Manucurist Green - Tuileries

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.

Are your products natural?

Manucurist 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.

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. The 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?

The Green™ polish is recommended for ages 12+.

How long does Green™ polish take to dry?

It all depends on the thickness of the coats, but if you use the Quick-Dry Drops, you can halve the drying time.

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 the Sunshine Top Coat to refresh its shine after a few days.

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. 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

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

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

For gentle removal, use a mild nail polish remover.

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

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

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 the nail file. 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 the 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 the 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!
