3 min to read

Beach, pool, hiking, biking, beach volleyball competitions...the vacations will put your nails to the test! In addition to your favorite colors and your sunscreen, here are a few essentials to include in your manicure survival kit, to maintain and preserve the health of your nails this summer!

A "magic tool" to shorten and repair small snags!

We take it everywhere, it is the essential accessory to repair gently the small snags and to shorten easily your nails which grow more quickly under the sun: it is of course the file ! Choose one for natural nails, with a medium rough grain 180 for hands (100 for toes) and make sure you always file in the same direction to respect the keratin layers of the nail and avoid splitting.

2 essentials for effective moisturizing

Never forget that our nails, like our skin, need to be nourished and moisturized! Therefore, we slip in a green oil in our luggage to deeply moisturize our nails and cuticles between two manicures. This ultra-rich treatment of 6 plant oils with multiple active ingredients will be our best ally this summer to limit the dryness that makes nails brittle and to promote a beautiful growth.

And to regenerate our skin and cuticles when we return from the beach, we opt for the multi-purpose pink balm in an all-purpose format! Ultra-nourishing and 100% natural, it repairs and soothes weakened areas of the hands, face and body.

The bases of a high-level protection

Contrary to what you might think, nails are much more permeable to water than skin! When they are immersed for too long, water seeps into the keratin layers and makes them soft.

So whether you're into color or natural nails, it's best not to keep your nails bare. Always apply a Baseyour favorite color of polish Green or Green Flash and remember to edge your nails to maintain their natural moisture and protect them from water that can weaken them.


And as the polish nails also hold up much better on healthy nails, you can also take advantage of the summer to give them a mini repair cure while protecting them. Choose the Base treatment enriched with keratin, vitamins, minerals and adapted to your nail type. Base hardening for nails that are too soft, Base smoothing for ridged nails, Base SOS for very damaged nails... Manucurist has the solution to all small imperfections !

A beautiful case to carry everything

If you want to travel with all your manicure and skincare essentials for the summer, it's all about the color.
Match your case to your mood. Whichever one you choose, with its wide opening, large capacity and flexible format, it will allow you to take everything with you and will slip into any suitcase in a flash.

One last tip for a manicure travelshockproof and long-lasting

For fashionistas who like to change colors and long-lasting manicures, we recommend using Green Flashthe first polish LED as fast to flash as to remove. Easy to apply as a polishlong lasts like a semi, dries immediately and has a "gel effect" shine. Green Flash also has the advantage of not damaging your nails, since it is removes in 1 minute with a soft solvent without acetone. Guaranteed long-lasting protection! And with its lamp slim travel equipped with a USB port you can flash your colors all around the world!

Finally, if you notice that after a while your manicure loses a bit of shine, apply a coat of Topcoat Sunshine on your nails, its formula reacts to the sun's UV rays for an ultra fast drying that will revive the color of your nails and reinforce their protection.

And there you have it... all you have to do is enjoy your vacation!
