Experience Life In Technicolour With These Luxury Nail Polishes
It's time to give your nail game a serious upgrade
Prabal Gurung once said, “Nails are the period at the end of the sentence.” These simple yet purposeful additions either make or break a look — it’s why you’ll never see celebrities without their nails impeccably done for a red carpet event and why the demand for beauty’s top nail artists is at an all-time high.
If you’re not one for the damage that gel polishes can do, consider lacquer from luxury houses like Chanel, Dior, Gucci and Hermès to upgrade your nail game.
CHANEL LE VERNIS IN CAVALIER SEUL, $46. Chanel Beauty made a statement earlier this year by adding 17 new shades to its revolutionary Le Vernis 2023 collection — we’re talking about subtle tones like sage green to bold ones like hot Barbie pink. The brand’s goal? To present a diverse palette of hues that give women the freedom to experiment and express themselves in the most fun way possible.
DIOR VERNIS IN ROUGE, $44. Reinvented for Fall 2023 by Peter Philips, Creative and Image Director of Dior Makeup, the Maison’s Dior Vernis collection now boasts 21 highly-pigmented shades. Its new formula is more natural than ever, including pistachio oil and peony extract for a longer-lasting finish that’s less damaging to the nails. Who could ask for more?
HERMÈS LES MAINS NAIL ENAMEL IN ORANGE BOITE, $80. Hermès takes nail care to new heights with Les Mains Hermès. Available in 24 vibrant shades inspired by colours representative of the house and made up of 71 per cent natural origin ingredients, the product allows for a worry-free application process. The bottles act as a poetic ode to Hermès’ timeless craftsmanship too.
GUCCI VERNIS À ONGLES IN LUCY BABY BLUE, $55. We’re one for grand gestures and Gucci Beauty’s Vernis À Ongles definitely makes for some. Housed in a gorgeous vintage-inspired pear-shaped bottle with a ribbed pastel pink cap, this glossy nail polish will complete any look with signature shades best associated with the house like Lucy Baby Blue and Melinda Green.
