Adrienne, I had the same problem many years ago when I went into business with my "DAD". He ran his hair business and I ran my nail business. Ultimate Lyte by Star Nail is the whole reason I ever started working for Tony Cuccio. It is 100% odor free. As an obsessive compulsive control freak I can assure you it is liquid and powder! The only difference it does not cure through evaporation (where the smell comes into play) but does use the uv light to cure. The up side of a liquid that does not evaporate, a typical 8oz bottle of liquid will last you longer in Ultimate Lyte than traditional monomers that evaporate. Also, because it's not curing while you are working, you get to master your application and spend almost no time filing. Anyone that is intimidated by acrylics, ends up loving U.Lyte. At the time I started doing it, I was only offering Fiberglass Nails.

Both the Ultimate Lyte and Eco Odor Free Acrylics use the same liquid formula....however, the Eco Odor Free Acrylic uses a different formulation of powder. I found the clarity to be much better when I did the testing on this newer powder. I'm still in editing on the DVD. But right after the first of the year, I'll have the complete Star DVD finished and both Ultimate Lyte and Eco Odor Free are on the DVD. Good LUCK!
