The Ritual FAQ
Everything you'd ask your nail artist — answered like a friend.
The product, honestly
About the Salon Ritual™
Do I really not need a base coat or top coat?
Correct. It's a true one-step formula: it bonds like a base, colours like a lacquer and self-seals with a high-gloss finish. One thin coat is enough; two give extra depth.
How long does it actually last?
Up to 14 days chip-free with proper prep (push cuticles back, light buff, wipe clean, thin coats). Most women re-do it because they want a new shade, not because it chipped.
Is it safe for my nails? Do I need a special lamp?
The formula is a salon-grade LED-cure gel — the same kind of chemistry professional studios use. The mini LED lamp is included and matched to the formula; you don't need anything else. Avoid contact with skin before curing and never peel the gel off.
How do I remove it?
Buff the shine off, soak a cotton pad in acetone, wrap each nail in foil for 10 minutes and gently push the gel off with the cuticle stick. A drop of cuticle oil afterwards and you're ready for the next shade.
Which shade should I pick?
Milk and Cloud for a clean, quiet-luxury look. Blush for the perfect everyday nude. Cherry Noir when you want people to ask which salon you go to. Espresso for autumn, evenings and everything chic. Still unsure? Email us your skin tone — we'll match you.
