Manucurist Active Bright All in One Nail Perfector: Brightening Treatment Polish & Care - No Lamp - Vegan & Made in France - White Nail Polish - Nail Whitener & Brightener - Nail Strengthener

I love this! I used to get my nails done but the gel ruined my nails so I stopped. My nails looked so blah and regular nail polish chips so easy but this works great! It’s definitely like makeup for your nails and also nourishes them. It lasts me a week to week and 1/2. It came off easily with no damage to my nails and application is so easy and dries down fast. If you like a natural look you will love this.

This may be my favorite nail polish I’ve ever used. After dealing with a gel nail allergy that left my nails peeling, thin, and damaged, this product gave my nails life again. Despite my nails not being fully recovered, I’m so in awe with the glow. It adds a soft pink tint and an incredible shine that looks just like gel. Layered over 2 coats of Active Smooth (pictured in 3rd photo), it gives my nails a natural, glassy finish that feels elegant and effortless. It applies easily with a water-like feel, dries quickly, and leaves my nails feeling healthy and fresh. A good tip is to do proper cuticle and nail prep before applying.I will be ordering so many more products from manucurist!! It gave me hope that despite my newfound allergy, I can still have a beautiful finish without needing gel again.

Before using this product my nails were thin and splitting from getting builder gel at salons with no breaks. I was desperate for help my nails were so short. This product smells like regular polish. It’s a beautiful raspberry pink color. The color is deeper with the more coats you do. I usually do 2-3. Since using this product, my nails are retaining length, no splits. I’m so pleased. The application is easy and I think it’s worth the money for strong healthy nails.

I've been using this Active Glow Blueberry polish for a few weeks now and I'm genuinely impressed with how it's helped strengthen my nails. As someone who struggles with weak, brittle nails, I noticed a real difference in how sturdy they feel after regular use.The formula lives up to its claims - my nails do look healthier and have a lovely natural glow even without the polish on. I appreciate that it's vegan and made with plant-based ingredients, which was important to me when choosing a nail care product.The blueberry shade is beautiful - a perfect rosy pink that's flattering and professional-looking. Application is smooth and it wears reasonably well for a treatment polish.However, I have to dock a star for the price point. At this cost, it's definitely a splurge item rather than an everyday purchase. While the nail-strengthening benefits are real, there are more budget-friendly options that might deliver similar results.Bottom line: if you're looking for a treatment polish that actually works and don't mind paying premium prices for clean ingredients and French quality, this is worth trying. Just be prepared for sticker shock!Would I repurchase? Probably, but I'd wait for a sale.

Update 9/14/25: The company saw my review (which is still relevant so I will leave it) and fully refunded my money without me even having to ask. At the very least I can say if you are unsatisfied with the purchase the polish comes with great customer service. This changed my rating from 2 stars to 3. Lots of people seem to have luck with this polish so perhaps it is just incompatible with certain types of nails🤷🏻‍♀️Original review:I really wanted this to be a beneficial and healthy polish for my nails. It made my nails look so healthy and glowing! It’s super easy to apply, dries within minutes and because it’s not deeply colored you can’t notice if your polish is wearing off a bit. It creates a glow that mimics healthy nail color that I can’t achieve with any other product. This checked all possible boxes for me in terms of appearance directly after applying. I thought I had found my new daily polish and I was so excited. But then…..A week into using this my nails broke off. Multiple nails broke all in the same week. My thumb nail even peeled layers off down into the quick. My nails are now weak and cut as short as possible to try to hide the damage. I thought paying more I would get a product that actually helped my nails grow or at the very least didn’t damage them….but I might as well have bought a bottle of wet n’ wild and applied that because the outcome seems the same….my nails which were all evenly grown out and relatively healthy are now peeling and weak. My thumb nail is going to take at least 3 weeks to grow out to the point where the damage can be clipped off.Perhaps it was something else? Either way this polish did nothing to protect my nails if something else was the culprit. People seem to have good luck with this product and it does look amazing when first applied but from my point of view my nails were relatively healthy, I used this and within a week they were broken and peeling. I’m not going to risk damaging them further and may return the item if I’m able to do that. I just can’t risk it.I read another review where a person stated the same thing but the majority of the reviews were glowing and I thought maybe it was a fluke. But the same thing happened to me. Each person is different and we all have different nails but for me this seemed to do the exact opposite of what it advertises it does. It did not strengthen or protect them, if anything it made them weaker and more brittle and prone to breaking and peeling. I’m so bummed because the polish looks so amazing on nicely manicured nails. I’ve used similar products but nothing ever made my nails look as healthy as this polish did AT FIRST. My nails are ruined and they will grow back out but I’m extremely disappointed in the product. I gave two stars because the polish looked so amazing when first applied. I would otherwise give 1 star.

I love my nails painted, it makes me feel really put together but it is so frustrating. They take forever to dry, even when you think they are dry they chip or get messed up. Gel with a lamp peels in a couple days for me, I can’t seem to do it well on my own and I can’t afford the salon. I usually use the clear Sally Hanson nail strengthening polish to give my nails a manicured look, it dries super fast and lasts a couple weeks, but this? Wow! I’m impressed. I love all the options for a little tint of color and sparkle. I got Active Shine and it is so pretty! It’s not too much and it’s not too little. I think it looks better in person. I only used two coats and Its really nice. The application was great and the brush was nice, too. It is definitely a little stronger in smell than others I’ve smelled and pricey in my opinion, but for it being a nail treatment/polish combo so far I’m very pleased with it. Eventually I’ll try the other tints!
