FAQs

Our Frequently Asked Questions from our customers and community!

Do you already have Green™ products? Are they compatible with the new formula?

Absolutely! All Green™ products purchased in 2024 are compatible with the new formula. You can complete your routine to get the full system.


For products purchased before 2024, durability cannot be guaranteed as all Green™ products were reformulated in 2024.

Opt for The Essentials Green™ System, which includes the degreaser, drying drops, base coat, and top coat sunshine!

Is Green™ compatible with another brand?

Yes, Green™ products are compatible with other brands of classic nail polish. However, without using the complete system, the 7-day wear cannot be guaranteed.

How should you properly store your Green™ polish to ensure it lasts long?

You should keep the product as tightly closed as possible and close it immediately after use!

PRO TIP: try storing in the the refrigerator!


Lowering the temperature helps prevent some ingredients in the polish from evaporating which can keep formulas from becoming thick and degradation over time.

Are your products natural?

Our ranges are green and clean, made of up to 83% plant-based ingredients, without endocrine disruptors, monomers, or hydroquinone.


The Green™ range is also vegan, certified by the Vegan Society!
We are constantly seeking alternatives to this product because animal welfare is particularly important to us!

Does Sunshine Top Coat need to be dried under the lamp?

There's no need to cure your Sunshine Top Coat! Its unique formula reacts to natural UV light and air-dries in a flash.

What is the difference between Sunshine Top Coat and a "classic" Top Coat?

Sunshine Top Coat is formulated with natural UV-sensitive photoinitiators that allow it to dry much faster than a classic Top Coat. It also gives your nails a gel-effect mirror shine and boosts the staying power of your Green™ polish.

How long does the high-shine finish last when I use Sunshine Top Coat?

Sunshine Top Coat retains its high shine for up to a week.

Can I add a layer of Sunshine Top Coat a few days after my Green™ manicure? Can I use it with Green Flash™ polish?

Yes, we even recommend you use it to keep your Green™ manicure looking good! It will help prolong its high-shine finish and boost its staying power. To revive the shine of your Green Flash™ manicure, use our Color Refresher.

Reviews

Il migliore

"L’ho comprato ma ero un po scettica. Ma signore mie !! Che formulazione! È autolivellante e si riesce benissimo a sigillare la punta senza che il prodotto rimanga più spesso in quel punto. La luminosità del quarto giorno è quasi come il primo. La forma del pennello è sensazionale. Ho provato anche il famosissimo seche vite ma molto più pastoso e denso e con un pennello troppo minuscolo! Invece questo è un piacere applicarlo, di solito era la parte più noiosa mettere il top coat. Adesso è il mio momento preferito !!! In foto manicure appena fatta ♥️ con Lila Lilas"

I absolutely love the Manucurist

"I absolutely love the Manucurist Sunshine Top Coat. It gives my manicure an incredible gel-like shine without needing a UV lamp, and it dries surprisingly fast. My nails stay glossy and chip-free for about a week, even with everyday activities. The formula applies smoothly, doesn't streak, and makes any nail polish look more professional. If you're looking for a high-quality top coat that adds durability and a beautiful glossy finish, this one is definitely worth it. Highly recommended!"

"Reçu en dédommagement suite à un problème avec des produits. Donc un grand merci. Top coat effet gel, qui recouvre dans épaissir et qui laisse un fini laqué et brillant vraiment sympa. Ravie de ce produit. Je testerai celui qui est pailleté or ou argent à l'occasion."

Works great and dries fast

"Works great and dries fast with the drying drops. I don't think it makes the manicure last longer than other top coats I have tried, but it works very well and looks shiny. Just a note - when I use the Green nail polishes in combination with the Top Coat, I find them really difficult to take off. The Manucurist nail polish remover does nothing, literally, and I often have to reach for an acetone based nail polish remover. Maybe it's just my nail type, but I'm sharing this information in case this information helps you. If you have similar issues and don't want to use acetone, then I highly recommend the Active range - it pretty much obviates the need for a top coat and looks really shiny on its own."
