Gel-X Nail Extension
The Next Generation of Damage-Free Nails
Discover the next era of nail enhancements with the latest evolution of the Gel-X® system, meticulously redesigned to deliver an effortlessly smooth and flawless application.
As the pioneer of full-coverage soft gel extensions, this revolutionized system reshapes the industry by offering a more inclusive, precise, and user-friendly experience for every nail type. Crafted entirely from premium soft gel, these full-cover tips mimic the natural look and feel of your own nails while guaranteeing zero damage to the nail bed.
The entire system is completely soak-off, allowing for a gentle, effortless removal process without harsh drilling or scraping. Because they provide a perfectly smooth and structured canvas right out of the box, you can instantly apply any gel polish, lacquer, or intricate nail art directly on top, giving you ultimate creative freedom while maintaining unmatched durability.

BIAB Nails
BIAB (Builder In A Bottle) is a popular, durable soak-off gel overlay used to strengthen natural nails and encourage healthy growth without extensions. Acting as a 5-in-1 primer, base, builder, and colour system, it is applied directly to the natural nail and can last up to 3–4 weeks, making it especially suitable for weak or brittle nails.
Known for its lightweight feel and long-lasting finish, BIAB helps protect natural nails while maintaining a clean, polished appearance. Its flexible formula supports everyday comfort while reducing breakage, lifting, and chipping. With its soft, natural-looking shades and refined finish, BIAB has become a favourite among those who prefer an elegant, minimal aesthetic while still wanting durable, healthy-looking nails.
Especially loved by clients experiencing nail thinning, peeling, or frequent breakage, BIAB offers a practical yet luxurious solution for stronger, more resilient nails. Whether worn alone for a natural look or combined with gel polish, it delivers long-lasting results without compromising comfort or appearance.

What are the benefits of a professional Spray Tan?
Spray Tan
Spray tanning is a safe and effective alternative to traditional sunbathing and UV tanning, allowing you to achieve a natural sun-kissed glow without exposing your skin to harmful ultraviolet rays. Excessive UV exposure is known to accelerate premature ageing and increase the risk of skin cancer.
The active ingredient used in most spray tans, Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), is a sugar-derived compound that interacts with the amino acids on the skin’s surface to create a temporary bronzed effect. The result typically lasts between 8 to 10 days and fades gradually and evenly over time.
Unlike UV tanning, spray tanning does not damage the skin’s deeper layers or contribute to collagen and elastin breakdown, helping to preserve the skin’s firmness and overall appearance. Many modern tanning solutions are also enriched with nourishing ingredients such as Aloe Vera, Vitamin E, and Hyaluronic Acid to support hydration and maintain smooth, healthy-looking skin.
For those looking to enjoy a radiant tan while prioritising long-term skin health, spray tanning offers a convenient, non-invasive, and skin-conscious solution.
Express Spray Tan / Golden Glow
Express Spray Tan is the ideal solution for nearly all skin tones, especially for those who prefer not to wait long for their tan to develop.
Depending on your skin tone and desired depth—from a light glow to a deep bronze—this tan can be left to develop for 1 to 4 hours. It provides a natural, confidence-boosting holiday glow that lasts up to 8 days.
Please note: This treatment is not recommended during pregnancy.
Classic Spray Tan
Classic Spray Tan Solution is a popular choice, perfectly suited for clients who tan well in the sun or those looking to enhance an existing glow. Whether you desire a light, sun-kissed look or a deeper bronze, this solution delivers an immaculate, natural-looking, and even colour.
The tan develops fully over 8 hours, leaving your skin feeling refreshed and looking radiant thanks to our high-quality, enriching extracts. You can enjoy your glow with total peace of mind, as our formula is 100% Cruelty-Free. Lasts up to 8 days.
Please note: This treatment is not recommended during pregnancy.

Common Questions
What brands of polish do you use?
Our top-choice brands include OPI, CND, Essie, The GelBottle (BIAB), and DND. We favour these brands because they are 100% vegan-friendly and cruelty-free, aligning with our commitment to ethical and sustainable beauty practices.
What's the difference between gel extensions and gel polish?
Essentially, gel extensions are nail enhancements where a "faux" nail is applied over the natural nail to add length or change the shape. These can cover the entire nail or be applied as tips.
In contrast, gel polish (often referred to as Shellac) is a long-lasting polish applied directly to the natural nail. It does not add length but provides a durable, high-shine finish.
The removal processes are also different. While gel polish is easily soaked off and causes no damage when handled professionally, gel extensions require a more intensive removal process. If not removed correctly, extensions can be more taxing on the natural nail.
How long does gel / shellac polish last?
Depending on your nail type and how well they are maintained, results will vary. On average, a gel or Shellac manicure lasts between 10 to 14 days.
