In recent years - helped by the Covid crisis and lockdowns - fans of colors and perfect nails have rediscovered the pleasure of “at-home” manicures thanks to the sale of complete ready-to-use kits containing all the essentials, from preparation to the application of color or semi-permanent polish.
For enthusiasts as well as beginners, the advantages are numerous: a smaller budget to spend and above all, time saved! But the DIY manicure boom still makes some fans of semi or nail art doubt the quality of the finish or the mastery of technical skills.
An expert in color and nail care, Manucurist is also a brand born in the professional world. So we can definitely talk to you about the finish and quality! 💅🏼 Ahead of the curve since 2019, with the launch of the Green Flash™ innovation - the 1st Led Polish as easy to flash as to removal - the brand has always aimed to offer salon quality at home with a range of clean, green, and easy-to-use products.
For those who still have doubts or hesitate to start, here is a quick overview of the advantages of at-home manicure by Manucurist and our tips to fully enjoy its potential and fun side!
Make an appointment … with yourself!
One of the main advantages of at-home manicure is that you can choose your own pace. Night owl? Early riser? Lunch break heroine? No problem!
No constraints, you won’t need to fit into the availability and opening hours of a salon or institute. You can also choose the place that suits you and create your own atmosphere for your manicure ritual. Prefer a cozy and nail care vibe? Light your favorite candle, choose your music, and take the time to enjoy it. Prefer a Nail art Party with friends? Turn up the volume, unleash your creativity, and enjoy the party!
Save money …
Some salon services require a budget that is not necessarily accessible to all. Not to mention the need to come back for removal, which further increases costs if you chose a semi application.
In the current context, where everyone is looking to optimize their budget, investing in an at-home manicure kit can be super cost-effective without losing quality - provided you choose the right products.
With the Manucurist semi-permanent polish kits you are sure not to go wrong. They contain all the essentials for your manicure routine - lamp included - and even the most expensive among them will be a worthwhile investment, amortized in 2 or 3 uses with the promise of an infinite number of custom manicures!
Save time and remove your polish yourself!
Saving money is good, saving time is even better. With Manucurist kits you organize your schedule as you want, but you can especially remove your polish at home without damaging your nails, even if you opt for long-lasting polish. Thanks to the Green Flash™ innovation - the Clean alternative to semi-permanent - no more salon appointments for acetone removal and excessive nail filing. The removal is gentle, in 1 minute flat, with a gentle remover. You can change color in the blink of an eye without damaging your nails!
Keep control
And so… you keep control. Not happy with the result? No need to wait for a removal appointment at the salon. You can now easily change color without guilt.
