Our tips for a top-notch manicure

It goes (almost) without saying, a successful manicure always starts with careful preparation. Here are some key steps to achieve flawless nails and longer tenue.

Prepare your nails before applying color

Before applying your polish, make sure to clean and file your nails. Remove any residue from previous polish with a gentle remover and lightly buff their surface with a preparatory file for better color adhesion.

Use the Mani Helper and corrector pen for a “like a pro” application

Our latest accessory? The Mani Helper applicator that makes polish application easier. It fits on the cap of all our bottles and provides a better grip for a neat and precise application. We love it! And in case of a small spill, the corrector pen is your ally for a flawless finish worthy of a nail salon.

With the Mani Helper and corrector pen combo, manicure becomes child's play!

Moisturize your nails for better tenue

Finally, don’t forget hydration, essential for healthy nails. Before and after applying polish, apply a few drops of Huile Verte, our ultra-nourishing oil for nails and cuticles. The Concentré Perfecteur also deeply nourishes and strengthens them.
