Unicorn Lab Clean Beauty Promise
Clean Beauty • Unicorn Cuticle Oil
What Clean Beauty Means at Unicorn Lab
Clean beauty is one of the most used terms in the beauty industry — but rarely explained clearly. At Unicorn Lab, it isn’t used as a label. It reflects a commitment to clarity, formulation transparency, and a higher standard for modern nail care.
Rather than relying on broad claims like “natural” or themed ingredients that sound premium but offer little functional value, Unicorn Lab focuses on clearly communicating what is in each cuticle oil, why it is included, and how the formula is designed to perform in professional nail environments and salon settings.
In many high-end beauty categories, products are positioned around a concept, scent, or ingredient story — often at a premium price point — without the same level of clarity around formulation. Unicorn Lab takes a different approach, focusing on balance, usability, and consistency rather than relying on filler oils, marketing language, or surface-level claims.
This approach supports consistent, predictable results and aligns with the expectations of high-end nail care, positioning Unicorn Lab as a luxury nail serum and cuticle oil brand for those looking for transparency, quality, and real formulation intent — not just branding.
The Unicorn Lab Standard
✦ Clear, accessible ingredient communication — not hidden behind marketing language
✦ Transparency around formulation choices and product design
✦ A focus on formulation quality over trend-based positioning
✦ Avoidance of fear-based or misleading claims (see our greenwashing audit)
✦ Consistency across all cuticle oil products and education
✦ A belief that customers should clearly understand what they are using — and why
Explore how this philosophy connects to our cuticle oil benefits, ingredient selection, and overall formulation approach.

Sex on the Beach Unicorn Cuticle Oil FAQs
-
What does Sex on the Beach Unicorn Oil smell like?
Sex on the Beach has a tropical cocktail-inspired scent with pineapple and cranberry at the top, peach and banana through the middle, and coconut with jasmine petals in the base. It smells fruity, beachy and slightly creamy, with a vacation-style finish that suits the Island Hopper collection.
-
What ingredients are in Sex on the Beach Unicorn Oil?
Sex on the Beach uses Unicorn Lab’s cuticle oil formula with Fractionated Coconut Oil, Jojoba Oil, Moroccan Argan Oil and Vitamin E. Unicorn Lab’s product page describes the formula as fast-absorbing and designed to condition the cuticle area without a heavy or greasy finish.
-
Is Sex on the Beach part of Australia’s largest cuticle oil range?
Yes. Sex on the Beach is part of Unicorn Lab’s wider Unicorn Oil range, which is positioned as Australia’s largest nail serum range and the original shimmer cuticle oil range. The range is trusted by salons, includes tropical scent choices like Sex on the Beach, and is designed for both professional salon use and at-home aftercare.
-
Can I use this oil on my body as well?
Absolutely! Our Unicorn Cuticle Oil not only hydrates and nourishes your cuticles but it is also great as a body oil!
-
Will this help with nail biting or skin picking?
Regular use can help reduce common triggers associated with nail biting and skin picking. By keeping the cuticles and surrounding skin well-hydrated, it helps minimise dryness, rough texture, and hangnails that often lead to picking. The added scent also provides a subtle sensory cue, encouraging more mindful nail care throughout the day.
Learn more about protecting nails and breaking the habit in our Nail Biting & Skin Picking Blog. -
What is cuticle oil used for?
Cuticle oil is used to hydrate the nail plate and surrounding skin, helping improve the appearance of dry cuticles and supporting overall nail health. Daily use can help maintain flexibility, which is important for reducing the look of brittle or damaged nails.
Formulas containing ingredients like jojoba oil, argan oil, and vitamin E are commonly used in professional nail care because they help condition the cuticle area without leaving a heavy residue. A non-greasy nail serum or shimmer cuticle oil can also enhance the look of the nails while keeping them hydrated.
If you’re unsure what to look for in the best cuticle oil, read our guide on choosing the right cuticle oil for your routine.
-
Will using cuticle oil lift acrylics or UV gel overlay?
No—when used correctly, cuticle oil does not cause lifting. In fact, regular use can help maintain the condition of the natural nail and surrounding skin, which supports better long-term retention of acrylics and gel overlays.
Lifting is typically caused by factors such as improper prep, contamination during application, or dehydration of the natural nail—not by post-application oil use. Applying cuticle oil after your service helps keep the nail environment balanced and flexible.
The key is timing: avoid applying oil immediately before or during a nail service, as this can interfere with adhesion. For daily maintenance, however, it’s considered an essential step in professional nail care routines.
-
What is the difference between cuticle oil and hand cream?
Cuticle oil and hand cream serve different purposes in nail care. Cuticle oil is designed to deliver targeted hydration to the nail plate and surrounding skin, helping improve cuticle condition and support healthier-looking nails. Hand cream, on the other hand, is formulated to hydrate the surface of the hands and may not provide the same focused care for the nail area.
A lightweight cuticle oil can absorb more efficiently around the nail, making it ideal for daily use—especially when applied with a cuticle oil pen for convenience. Many nail professionals recommend using both together for a complete routine. Learn more about application techniques in our cuticle oil guide.
