GUEST SPEAKING & EDUCATION
Gel Nail Science, translated for nail industry audiences.
talks, lectures, educational events and written pieces.
Bespoke talks or written pieces tailored to your event or audience.
Mani-Science© is focused on helping to spread correct, science-backed knowledge - which means sharing this with brands and industry events is really important to us.
As a both scientist & nail tech - Lotte can create talks, lectures or written pieces for brands, events and nail communities, taking complicated Gel Nail Science and explaining it in a way that actually makes sense to nail professionals.
Each talk or written piece is shaped around the host, the audience and what you would like them to learn, as long as the content remains factual and supported by the available science.
The aim is simple: to give nail techs useful knowledge they can understand, take away and apply - without talking down to them or teaching them what they already know.
science from both sides
Lotte understands the science and research, but I also understand the nail techs sitting in the audience.
She knows what nail professionals are commonly taught, what is often missing and how overwhelming scientific terminology can feel when it isn’t explained properly.
Lotte bring those two sides together -combining scientific research with a genuine understanding of nail tech life.
LOTTE'S QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE AT A GLANCE.
BSc HONS DENTAL TECHNOLOGY
MSc BIOMATERIALS & REGENERATIVE MEDICINE
Lotte's undergraduate degree BSc Hons Dental Technology covered the manufacture of dental devices alongside the science of polymeric, metallic and ceramic materials, their properties and their use within the human body.
Her master’s degree MSc Biomaterials & Regenerative Medicine expanded her knowledge beyond dental materials, focusing more widely on biomaterials, regenerative medicine and the ways materials interact with biological systems.
Since launching Mani‑Science® in 2024, Lotte has taught Gel Nail Science through my educational handbooks, online courses, online seminars and delivered talks for brands including OPI and Nail Order, as well as at nail events and trade shows.
Lotte is happy to work with the host to shape the topic, format and intended learning outcomes.
However, the final content must remain aligned with the available science and evidence. She can adapt how the information is communicated - but not change what the evidence says to support a preferred message.
EDUCATIONAL SUBJECTS
EDUCATIONAL TOPICS AVAILABLE.
Understand what gel nail products are, how their ingredients work together and what happens as the product changes from uncured into a cured state.
A clear breakdown of what these ingredients are scientifically speaking, why they are used and what changes to legislation actually mean for brands, nail professionals and their clients.
Explore how sensitisation can develop from a scientific perspective, the role of repeated exposure and the practical steps that can help reduce avoidable risk.
Understand photoinitiators, light wavelengths, curing requirements and why the relationship between a gel product and its lamp matters.
Learn how to look beyond marketing language and better understand ingredient lists, “free-from” claims and the terminology used to sell gel nail products.
Explore how to assess the reliability of a claim, recognise when information lacks context and separate genuine evidence from opinion or social media panic.
Give nail professionals the knowledge to assess products and brand claims for themselves, rather than relying entirely on popularity, marketing or somebody else’s opinion.
Have a specific question or current industry subject in mind? Lotte can research and develop a talk around it, provided it falls within her area of knowledge and can be supported by reliable evidence.

previous experience
BRANDS LOTTE HAS WORKED ALONGSIDE.
Lotte has previously delivered Gel Nail Science education for brands including OPI and Nail Order, alongside talks at nail events and trade shows including Nailtopia.
Every audience is different, so she doesn't simply deliver the same presentation in every room. The content and level are shaped around who is attending and what they genuinely need from the session.
