We love green nails
The delicacy of soft greens
If you're looking for a delicate, refined look with a touch of colour, soft green polishes are ideal. They enhance every skin tone while remaining subtle. Nail polish shades that evoke spring, blooming nature and sunshine.
Mint: this beautiful minty shade will make you feel like a water nymph emerging from a turquoise lagoon. It flatters fair skin and sun-kissed complexions alike. An essential shade for a fresh, on-trend manicure.
Pistachio: this pale green with subtle yellow undertones is good enough to eat. Its bright, natural look makes it perfect for a chic manicure or spring nail art. A seriously on-trend shade that looks delicious on short and long nails alike.
The bold character of powerful greens
For those who want to show off a bold pop of colour, nothing beats these deep greens with natural, sophisticated and confident tones. Each shade brings a touch of glamour, ideal for perfect nail art or an elegant summer manicure in the season’s key colours.
Poison: this shimmering fir green is captivating in its rich, intense colour. The depth of the shade gives it plenty of elegance, while its glittery finish adds a little touch of fun and modernity for a polished look.
Khaki: with its grey undertones, this khaki-green polish is ideal for an elegant, confident classic manicure. Pairing it with light shades such as pale pink or white creates a timeless yet unexpected look with a playful touch.
Jade: this timeless mineral green is just the thing for finding calm and serenity. Its subtle, deep shade lends nails natural elegance, making it an ideal base for a French manicure with a line of white polish or gold glitter.
The Brat green wave
With the return of Y2K style, the Brat nails trend is on every fashion radar. Inspired by American singer Charli XCX’s hit album Brat, this manicure goes against nude polishes and the clean girl trend. The key idea: wear a neon green shade identical to the album cover, simply. Here are the Brat polishes from the Manucurist palette:
Brazil: an ultra-bright pop green that celebrates sunny places, dancing, joy and good spirits. With this polish shade, Copacabana beach comes right to your fingertips, wrapped in vibrant green.
Artichaut: with its yellow undertones, this warm, appetising green is made for your inner veggie lover. Not too demure, not too eccentric, with just enough brightness to embrace the Brat nails look with elegance: perfect for a bold summer manicure.
The subtlety of hidden greens
For those who love green but not too much, those who don't know what to make of this colour that is sometimes lucky, sometimes synonymous with bad luck, opt for two-faced greens that blend in by mixing with other colours.
Sauge: this botanical grey-green is an elegant way to wear the green nail polish trend discreetly. Elegant and soothing, this subtle shade is perfect for anyone seeking an understated touch of nature.
Dark Clover: somewhere between teal blue and teal green, this deep, mysterious shade plays with the light to reveal its richness. A dark, intense polish with shifting reflections for an elegant, intriguing manicure.

Our tips for making your green manicure last
Fallen for a green Green™ nail polish or a green Green Flash™ gel polish? Here are a few tips to make your green manicure last longer and keep your hands looking flawless. The same routine works for every natural nail polish in the Green™ range, whatever shade you choose.
Prepare your nails like a pro
-
File the edge of the nail to achieve the desired shape and length.
-
Apply a little Effective Cuticle Softener to your cuticles and gently push them back with an orange wood stick or cuticle pusher.
-
Gently smooth the nail plate with a Prep Nail File.
-
Clean and degrease your nails with Green™ Degreaser.
Base Coat and Top Coat: the secret to long-lasting wear
-
To protect your nails and make the colour last, apply Base Coat Green™ or Vitamin-enriched Base Coat Green Flash™ before applying a coat of your chosen polish (from the same range as the Base Coat).
-
Protect your manicure and make its colour pop with a coat of Top Coat Sunshine or Green Flash™ (for a Green Flash™ manicure).
Hydrate and protect
-
Regularly massage your nails and cuticles with a few drops of Green Oil. Doing this daily, especially in winter, helps deeply hydrate your nails and improve your polish’s wear time.
-
If you need to nourish and strengthen your nails and cuticles, look no further than Perfecting Concentrate, a treatment highly concentrated in castor oil, vitamin E and pistachio extracts that you can take anywhere.
As you can see, green nails are an endless source of inspiration for manicures and nail art. This ultra-trendy colour lets you embrace a fresh, unconventional style in every season. So grab your brushes and nail polishes, and let your passion for green nails bloom. 💚💚💚
