Beauty App Icon Illustration

We’re looking for a creative illustrator or graphic designer to help bring our brand vision to life by designing 80 cohesive badge icons for our mobile beauty app, Nailzotica.

Our app is a glam-forward, gamified nail design app where users create custom press-on nails and engage in contests, challenges, and a fun community. To boost user engagement, we’re adding a badge and reward system and need visually striking, cartoon-style icons to match the app’s personality.

What We Need:
-80 badge icons (cartoon-style vector illustrations)
-Icons should follow a cohesive style (color, line weight, layout)
-Each icon represents a different achievement or reward (e.g., “Claw Queen”, “Sticker Savage”, “Glam Giver”, etc.)
-Style direction: Y2K pop / playful cartoon / girly vector aesthetic
-Use of soft pinks, lavenders, pastel tones, holographic vibes

All icons should be:
-Flat vector-style (SVG or high-res transparent PNG)
-Designed with thick dark gray outlines
-Set on a soft background with white sparkles or light gradients
-High-resolution and mobile-app friendly

Example Elements to Illustrate:
Some icons include:
-Hands with manicured nails
-Crowns, wands, sparkles
-Nail polish bottles, charms, stickers
-Trophies, hearts, phones, chat bubbles, etc.

We will provide:
-A full list of 80 badge names + descriptions
-A visual style guide and brand colors
-Sample inspiration/mood boards (Duolingo badges, Sephora app elements, etc.)

Deliverables:
-80 icons (transparent background PNG or SVG)
-Consistent style across all icons
-Final files delivered in organized folders (with clear naming)

Ideal Candidate:
-Experience creating mobile UI icons or game badges
-Strong portfolio in vector illustration, cartoon-style graphics, or Y2K / pop aesthetic
-Detail-oriented and organized
-Able to communicate clearly and meet deadlines

Bonus: Experience with feminine or beauty-related brands

Budget & Timeline:
-Open to fixed-price or milestone-based offers
-Ideal timeline: Delivery within 1–2 weeks
