What is feminine beauty for you?

“All women are beautiful. Beauty is a personal matter. The idea of ​​beauty canons should not tyrannize women by dictating what they should be. Beauty is polyform. I really like the expression "to feel beautiful":it means that beauty is first of all the perception that we have of ourselves. I believe that makeup is a good tool to feel beautiful.”

Which woman best embodies Manucurist?

”A free woman.”

Do you have a female model?

“I really like the woman who was Colette, the writer. His relationship to nature touches me a lot.
She opened a beauty institute in her time, and talks about beauty as a series of small daily gestures that make us stronger to face the world. I really like this idea of ​​getting ready to feel ready for your day.”

A life mojo?

"The woman is capable of all the exercises of the man except to pee standing against a wall." Colette

A final word for our NUOO readers?

“Trust yourself.”


You have read it, for Gaëlle feeling beautiful also means taking the time to prepare for her day as well as makeup. When we talk about make-up, we mainly think of foundation, eye palettes or lipstick... But you can also make up your nails, thanks to nail polish!

Choose natural varnishes

We all know that having beautiful nails with the health context due to Covid-19 is not an easy task. Washing your hands with soap or hydroalcoholic gel all day long does not help keep your nails painted for very long!
Besides this context, there are certainly people among you who have stopped applying varnish out of doubt about their composition, and you were right! A few years ago, the National Health Security Agency highlighted the dangers to which nail professionals are exposed. Know that Manucurist offers a wide range of varnishes and natural products to take care of your nails . All their nail polishes are composed of 84% ingredients of natural origin. Their formulas are also bio-sourced.

What is a bio-sourced ingredient?

A bio-sourced ingredient is an ingredient derived from biomass, i.e. it comes from living organic matter (animal, vegetable, fungal, etc.). At Manucurist, the products are vegan and cruelty free , this living organic matter is therefore vegetable.

A natural and varied range

From nude nail polish to ultramarine blue nail polish, Manucurist offers a wide range of colors that will satisfy all your desires. More than twenty colors are available in their “Green” range! For those who do not match their nail polish to their outfit (and therefore do not change their nail polish every two days) you can choose semi-permanent nail polishes . Long lasting guaranteed.
Whatever polish you fall for, it will be free of controversial material . Those that are found a little too often in retail varnishes... To name a few:toluene, camphor, xylene, formaldehyde, and benzophenones 1 and 2. Manucurist varnishes are also free of endocrine disruptors. Did you know that in some varnishes we could find bisphenol A? This same material that was banned in baby bottles in 2015! Thanks to Manucurist you will be Green to the core.

A natural range to take care of your nails

The brand has not only created natural nail polishes, it has also developed a range to take care of your nails. If you have nail tips that tend to split, we advise you to try their green nail and cuticle oil. Its formula rich in coconut and hazelnut oil is perfect for solidifying the nails, moisturizing them and helping them grow. It also works very well if you have damaged nails.
To change varnish, we advise you to use their solvent water. It is formulated without acetone , ingredient a bit too harsh! Instead, a very gentle formula has been designed to remove make-up from your nails. The sweet almond oil present in this solvent water will provide additional moisturizing care. Attention, for semi-permanent varnishes, you will have to choose the solvent water “Green flash”.

As you will have understood, due to its wide choice of colors and its natural skincare range, we can only advise you to fall for Manucurist!
