Using Everything Magpie...
In 2025 I rebranded to Magpie Beauty and I now use their products for Gel overlays on both hands and feet and builder gel. Magpie are firm believers that nail products are prescriptive, just like skin care it is not a case of one fits all. Here at The Little Beautician, before treatment begins every client will have a short consultation to access which nail products will work best on their nails to maintain nail health and achieve long lasting results. With a wide variety of different base coats and gel options, there is something for everyone!

Infills (time varies)
Infills are now available to book with your Gel Manicures / Builder Gel. Infills are recommended to be booked regularly instead of soaking off at every appointment.
Gel Removal ( Soak off) 45 mins
This treatment is the removal of Gel Polish, an e file may be used to remove the top layer and then nails are soaked in acetone and removed professionally. Your nails will be filed & shaped and left with cuticle oil and hand cream.
- Please make Sam aware if you need to have your gels removed prior to your treatment
- If you don't book an Gel Removal, and arrive with gels on please note I will have to reduce your treatment time if I have another client after you. I strongly recommend re-booking with me to have your gel polish removed professionally. Removing gels in-properly or at home can damage your natural nail.
