Is gelishnzstudio.shop a scam?

This was a scam. The site is now gone.

Fake Gelish NZ store selling gel nail polish and salon supplies

This site copies Gelish NZ's online store of gel nail polish and salon supplies, but it's part of a known scam network and isn't run by Gelish NZ. Stores like this are unlikely to deliver the real product, and may use card details typed at checkout for nefarious purposes.

Reasons for concern

  • Copies a real company's store under another address

    The contact email on gelishnzstudio.shop is at gelishnz.com, which belongs to Gelish NZ. Gelish NZ does not run this copy.

  • Part of a network of thousands of copied stores

    Same kit and hosting as thousands of other copied stores, and gelishnzstudio.shop is already on HaGeZi's public threat list.

  • Every price cut by 70%

    ENERGY Scrub 226g is $10.51 instead of $35.05.

  • Reviews written by the kit, not by customers

    Five-star quotes such as 'The color selection is incredible and the finish lasts for weeks without a single chip, Best salon-quality results' are signed Sarah M., a signature that appears on thousands of other copied stores.

  • More copies of the same store

    Another copy of Gelish NZ's store was online in mid-September 2026: gelishnzdirect.shop.

  • Template text left in place

    The page still carries the sample address john@example.com, left over from the store template.

  • The site has since disappeared

    When we checked on 23 September 2026, the web address no longer led anywhere.
