The term 'nude' – frequently used nowadays – refers to any colour from milky white to beige or pale pink. Whether sheer or opaque, nude nail polish allows your natural nail colour to peek through to varying degrees. A sheer polish is easier to apply, while an opaque colour will last longer. It's up to you to choose the option that best suits your lifestyle!
There's nothing more chic than a well-done nude manicure for a modern, timeless look. Nude nails go well with any outfit and offer a well-groomed, effortless look. Like a lightly tinted lip balm or oil, nude polish is essential for an everyday 'no-makeup makeup' look. Read on for inspiration and tips on how to give yourself an elegant, minimalist nude manicure.

How to get a flawless soap nail finish Making sure your nails are clean, gently push back the cuticles using our Cuticle Remover and Cuticle Pusher duo, then gently buff the surface with our Nail Priming Emery Board before applying your polish for a flawless finish. Choose a light colour like pale pink, soft beige or milky white for an immaculate result.
