Busy mum, neglected hands? Not a chance. Manucurist has crafted portable nail care essentials to support beauty lovers through every moment of their day. Hydrate nails, nourish cuticles and maintain soft, healthy-looking hands anytime, anywhere with this edit of handbag- and beauty-pouch-friendly treasures:
The Perfecting Concentrate: the ultimate practical pressie! This ultra-concentrated formula with castor oil, vitamin E and pistachio extract intensely nourishes both nails and cuticles. Just a few swipes soften cuticles, smooth nail contours and boost the natural strength and radiance of your nails. And thanks to its clever pen-style applicator, it’s ready to go whenever you are.

Its lightweight, melting texture sinks in beautifully, hydrating skin with zero stickiness or greasy residue. A refreshingly unique gift idea—so much better than the usual perfume! Available in three gentle, natural fragrances: Fresh Rose, Orange Blossom and True Lavender.
