THE HONEST COMPARISON
How Muuni compares
Salon gel, regular polish, press-ons — we've tried them all.
Every nail option asks a trade-off. Damage, time, or wear. Muuni was built to skip all three.
Real gel nails at home — cures under the lamp, wears 14+ days, peels off without damage. Pick your two designs below.
14+ days with proper application. Three things decide it: clean, oil-free nails before you start, firm pressure at the edges, and a full cure under the lamp. The how-to below covers all three.
Strips: Acrylic Copolymer, Polyurethane, UV Gel. 10-free — no formaldehyde, toluene, DBP, camphor, formaldehyde resin, xylene, parabens, fragrances, phthalates, or animal ingredients. Fragrance-free, no chemical smell. Dermatest® certified, rated "excellent." Vegan and cruelty-free. Full ingredient lists for the top gel, base gel and remover are on their product pages.
This kit always ships free. From Oslo, [1–3] business days within Norway. Unopened products can be returned within [14] days — opened strips can't be returned, for hygiene reasons.

For: 'Your first Muuni'
Thank you for choosing
healthier nails
Better nails. Better you.
Wash and dry your nails. Apply a thin layer of Peel Off Base Gel and cure under the lamp for 60+ seconds.
Pick a strip slightly smaller than your nail. Press firmly from the cuticle out, trim the excess, cure 45+ seconds per nail.
One layer of Non-Wipe Top Gel, one last cure. No wiping, no drying time — the gloss is the finish.
Days later, when you want a new design: drop the remover along the cuticle, push with the wooden stick, and the whole manicure peels off in one piece. No acetone. Your nail underneath: no damage.
Let's change the nail standard with us
Muuni was founded on a simple objection: the nail industry has a long history of asking women to tolerate damage. Founded in Norway, 2026. Formulated in Korea.
Built for the woman who has already decided to take better care of herself.
This kit is the whole idea in one box.

Yes. The first time takes about 20 minutes, and the method is three moves: press, trim, cure. Nothing sets until the lamp — a crooked strip lifts off and goes on again. By your second manicure it feels like routine.
The strips are multi-curing: LED, sunlight, or a UV lamp you already own. The kit's Dual LED Lamp is the fastest route — one minute per cure. Sunlight works on a bright day; it asks for more patience.
Yes. Strips trim to any length once applied, and short nails hold the cured gel the same way long ones do. Several of our designs sit best on short nails.
No — this is the reason Muuni exists. The Peel Off Base Gel goes on first and releases the whole manicure without acetone or filing. The formulas are 10-free, HEMA-free and Dermatest® certified. Your nail underneath stays yours.
They will. Each pack carries 36 strips in 9 sizes, so every nail starts with a close match. Semi-cured gel stays soft until the lamp — so you can stretch the strip to close the last millimetre, width and curve alike. Trim the excess, cure. The fit locks in.
Two full manicures at minimum, with spares left for single-nail fixes. At 14+ days of wear each, one pack carries you through a month. After this kit, a fresh design costs one strip pack.
