Collection: LIGHT ELEGANCE

Light Elegance started in 1999 in Eugene, Oregon. Lezlie McConnell owned and operated a luxury salon and her husband, Jim, was a polymer chemist working with polyurethane systems used in the wood products and transportation industries. Turns out it was a brilliant combination. Jim and Lezlie have always been interested in how to make things better for their technicians – how can the products they all use day in and day out be better? Safer? Economic? More attractive to customers?

The products that Jim and Lezlie created and tested (and tested) in the salon became popular with both technicians and clients, and business grew. And it grew. They took a chance, made a plan, and began creating, manufacturing, and selling Light Elegance beyond their own doors. Lezlie sold the salon and Jim left his position as corporate chemist. And a Light Elegance was born.

Here's what worked then and still works now: Light Elegance nail products are odorless, easy to apply, and have strength and flexibility for full sets and fills. Light Elegance also offers a wide range of non-yellowing products that can be applied over gels, acrylics, wraps and natural nails. Lezlie dreams of the colors each season and Jim gets to work improving the formulas than last year. It is as simple and as difficult as that.
