Nourishing Cuticle Oil

Cuticle oil deeply hydrates the cuticles and the nail surface. It helps prevent dryness of the small skin protecting the nail matrix and cracks in the nail plate, while promoting healthier nail growth. Used regularly, it strengthens the nail structure and makes it more resistant to daily damage. Oils rich in natural active ingredients like vitamin E or sweet almond oil are particularly effective for nourishing, protecting, and improving the appearance of nails.

For visible results, it is recommended to apply a cuticle oil once or twice a day, ideally in the morning and evening. If your cuticles are very dry or damaged, more frequent application can speed up repair and nail growth. Regular use improves nail flexibility, reduces breakage, and contributes to a cleaner, well-groomed appearance.

A good cuticle oil should contain plant oils known for their nourishing and repairing properties, such as sweet almond oil or jojoba oil. Vitamin E is also a key ingredient to strengthen nails and protect cuticles from aging and external aggressions. It is best to avoid formulas containing synthetic fragrances or harsh ingredients, which can irritate the delicate skin around the nail.

The Green Oil is applied to clean nails and cuticles, at any time of the day. Simply place a small drop at the base of each nail and then massage to help it absorb.

On bare nails, it can be used alone or after a serum to optimize hydration.

After a manicure, it is applied once the top coat is dry to nourish the cuticles and extend the shine of the application.

This treatment does not rinse off and works continuously to improve nail quality.

Our Complete Serum has a water-based formula that contains powerful hydrating agents, while our Green Oil is made from botanical oils that deeply nourish the nail. For maximum hydration, we recommend our Complete Serum. To deeply nourish, use our Green Oil.

Our nail care formulas are green and clean: they are up to 99% plant-based, i.e. made from biomass ingredients like aloe vera, lemon, ginseng, pomegranate and grape. However, women should avoid all types of nail polish when they are pregnant or breastfeeding. We recommend you speak to a healthcare professional if you are unsure.

Our nail care formulas meet European standards and do not contain any sensitising substances. They are also certified gluten-free and safe for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease, as are our Green Flash™, Green™ and Active™ ranges. Most customers who are allergic to regular nail care products are not allergic to the Manucurist nail care range. However, as allergic reactions are not specifically linked to chemical ingredients, they can sometimes occur with plant-based ingredients. We recommend you speak to a healthcare professional if you are unsure.
