Get the perfect mani in moments thanks to this Perth beauty startup

Anyone that likes to have a fresh set of nails will be all-too-familiar with the struggles of keeping that mani looking magic.

You spend what feels like forever, hands shaking, air drying, trying to get that traditional nail polish looking perfect… Only to end up hiding the inevitable smudges, dents, and chips that happen in no time.

Or, you spend an eternity (and a small fortune) getting a fresh gel set… Only to end up with paper-thin, damaged natural nails after some overzealous removals.

Started by two local besties, Perth-based small business MANILAB is changing the nail game with their semi-cured gel nail stickers. An at-home or on-the-go system, the stickers only take minutes to apply, and just 60 seconds under an LED lamp to cure completely – leaving a glossy, perfect manicure that’ll look fresh for over two weeks.

“We are thrilled to introduce our semi-cured gel nail stickers,” say co-founders Aleks and Flavia.

“Our aim is to provide a product that not only enhances the beauty of your nails but also aligns with the modern individual’s desire for non-toxic, budget-friendly options that seamlessly fit into their self-care routines.”

The range includes 20 different styles, from the Hailey Beiber-inspired, sheer “Glazed Donut”, to classic French tips, the perfect everyday nude or playful pastels for a pop of colour.

Created from triple-layered strips of non-toxic gel polish that have been 60% cured, the stickers have increased resistance to chipping or cracking – and most importantly, are super gentle to remove, leaving your nails healthy, happy and as strong as ever.
