I’m a beginner. Which products are easiest to learn?

Why is Light Elegance HEMA Free?

While many brands use it for adhesion and lowering costs, we avoid it along with HEA and IBOA to drastically lower the risk of allergies. Small molecular sized monomers like HEMA are known to penetrate the skin more easily causing irritation and often leading to nail allergies, unlike our state-of-the-art formulations high in premium oligomers.

At Light Elegance, we prioritize quality and safety. We manufacture products from scratch here in Redmond, Oregon with high-quality ingredients to minimize allergic responses for industry safety. We believe, What's Inside Matters!

I want to switch my entire salon to LE, do you offer special pricing?

We’re thrilled you’re ready to bring Light Elegance into your salon! Yes, we offer special pricing for full-line purchases and large salon orders. Please contact our team at sales@lightelegance.com so we can create a custom package that fits your needs and makes your transition to LE seamless.

QUESTIONS ABOUT LE? WE’VE GOT ANSWERS

Where can I purchase LE products?

If you are located in the US, you can shop directly through lightelegance.com. If you are located outside of the US or would like to shop from an LE Distributor, you can view our LE Distributor Locator to find one closest to you!

How do I become an LE Ambassador?

If you love LE and want to share that love with others, our Ambassador Program could be perfect for you! We open applications throughout the year, but you can always apply here.

I am having lifting issues, what am I doing wrong?

Lifting can happen for a variety of reasons, but don’t worry, it’s usually something simple to correct. Here’s our troubleshooting checklist to help you get long-lasting results:

  1. Proper nail prep is essential for adhesion. Be sure to follow the Light Elegance Nail Prep Method to remove oils, debris, and shine from the nail plate. Skipping or rushing prep is one of the most common causes of lifting. Tutorial here!
  2. Many lamps on the market aren’t designed to cure professional-grade gels like ours. We recommend using the Light Elegance LEDdot to ensure your gels are fully cured. If you’re a busy nail pro, also check your lamp’s cure thickness regularly. See this tutorial here.
  3. Select a bonding product that works best for your client’s nail type and the service being performed. The right bond layer helps your gel stay put. (Ex: Tack is our most versatile bonder, but for those clients prone to lifting, they may require AirBond before Tack!)
  4. Thin, even layers are key, but don’t skimp on structure. For longer nails, be sure to build enough of an apex to prevent lifting from stress on the nail.

By following these steps, you’ll drastically reduce lifting issues and enjoy beautiful, long-lasting enhancements.

I've experienced a reaction to another brand's products, can I use Light Elegance?

We always recommend checking with your doctor and/or dermatologist prior to trying new gel products if you have discovered you have a reaction to certain ingredients. It is also recommended that your allergy symptoms are completely healed before trying another system.

Because we believe "What's Inside Matters," we provide all of our product's SDS sheets here, so you can feel confident about the products you're using! If you'd like to learn more about nail allergies and how to read SDS sheets, check out our Chemist Corner series with Head Chemist & Co-Owner, Jim McConnell.
