DARK BY RIOR — a brand trusted by nail professionals worldwide

DARK BY RIOR: A Brand Trusted by Professionals Worldwide

DARK BY RIOR is not just a name on a bottle. It’s a name heard daily in salons, studios, and training centers around the world. The brand was founded by a top-level nail technician from Ukraine who spent decades working hands-on with clients and knows firsthand: materials must be not only high quality but also comfortable to work with, predictable in performance, and consistent in results. That’s why our products are a direct answer to the real-world needs of nail professionals.

We produce gel polish in Ukraine that stands up to leading global competitors, while taking into account the specifics of local markets and aligning with European standards. Professionalism, innovation, and trust — these are the three core values embedded into every DARK BY RIOR formula, color, and base product.

Today, our professional partners operate in over 16 countries — including Poland, Italy, the Czech Republic, Spain, Germany, Serbia, Canada, and the United States. Every day, more professionals join us via our official website — from individual nail technicians to distributors, salon chains, and large e-commerce platforms.
