Shellac Pedicures and Manicures
Shellac Pedicure
What is Shellac nail varnish?
Shellac nail colours go on like a varnish but dry and wear like gel. Starting with a base coat, your nail technician will then apply the colour, finishing with a top coat. Your nails will be cured under a UV lamp between each coat and after the final coat, a tiny lick of alcohol will be used so the varnish dries hard and glossy. Choose Shellac nail varnish for:
- zero dry time
- 10 day+ wear, (as long as you aren't rock climbing)
- a beautiful mirror shine every time
- protected nails that are tough and flexible
- safe, easy removal in around 10 minutes
Removing false nails can leave your natural tips looking a bit sorry for themselves. Shellac nail varnish takes around 15 minutes to remove and leaves your natural nails completely undamaged, requiring no filing, buffing or priming!
Shellac Pedicure
Procedure is that of a basic pedicure but with a fantastic Shellac colour applied at the end. This is great for the winter as you do not have to wait for the colour to dry before wriggling those toes back into your boots!

Feet are checked and filed, they are then placed in a foot spa of warm water and invigorating foot soak
Each foot is dried and the cuticles are pushed back and nails clipped and filed
The feet are exfoliated with an invigorating foot scrub to remove dead skin cells and increase circulation
Feet are placed back in the foot spa and rinsed
The feet are then dried and each foot is massaged with a rich moisturising lotion
A paraffin wax foot mask is then applied and your feet are placed inside booties for 5 mins. The warmth of the paraffin wax helps soften the skin and increases circulation
The mask is removed and the feet massaged
