FAQs

Our Frequently Asked Questions from our customers and community!

What is the best way to store my Green™ polish so it lasts longer?

You should try to open it as little as possible and close it as quickly as possible!

A little tip to beat the heat: the fridge is the best place to store it! Reducing the temperature helps prevent the polish from evaporating and slows down the rate at which the ingredients deteriorate.

What do your products contain?

You will find the full list of ingredients on the “Ingredients” tab of the product description page.

Are your products natural?

Our product ranges are green and clean with up to 84% plant-based ingredients (of natural origin). They are also free of endocrine disruptors, monomers and hydroquinone.

You can also rest assured that the Green™ range is vegan, certified by the Vegan Society.

We are always on the lookout for an alternative to this product, as animal welfare is particularly important to us!

Is the Green™ range compatible with the Green Flash™ range? And with products from other brands?

Unfortunately not, each formula is unique and made from different ingredients. Our Green Flash™ products should only be used with products from the same range to ensure the best results.

How old do you have to be to use Green™ classic nail polish?

Our Green™ polish is recommended for ages 12+.

How long does Green™ polish take to dry?

It all depends on the thickness of your coats, but if you use our Quick-Dry Drops, you can halve the drying time of your Green™ polish (by 51% to be precise, according to recent studies)!

What steps do I need to follow for a Green™ System manicure?

The nail prep step is a very important way to make sure your polish lasts:

1) File your nails into your preferred shape using our emery board. Use the fine grain (Manucurist logo) for your fingernails and the coarser grain for your toenails.
2) Push back your cuticles. Apply our Cuticle Remover to the nail contour. Leave to work for 2 minutes, then push back the cuticles with a cuticle pusher.
3) File the surface of your nails using our buffer. This is designed to smooth, buff and open up the nail plate to help the polish adhere better.
4) Remove all traces of oil and/or impurities using our Nail Oil Remover to help the polish adhere better and last longer.

Then apply your Green™ polish by following the steps below. Carry out each step on all 10 fingers before moving on to the next step:

1) Apply a thin layer of Base Coat immediately after the Nail Oil Remover.
2) Apply 2 thin coats of colour once the Base Coat is dry. Wait a little while between each coat for it to dry slightly.
3) Apply 1 thin layer of Top Coat.
4) Apply 1 Quick-Dry Drop to the middle of each nail after applying the Top Coat.
Apply the polish in thin coats and wait 1-2 minutes between each coat!

How can I give my Green™ manicure a shine boost after a few days?

If you are wearing Green™ polish, you can reapply a layer of our Sunshine Top Coat to refresh its shine after a few days.

Can I use a Green™ treatment base coat under my Green™ polish instead of the regular Green base coat?

Yes, you can use any of our treatment base coats as part of your Green™ manicure, e.g. S.O.S. Base Coat, Force Base Coat or 5.5 Base Coat. These base coats are designed to strengthen your nails, while helping your Green™ polish to adhere properly.

How do I apply my nail polish?

For a clean, luminous and even finish, it all comes down to proper nail prep and thin layers.

Prep your nails: file to your desired shape, gently push back cuticles, then cleanse the nail surface.

Apply a thin layer of Green™ Base Coat to protect the nail and improve wear.

Apply your shade in 1 to 2 thin coats (2 thin coats give a more even result), allowing each layer to air dry properly.

Finish with a Top Coat to seal in colour and add shine, then apply a cuticle oil.

Tip: remove any excess immediately for clean, precise edges.

How long does my nail polish last and how can I improve its wear?

Under normal conditions, a classic nail polish can last up to 7 days with a clean, glossy finish, depending on nail prep and your daily routine (water exposure, cleaning, manual activities…).

If your polish chips, it’s usually due to one of the following:

-insufficient nail prep or cleansing
-layers applied too thick or not fully dry
-no base or top coat
-frequent exposure to water or household products

Best practices to extend wear:

-properly prep and cleanse the nail before application
-apply a base coat
-use thin, even layers
-allow each coat to fully dry
-seal with a top coat

Tip: wearing gloves for household tasks helps preserve shine and colour for longer.

How do I remove my nail polish without damaging my nails?

For gentle removal your nail polish, use a mild nail polish remover.

Soak a cotton pad, place it on the nail for a few seconds, then wipe to dissolve the colour without excessive rubbing.

If needed, repeat the process rather than scraping the nail surface.

After removal, hydrate your nails and cuticles with an oil or nourishing treatment.

Tip: for more pigmented shades, use a clean cotton pad to avoid redepositing colour on the nail.

Are Manucurist nail polishes and gel polishes natural, plant-based, and vegan?

Our natural nail polishes and gel polishes are vegan and formulated with the highest possible percentage of bio-based ingredients depending on the range.

Reviews

When you think glitter polish,

"When you think glitter polish, this is the stuff. One coat was beautiful. Two coats was gorgeous. I am in LOVE with this polish. I am always disappointed with glitter polish, but this one is legit."

— Stephanie D. (5/5)

J'adore

"Ce vernis contient des paillettes vraiment holographiques. Ca scintille de toutes les couleurs à la lumière, ce n'est pas juste un effet brillant. Je préfère le superposer. Je l'avais posé sur l'active Aqua Glaze mais j'ai préféré rajouter une touche colorée en le recouvrant du Transparent Active Corail. Et là, Wouahou. . encore plus beau. . Par ailleurs une couche peut suffire car le pinceau dépose beaucoup de paillettes à la fois, c'est super."

— Perla (5/5)

Rainbow Sparkles in Every Ray of Light

"Mermaid is hands down my favourite Manucurist shade so far—and I've tried quite a lot of their colours. The glitter is absolutely unreal. If you're expecting a typical glitter polish with the usual white shimmer, think again. Mermaid is on a completely different level. The sparkles reflect every color imaginable, not just white—blues, pinks, greens, golds—and they're incredibly vibrant and intense. The best part? In direct sunlight, it's basically a disco on your nails. ✨ Every movement catches the light differently, so the colour and sparkle seem to change constantly. I genuinely catch myself staring at my nails way more often when I'm wearing this shade. As for longevity, it lasted 9 days on me, which I'm very happy with. If I had to recommend just one glitter shade from Manucurist, Mermaid would be the one."
