The nail polish colours to wear on your toes this autumn

Autumn is settling in, bringing leaves turning russet, blankets made for cocooning and evenings spent pampering your toenails! For a seasonal pedicure, it’s time to bring out your most beautiful nail polish colours to warm up your toes. Intense burgundies, comforting browns or understated greens, there’s plenty to choose from. Find inspiration in our selection of good-mood, ultra-trendy shades.

The best pedicure colours for autumn 2026

As the days grow shorter and trees take on shimmering shades, it's time to match your nail polish right down to your toes! This season, pedicures follow the same trend as your fall manicure: cozy, milky, or subtly pearlescent shades evocative of nature here and beyond, and seasonal vibes in both city and countryside. The key theme is depth: bright colors make way for more nuanced tones, ensuring back-to-routine looks full of character and elegance. Rich browns, earthy reds and oranges, burgundy, and matcha… your toes will be warmly dressed in color over the coming months thanks to the palette of Green™ polishes and Green Flash™ gel polishes.

Rich browns

In autumn, warm colours inspired by plants or minerals are ideal for warming up the mood. Sandstone reimagines autumn browns with a more shimmering twist. This pearlescent light brown from the Grand Canyon collection evokes sand dunes lit by the last rays of sunshine. Perfect for extending summer!

A change of mood: with its chocolate shade lifted by a touch of purple, Clove is the ideal shade for your first evenings by the fire. Wear it with an off-white cashmere jumper as cosy as a blanket.

Deep reds

Another new addition to the Grand Canyon collection, Grenat is a brownish red with mahogany reflections that evokes the richness of precious stones and the depth of a fine vintage. A nail polish with a bold character, less classic than a bright red yet just as elegant. Enjoy without moderation!

Or perhaps Bohème will become your new autumn must-have. We never tire of this red nail polish with brown undertones and such a Parisian feel, as timeless as it is modern, that makes you want to stroll along the banks of the Seine.

Plums and powdery pinks

If you want to embrace autumn to the fullest, Prune is sure to win you over. Deep and mysterious, this burgundy nail polish dresses your toenails with class and boldness, in the velvet nails trend. THE must-have colour of this Autumn-Winter 2026-27 season!

For a more delicate pedicure, choose Rosewood, a dusty rose nail polish that's chic in every situation. A soft shade to match a cosy mood, flattering fair skin as much as deeper skin tones. A colour that makes you want to curl up on the sofa with a cup of tea and a good book.

Desert-inspired oranges

The new nude for autumn is Milky Peach ! This orange-beige shade with a milky texture, creamy and enveloping, is inspired by the ochre cliffs of American canyons. It instantly brightens feet across all skin tones and works just as well with casual looks as dressed-up silhouettes.

For more intensity, go for Terracotta without hesitation. We love this burnt orange-red that recalls the light of the golden hour. Warm and sun-kissed, it makes your feet glow with vibrant energy.

Refined greens

Missing matcha lattes during summer? Reconnect with this drink’s botanical freshness and creamy softness with Milky Matcha, a milky green nail polish released as a limited edition for Manucurist’s 10th anniversary. A delicate, modern shade that brings an unexpected burst of energy to your toes.

If you prefer to dress your feet in more understated, pastoral shades, fall for Khaki nail polish. With its grey undertones, this green nail polish is warmer than it looks. Once you try it, you won’t be able to live without it.

Blue-greys

For a subtle, minimalist pedicure, we recommend Mist Grey, a blue nail polish with grey undertones that echoes the misty mood of early autumn mornings. Ideal for waking up gently.

If you’re looking for something deeper and more magnetic, Poppy Seed nail polish is waiting for you. This highly opaque stormy blue-grey covers your toenails with elegance and defines your back-to-school looks.

Nudes and taupes

Look no further for the perfect nude nail polish, it’s here! Beige is a skin-tone nail polish with crystal-clear sheerness, ideal for everyday wear. A safe bet for a "clean girl" look that’s chic in every situation.

Clay may also win you over. Its taupe tone, a refined blend of chestnut and grey, enhances every skin tone and pairs beautifully with your autumn outfits. A shade that quietly makes its mark and creates a pedicure that is both understated and ultra-desirable.

Caring for your feet from back-to-school season right through to winter

After summer, our feet have often been through a thousand adventures in the sun, sand and sea… We’re left with dry, weakened nails and a summer pedicure that is now just a memory. It’s time to switch to back to work mode, including for your toenails. Here are our recommendations to boost your toenails:

Getting beautiful toenails the natural way

What if you gave your toenails a new lease of life with a resurfacing routine inspired by the Japanese manicure ? That’s exactly what Glossy Booster Duo offers: its formula with glycolic acid, citric acid and plant-based glycerine gently exfoliates, hydrates and smooths your nails for a long-lasting glossy effect. Start by applying the glycolic peel to bare nails, then gently massage until fully absorbed. Next, polish with the pale pink side of the buffer to smooth the surface and erase small imperfections. Finally, add the glossy touch: use the bright pink side to buff the nail and seal the scales for radiant shine.

Having the right pedicure accessories

Good news! Manucurist offers a Glass Foot File. With its fine 180 grit, it gently exfoliates the heel, leaving skin smooth from the very first use. Easy to clean and endlessly reusable, 100% recyclable and easy to hold, it will be your feet’s ally for years to come.

Files and buffers remain essential tools for everyday toenail care. Preferably use the coarse grit (side without logo) to even out the edge of your toenails and smooth their surface before applying nail polish.

Last but not least: don't forget to moisturise

Finally, don’t forget hydration: it’s the key to keeping soft feet and glowing nails. Huile Verte intensely nourishes them thanks to its formula combining six botanical oils. And, for a spa-worthy finish, Concentré Perfecteur lets you soothe and rehydrate cuticles and nails thanks to its formula based on castor oil, vitamin E, and mastic gum extracts.

This autumn, forget pastel colours and vitamin-packed pop colours: your pedicure becomes a reflection of the latest trends. Brown, burgundy, green or terracotta nail polishes… so many autumn colours making their way to your toes. With the right care routine, your feet will stay beautiful, strong and irresistibly elegant. It’s your turn to create your palette!
