About

A qualified beautician and nail art enthusiast for over ten years, I trained in several Parisian institutes before fully dedicating myself to what I truly loved: helping women rediscover the ritual of self-care.

It was after years of searching — in vain — for a UV lamp that could rival professional equipment that the idea for SOLAYA emerged. I was convinced that a woman should never have to choose between quality and independence.

Today, I share my expertise through the SOLAYA Journal: honest tutorials, care rooted in experience, answers to the real questions no one takes time to explain properly.
