What Manucurist is known for

Paris nail-care brand behind Green Flash, a semi-permanent LED gel polish formulated up to 84% from bio-sourced ingredients; unlike a salon gel manicure it's designed to be removed at home without acetone or filing.

Manucurist is a Paris nail-care brand built around Green Flash, its semi-permanent LED gel polish. The formula is described by the company as up to 84% bio-sourced and vegan, in a 12-free category that excludes many solvents and plasticizers used in conventional gel polish. The main difference from a standard salon gel manicure is removal: Green Flash is designed to come off at home by peeling or gentle rubbing, without soaking nails in acetone or filing down the gel layer first — a process that can thin natural nails over repeated salon visits. Application still requires curing under an LED lamp, and the brand pairs the polish with a patented base coat intended to strengthen nails underneath. Manucurist manufactures in France and sells through both a Paris boutique and shop-in-shop counters, including inside department stores such as Printemps, alongside its own e-commerce site.
