9 What types of polish does MiniLuxe offer?
We offer three types of polish for hands and feet: MiniLuxe Pure Polish, Performance Polish, and Gel Polish. Our colors are curated seasonally to reflect the latest runway trends. Learn more about our polish selection on our Services page.
10 MiniLuxe Pure Polish is 8-free. What does that mean?
MiniLuxe Pure Polish is ingredient-conscious without sacrificing quality. Our formula is 8-free, meaning it’s free of the following eight ingredients typically found in nail polish that have been linked to toxicity: Formaldehyde, Toluene, DBP (Dibutyl Phthalate), Formaldehyde Resin, Camphor, TPHP (Triphenyl Phosphate), Ethyl Tosylamide, and Xylene.
11 What if I already have gel on my nails?
For clients with existing light-setting gel manicures or pedicures, please be sure to book your service with gel removal. This is an additional 15 minute service that ensures we have enough time to remove your gel in the safest way possible. If you do not select gel removal we cannot guarantee your services will be performed in full. Please note we do not remove hard gel (acrylics or dip powder).
12 Do you service or remove acrylic or hard gel?
We aren't able to work with acrylic or hard gel, including dip powder. We strive to perform all services in the safest and healthiest way possible and only remove light-setting soft gels at this time.
13 How can I keep my nails healthy and fresh after leaving the studio?
We recommend applying MiniLuxe Pure Shine two days after your service and MiniLuxe Nourishing Oil as needed. MiniLuxe Nourishing Oil contains a light yet nutrient-rich blend of grapeseed and avocado oil, vitamin E, and pure essential oils, perfect for enhancing nail health regardless of season. MiniLuxe Pure Polish is also great for touch ups when you aren’t near a studio.
14 What if my polish chips?
Our Chip Fix Policy guarantees you a flawless polish application for up to three (3) days for Signature services, five (5) days for Performance services, and seven (7) days for Gel services. If your polish chips within this time, simply call our Concierge Team at (617) 684-2750 to schedule a time to stop in and we’ll take care of the rest. Please note our Chip Fix Policy is not valid at the MiniLuxe Training Studio.
