Six easy steps to apply:
Ingredients/Our Promise

Polyacrylic Acid: a non-toxic thicken and gelling agent, used in many cosmetics - and in diapers!
Acrylates Copolymer: improves adhesion, water resistance, and texture - makes our gel wraps stay on for weeks
Glycerine Propoxylate: low in toxicity and with minimal environmental impact, this makes the gel nails flexible enough to apply, yet thick enough to hold their shape before fully curing
Triacrylate: the crucial component that cures the strips! When exposed to light, triacrylates link together through a process called polymerization, creating a solid, durable network - i.e., a hardened gel nail
Isopropylthioxanthone: this is a photoinitiator, which is necessary to kickstart the reaction that hardens the semi-cured gel into a durable nail coating. It is a highly efficient photoinitiator, which means it requires a small amount (60 seconds!) to effectively cure the nail (and, less time under UV = better for your skin)

Depending on the color of your gel, the following coloring agents may be included: barium lake, calcium lake, aluminum lake, dioxide,aluminum powder, bismuth oxychloride (to add shine).

I've never done my nails before - how do I get started?

We believe the Livi Gel Mani Systemā„¢ is so easy, that even non-DIYers can master using it. There is a little bit of a learning curve, but make sure to check out our videos on ourlearn howĀ page. We also offer office hours on our Instagram Live or email us for a 1:1 consultation.er

Does the UV lamp damage my skin?

Our UV lamp is much less harmful than salon lamps because it's smaller and uses lower voltage (6 Watt UV lights versus 50 Watt UV lights at the salon), and our gel stickers are more than 60% cured when you put them on your nails. But if you want extra peace of mind, just wear our UV protective gloves.

Do I have to cut and file my nails?

Yep, but donā€™t worryā€”weā€™ve got super easy instructions to help you get the perfect shape.

What about cutting cuticles?

We actually advise against cutting your cuticles. Just gently push them back to keep your nails healthy. Cutting cuticles is a myth that salons often push, but itā€™s not necessary and can actually do more harm than good. Check out more information on why you shouldnā€™t cut your cuticles here.

How do I remove a Livi Manicureā„¢?

Removing a Livi Manicureā„¢ is a breeze. Simply use the cuticle oil pen and gently lift the gel with the stickā€”voilĆ ! Click here for an in-depth video on removal.

Do my nails get damaged when I remove Livi Manicureā„¢?

Nope! Unlike the salon, where gel manicures can thin and damage your nails, our manicure is designed to be easily and safely at home if you follow the removal steps.. Just apply cuticle oil and use the stick to lift the nail.

Why is the nail salon so miserable and such a time suck?

Honestly, it feels like a conspiracy against womenā€™s valuable time. Weā€™re here to change that.
