EMA Liquid Monomer · LAVIS Purple UV Liquid E.M.A 8 oz — 8 oz starter size EMA monomer with built-in UV inhibitor — the right size for home-studio acrylic work or a salon's secondary station.
What It Does
LAVIS Purple UV Liquid E.M.A 8 oz is a professional Ethyl Methacrylate acrylic monomer with a UV inhibitor that resists yellowing under salon lighting and sunlight. Mixed with acrylic powder, it creates a strong, smooth, self-leveling acrylic bead with predictable set time. EMA is the salon-safe industry standard — MMA is banned for salon use because it bonds too aggressively to the natural nail.
Why Pros Choose This
- Pure EMA chemistry: MMA-free and salon-compliant
- UV inhibitor prevents yellowing over time
- Self-leveling for smooth sculpting and minimal filing
- 8 oz starter size — ideal for home-studio or low-volume techs
How to Use
- Pour a small amount into a clean dappen dish — keep main bottle sealed
- Dip acrylic brush into monomer, then into powder to form a bead (~1.5:1 liquid to powder)
- Place bead on prepped nail and shape within 30–60 seconds
- Allow each bead to air-cure fully before filing
Best For
Home-studio owners starting an acrylic kit, salons running acrylic as a secondary service, techs testing the system before scaling up to 16 oz or 32 oz.
