Olive & June Gel Nail Polish — You're Invited Lilac, HEMA-Free Long-Lasting Shine (Up to 21 Days)

Olive & June You're Invited Lilac is a HEMA-free gel polish that delivers salon-grade, high-shine color with up to 21 days of chip-resistant wear when cured with a UV/LED lamp.

This long-wearing gel polish blends a plump, glossy finish with a cleaner formulation built for repeated at-home manicures and pedicures. Formulated without HEMA and other common harmful ingredients, the shade "You're Invited Lilac" gives a rich, even lilac color that cures quickly under an LED lamp and removes without aggressive scraping or damage. The system pairs a gel base coat, two thin color layers, and a gel top coat for the best durability and shine.

How long will You're Invited Lilac last on my nails?

When applied correctly and cured with a compatible UV/LED lamp, this formula provides up to three weeks of wear for most users. Longevity depends on nail prep, application thickness, and daily activities.

• Best results follow base coat, two thin color coats, and top coat
• Cure times: 2 minutes per color coat, 1 minute for top coat with Olive & June LED lamp
