What’s Inside (The Features):

• Hydrates & Nourishes: This intensive cuticle serum deeply moisturizes for a healthy, glowing look that is essential for your daily nail care.

• Supports Resilience: Our 12-free formula improves flexibility to support the appearance of healthy nail growth and prevent the brittle breakage caused by dehydration.

• Zero Grease Formula: This fast-absorbing nail serum utilizes small-molecule oils to penetrate the nail plate, intensely conditioning and improving hydration. This reduces the dry skin triggers that often lead to nail biting or picking.
  
  

• Ethical & Pure Shimmer: We use lab-grown Synthetic Mica (Synthetic Fluorphlogopite) to guarantee a 100% child-labour-free and heavy-metal-free sparkle. Unlike natural mica, which can have jagged edges on a microscopic level that irritate the skin, our high-standard synthetic version has smooth, uniform particles for a more brilliant, non-abrasive glow.

• Effortless Application: Enjoy mess-free instant hydration with our smooth-twist cuticle oil pen. Our travel-friendly serum pens are the perfect companion to our 15ml & 30ml bottles.

• Handmade Australian Quality: Every single batch of Unicorn Oil has been handcrafted in Melbourne since 2017.

• Consistent Daily Use: Applying our matrix-conditioning cuticle serum every day can maintain strong nail growth by helping your nails maintain their flexibility. Hard can sometimes mean dehydrated nails. (Yes! You definitely want SOME flex in your nails! This prevents nail lifting, read our blog on nail lifting)

• What does Strawberries & Cream smell like?

  It features top notes of fresh wild strawberries, middle notes of sweet sugar crystals, and a base of creamy vanilla bean.

• Will cuticle oil cause my gel to lift?

  No. In fact, regular oiling prevents lifting by keeping the natural nail and the enhancement flexible, stopping them from becoming brittle.

• Can I use this on my toes?

  Definitely! It is a fantastic treatment for dry toes and heels, keeping the skin around your pedicure soft and hydrated.

• Is this product vegan and cruelty-free?

  Yes. Like every product at Unicorn Lab, our Strawberries & Cream oil is 100% vegan and never tested on animals.

• What's the best way to apply Cuticle Oil?

  Apply like a pro!

  1. Apply a drop of the cuticle oil onto each hand and surrounding cuticle area. (One drop is enough for 5 nails!)
  2. Gently massage the oil into the skin and nails until fully absorbed.
  3. For best results, use morning and night to maintain hydrated and healthy cuticles.
  4. Apply after shower or washing hand for optimal results
  5. Patch test before use, especially for those with severe allergies. (our nail serums are nut free by the way!

  How to get the most out of your Unicorn Oil:

  • Daily Nutrition: Apply to the base of the nail and massage in to feed the nail matrix and promote healthy, natural growth.
  • Enhancement Aftercare: Use twice daily to prevent lifting in BIAB, Gel, and Acrylic sets. Nails expand in water and shrink when dehydrated, dry nails can shrink and pull away from your expensive mani. Keep your girls hydrated = less lifting. Flexible nails are strong nails!
  • Environmental Shield: Protects skin from dehydration caused by harsh weather, sanitizers, and frequent hand washing.
  • Nightly Ritual: Apply as the final step (but before lotions!) in your skincare routine for deep, overnight restoration.
  • Photo-Ready Finish: The perfect way to get that "fresh from the salon" glow for your latest nail-fies (Admit it,, we've all been guilty of taking a snap of a fancy cocktail or hard launching that new engagment ring!

  Pro-Tip: A little goes a long way. Our small-molecule formula is designed to absorb quickly— greasy fingerprints aren't welcome on our phone screens..

• Other cuticle oils on the market are Organic, why isn’t Unicorn Oil?

  The Unicorn Lab Transparency Standard

  We've looked into it, after hours and weeks of research, we found the top 20 brands claiming either 100% Organic or Certified Organic" - only 3 we found were able to prove they actually were based on their ingredients and product information.

  17/20 brands were at most only using an organic base - just like we do. So in short - most cuticle oils actually arn't 100% organic, let alone Certified - yikes.

  
  

  At Unicorn Lab, we prioritize total transparency over deceptive marketing. While our high-performance nail serum is built on a base of organic ingredients like Jojoba and Argan oils, claiming to be "100% organic" would be chemically and ethically inaccurate for two specific reasons: our ethical shimmer and our luxury fragrances.

  First, minerals like mica can never be certified organic. More importantly, we choose Synthetic Mica for our clean beauty formulations because it is the only way to guarantee a 100% child-labour-free and heavy-metal-free product. Second, we utilize premium, phthalate-free fragrance oils to ensure our signature aromas are long-lasting and stay true to their notes.

  Does Unicorn Oil use organic ingredients? YES!

  Is it STILL Organic after adding fragrance oils and colour? Not really - which is why we state our BASE ingredients are. Why? Let us explain:

  This 12-free, vegan approach ensures your daily routine effectively conditions the nail, supports the appearance of healthy nail growth, and helps soften the dry skin that triggers nail biting or picking. Our Australian-made cuticle serum—available in travel-ready pens, dropper bottles, and refills—is about prioritizing safety, education, and ethics.

  Our foundational nail educator training was held under strict European guidelines with top international mentors, emphasizing the critical link between product knowledge and client safety. These were held and enforced in the highest regard.

  These professional standards set the benchmark for how we approach nail care, and we hold those core values high to this day. This Australian formulated blend is designed to deliver the ultimate finish without the misleading labels—exactly the way professional systems should be.

• What exactly is "Clean Beauty" at Unicorn Lab?

  The Meaning of Clean Beauty

  Clean beauty refers to nail care products that are mindfully formulated with a focus on ingredient safety and transparency. At Unicorn Lab, we believe you shouldn't have to choose between your wellness and professional results.

  We refuse to market a "holy grail miracle" cuticle oil using sneaky tactics. Instead, we let our results and our ingredients do the talking.

  Our luxury nail serums are 12-Free, meaning we’ve intentionally excluded twelve of the most common irritants and harsh chemicals found in traditional nail care. Instead, we use a concentrated, high-performance blend that prioritizes nutrient-rich, plant-based ingredients to deliver a premium manicure experience without the compromise.

• How does a clean formula help with nail biting and nail picking?

  When the skin around the nail is dry and jagged, it creates a physical trigger for nail picking and nail biting. Our clean beauty approach focuses on deep, cellular hydration. By using organic ingredients that mimic the skin's natural sebum, we smooth those rough edges, removing the urge to pick and allowing for healthy, uninterrupted nail growth.

• How is "Synthetic" Better for Mica? Why not use natural ingredients?

  The Ethical Shimmer Standard

  While we prioritize organic ingredients in our oil base, choosing a synthetic alternative for our shimmer is a conscious, ethical decision. Natural mica is often linked to unregulated mining and human rights abuses. By choosing Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, we can guarantee:

  1. 100% Ethical Sourcing

  A completely transparent, lab-controlled supply chain that is guaranteed child labour-free.

  2. Higher Purity

  Zero risk of lead, arsenic, or mercury contamination that can occur in mined minerals.

  3. Superior Performance

  A brighter, more vibrant sparkle that outperforms natural minerals while remaining completely skin-safe and biodegradable.
