Purple Rain: Shades of Violet for Every Season
Summer: Embrace Radiance and Freshness
Summer’s purple shades are inspired by nature in full bloom. To enhance your sun-kissed glow, opt for luminous, vibrant, and airy purple nails that add a poetic and modern touch to your summer looks, whether you have short nails or long nails.
Lisa Lilas: A pastel lilac reminiscent of a lavender field under the Provençal sun. More original than pink, Lisa Lilas is perfect for a retro-chic, offbeat style inspired by the ’90s. Pair it with a Matte Top Coat for a fresh, modern look that suits short nails beautifully.
Armeria: This rosy mauve is the vibrant and playful touch of the season. Inspired by the ’70s, it exudes creativity and freedom. Whether paired with your favorite bikini or a breezy summer dress, it always stands out. A must-have for radiant nails!

Autumn: Welcome Warmth and Depth
As the leaves fall, why not add a comforting touch to your nails? Opt for warm tones that reflect the richness of autumn colors.
Violetta: A captivating violet where the essence of summer fruits meets the brilliance of a starlit night. This opulent polish blends rosy burgundy with deep plum, reminiscent of a juicy berry kissed by the light. More intriguing than classic red, it tells a tale of passion and mystery at your fingertips.
Victoria Plum: A soft, velvety hue, like a sun-ripened plum. This delicate blend of violet, pink, and brown carries a nearly “gourmet” feel, evoking twilight gardens and dreamy escapes. Elegant and versatile, it pairs beautifully with any autumn mood.

Winter: Ignite Elegance and Sophistication
During winter – and festive moments – instead of classic red nails, embrace the dark nails trend, a refined way to highlight your hands.

Mystic: A deep, magnetic violet-blue, like a starry winter sky. This rich and mesmerizing shade gives your nails an ethereal charm, perfect for a chic and mysterious manicure.
