Nail Care

For the heels after a summer of sandals. Manucurist’s 180-grit glass foot file works on damp skin, takes its time, and rinses clean under the tap.

Step one, after the Degreaser: Manucurist Green Base Coat, one thin coat under your color so the manicure starts on something even. Vegan, acetone-free removal.

Sheer gold glitter with tiny stars in it, alone for a scattered sparkle or over any Green shade on New Year’s Eve. Manucurist Green nail polish in Gold, 9-free.

The wedding-week pink, or the job-interview pink: sheer pastel with a drop of beige. Manucurist Green nail polish in Pale Rose, air-dry, 9-free, vegan.

Try it over Dark Pansy when the weather turns. Manucurist Matte Top Coat takes any Green polish matte in one coat, air-dry. Works over cured Green Flash too.

Blue glitter for the swim-team kid, or the one who’s certain she’s a mermaid. Petite Manucurist Bonnie the Mermaid water-based kids’ nail polish, 8 mL.

For the kid who’s always drawing: Barbouille, the charcoal-and-silver glitter in Manucurist’s Barbapapa kids’ nail polish line. Water-based, 8 mL, washes off.

For the travel bag: Manucurist Magic Dip Remover, the acetone-free pot for Green and Active air-dry polish. One finger at a time, no cotton pads. Vegan.

One swipe per nail, right before base coat, so the polish has something clean to hold. Manucurist Degreaser, 94.5% plant-based prep for a Green manicure. 30 mL.
