Luminary is a multi-flex, structured gel that combines the strength of acrylic with the flexibility of hard gel. It is designed to support and protect your natural nails while giving you a glossy, natural-looking finish. If you want structure and durability without the rigidity of acrylic, Luminary is an excellent middle ground. Pink Beauty is conveniently located in Old Strathcona and offers evening and weekend appointments to fit your schedule.

Removal costs less when you add it to another appointment than when you book it on its own — it takes less chair time that way. Both options are here so you can choose:
Nail Extension Removal — on its own
$30
A standalone appointment to take off acrylic, gel, or Gel-X extensions. Gentle filing and soaking, taking the time to do it properly.
Nail Extension Removal — added to another service
$20
The same careful removal, added to a new set or fill in the same visit.
Gel Polish / Shellac Removal — on its own
$15
A standalone appointment to soak off gel polish or shellac, leaving your nails clean and ready.
Gel Polish / Shellac Removal — added to another service
$10
The same removal, added to another appointment in the same visit.
Please don’t peel or force extensions off at home — that is what damages the natural nail. Book a removal, and we’ll take them off gently.

Luminary is a structured, multi-flex gel system. It sits between acrylic and soft gel: strong enough to hold shape and length, flexible enough to move with your natural nail, and finished with a glossy, natural look.
Acrylic is the strongest and most rigid, best for bold length and shape. Gel extensions are the lightest and most flexible. Luminary sits in between — structured and supportive, but with more flex than acrylic. If you’ve found acrylic too rigid or gel not structured enough, Luminary is usually the answer.
To keep your Luminary nails looking their best, fills are recommended every 2–3 weeks. With regular fills you can maintain the set for as long as you like.
