Before diving into shade selection and application tips, it’s worth understanding why burgundy holds such a special place in the world of nail colour. With its mix of depth, modernity and timeless elegance, a burgundy gel nail polish is one of the most versatile and refined shades you can wear. It enhances the nails without overpowering them, plays beautifully with the light, and suits everything from evening looks to everyday outfits.
With Green Flash™, this iconic colour becomes even richer: more brightness, longer wear, greater comfort all while preserving that velvety, unmistakable charm.
Why choose burgundy Green Flash™ gel polish?
A deep red or burgundy gel nail polish captures a unique kind of elegance sitting between the intensity of classic red and the mystery of a deep plum. It works year-round and instantly enhances the hands, whether you prefer a true wine-red, a dark plum-burgundy, or a shade with subtle violet undertones.
Green Flash™ elevates this iconic colour with a clean, vegan, bio-sourced formula (up to 84%) designed for a flawless, long-lasting burgundy gel manicure without compromising nail health.
Wear lasts up to 12 days, cured under LED in under two minutes. Removal is just as easy: a quick one-minute, acetone-free soak-off that won’t weaken the nail. With Green Flash™, dark red gel nail polish gains intensity, shine and exceptional comfort. It’s the perfect match if you’re looking for a shade that’s elegant, durable and gentle on your nails.

How to choose your burgundy gel nail polish shade according to your skin tone
Burgundy is one of the most universally flattering colours, but certain shades enhance specific skin tones even more beautifully.
- Fair skin : Cooler tones with violet or wine undertones create an elegant contrast. Shades like Violeta or Hollyhock brighten the skin while adding sophisticated depth.
- Medium or tanned skin : Warm, ruby-leaning tones close to a rich dark red nail polish gel complement golden undertones. Dark Pansy is a reliable choice for a vibrant, full-bodied finish.
- Dark skin : Intense, saturated shades look stunning. Deep options like Aubergine or Prune create a plush, velvety effect.
Nail length also influences the final look: short nails pair beautifully with deep burgundy for a chic, modern finish. Long nails amplify the intensity and bring a bold, dramatic presence.
Manicure inspiration & colour pairings with burgundy gel polish
A burgundy gel manicure offers endless creative possibilities, whether you love refined, minimalist looks or more artistic designs.
For a sophisticated finish, metallics are a perfect match. A gold line over Dark Pansy creates a luxurious result, ideal for evening wear. Nude tones paired with Violeta soften the depth of burgundy and introduce a modern contrast. Deep blacks like Hollyhock add a glam-rock touch, while crisp white around an Aubergine accent nail creates a sharp, minimalist effect.

A deep red or matte burgundy nail colour works in every season warm and cozy in fall, elegant in winter, and intense and radiant in summer, especially against tanned skin.
