1. How can I get LCN products for personal use?
For the first time, the same LCN quality products used in the world's top spas are available for purchase by the individual consumer. LCN body treatments, exclusive LCN nail care supplies, hand creams, foot care products and more, can all bring the full salon experience to the comfort of your home. However, LCN light cured nail applications and microdermabrasion treatments remain available only in spas. These treatments do require specialized beauty technicians who are experienced and trained to provide the best possible results.

2. What are Light Concept Nails (LCN)?
LCN nails are incredibly natural looking artificial nails created with an innovative light-cured gel system. The product is applied as a gel and then placed in a light unit for 2 minutes to harden.

3. What is the difference between LCN nails and acrylics?
Acrylics contain harsh chemicals that can damage natural nails, and have strong, unpleasant odors. LCN products are safe, look more natural, and are far more durable than conventional acrylic nails. Added elasticity means less breakage, and the LCN hand and nail care product line guarantees that nails will continue to look stunning and new in between regular treatments.

4. What separates LCN from similar light cured nails?
LCN is the original pioneer of light cured nail systems, having debuted the technology in Europe in 1985. LCN remains the #1 nail system in Europe, and the third largest in the world. LCN products are the result of Wilde Cosmetics GmbH and its skilled German chemists and beauty technicians. We have a history and reputation in the industry that others simply can not match.

5. Don't Gel nails break easier?
LCN light cured nails are not traditional gels. They are light-cured synthetic resins that become hard when cured in the light unit. An intentional amount of flexibility remains, and this actually prevents breakage. Like the wings of an airplane, a modest amount of flexibility actually protects the nail from breakage, lifting, and snapping.

6. Will everyone know I'm wearing "fake nails"?
No! The beauty of LCN is in the clean, natural look with and without polish. Each nail is individually sculpted to suit your individual nail shape, resulting in a highly natural looking nail treatment. Unlike conventional acrylics and gels, light cured nails achieve an elegant, natural final result.

7. I've just had acrylics. Are my nails too damaged to use LCN?
No. The products behind LCN Concept NNC (Natural Nail Care) are specifically formulated for clients who prefer to keep their natural nails… or are looking for safe, effective treatments to strengthen and repair weak and damaged nails. LCN also offers a Nail Stabilizer System to repair damaged nail plates before new artificial products are applied. We also offer a variety of products that will camouflage imperfections in previously damaged nails. And remember, because LCN products do not contain harsh chemicals, you'll never have to worry about adding further damage to your nails.

8. Will my nails stain from gardening, housecleaning, or other activities?
No. Once they harden, LCN nails are completely non-porous. That means nothing can penetrate or stain the nail!

9. What ingredients are in LCN?
Ingredients vary by product. We always respect our clients' rights to know the ingredients used on their nails. MSDS sheets and ingredient lists for individual products are always available upon request. Most importantly, we take pride in using only non-toxic ingredients in all our products. In fact, many LCN products (including those in the LCN Spa Series), contain all-natural ingredients that provide healthy peace of mind: tigergrass, whit tea, orchid, mint oil and aloe vera, to name a few.
