FAQs

Les questions les plus fréquemment posées par nos utilisatrices et notre communauté !

Can I use the polish in the Active™ range with Green™ or Green Flash™?

Our Active™ range is not compatible with Green Flash™! The products in our Active™ range should be used on their own and air-dryin just a few seconds, so don't require a lamp!

To enjoy the beneficial effects of our Active™ range, the product needs to be in direct contact with the nail. So there's no need to use it as a top coat. If you want to use a base coat that cares for your nails under your Green™ polish, use one of our treatment base coats.

Do I need a lamp to use the polish in the Active™ range?

The polish in the Active™ range air-dries without the use of a Green Flash™ lamp.

Can I use the polish in the Active™ range with a treatment base coat?

The products in the Active™ range should be applied to bare nails. You don't need to use a base coat, as each product in the range is also a treatment, so has to be in contact with your nails. You don't need a top coat either, as it already has a high-shine finish!

Can I layer Active™ products for an even greater "wow" effect, like makeup?

Yes! The Active™ range is endlessly buildable, so you can layer it to vary the effect and intensity.

How do I remove the polish in the Active™ range?

You can remove Active™ products in the same way as our polish - with a gentle nail polish remover, with our Nail Polish Remover or with Green Flash™ Nail Polish Remover.

Can pregnant and/or breastfeeding women use Active™ products?

Our Active™ formulas are green and clean: they are up to 85.5% plant-based, i.e. made from biomass ingredients like beetroot, castor oil, raspberry, blueberry and lemon. 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.

Can using the Active™ range cause allergies?

Our Active™ 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 nail care ranges. Most customers who are allergic to regular nail polish are not allergic to the Active™ 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.

For more information, see our blog on allergies.

Reviews

Truly my nails have never

"Truly my nails have never been stronger. Mine used to peel and break all the time with other nail polishes, but I thought I just had weak nails and stopped using polish, which made my nails healthier. But I started this and they’ve stayed so healthy and the polish lasts so long without chipping! The active smooth 00 just adds a little color and shine and looks so clean."

— Carly F. (5/5)

Active Smooth 00 habe ich

"Active Smooth 00 habe ich schon mehrfach bestellt und bin sehr zufrieden damit. Es schützt meine weichen, dünnen und gerillten Nägel sehr gut und vermeidet dass sie austrocknen und splittern. Es gleicht die Rillen zusätzlich ein wenig aus und lässt den Nagel gepflegter erscheinen. Für einen besonderen Glanz nutze ich des öfteren zusätzlich Active Glow."

— Gabriele F. (5/5)

Works for a gardener

"I garden every day and my nails just never look clean no matter how much I scrub them. *enter active smooth* wow. It’s wild how polished my filthy finger nails look with this product. Gave 4 out of 5 stars because sometimes it doesn’t adhere to my nail well and I have to remove and reapply within 36 hours. I thiiiiiink that might be because I applied the polish too soon after using the nail polish removing oil though!"

— Liz (4/5)

"Never recieved. Tried multiple times to reiterate that my package was not moving. Eventually had to dispute the charge with my credit card company. It wasnt until then they wanted to replace it under the condition that I cancel the dispute. Worst customer service I have ever recieved. Which is suprising for the quality of product. Super disappointed all around, makes me think twice before ordering."

— Meghan (1/5)

As minhas unhas estão muito

"As minhas unhas estão muito resistentes e bonitas! Sinto-as com saúde e fortes. Os vernizes normais fazem-me doer as unhas, quebram facilmente e não duram muitos dias. Com qualquer um deles, dura mais de 7 dias!"

— Daniela R. (5/5)

I love the sheer, buildable

"I love the sheer, buildable finish and I love how it is an all in one. I don’t have to use a base or a top coat and it lasts for quite a while! I can’t stop looking at my fingernails!"

— Shiloh B. (5/5)

Idéal pour mes ongles striés.

"Idéal pour mes ongles striés. La couleur est superbe, naturelle. Cela donne un fini soigné et le plus : il sèche en quelques minutes. Je l’applique même avant de me coucher !"

— Pascale B. (5/5)

Super Produkt für die Maniküre!

"Super Produkt für die Maniküre! Ich bin grundsätzlich sehr zufrieden damit. Das einzige Problem ist, dass die Flüssigkeit in den Fläschchen sehr schnell austrocknet. Dadurch muss ich jedes Mal eine noch fast volle Flasche wegwerfen. Es wäre schön, wenn es dafür eine Lösung gäbe."

— Nino M. (4/5)

Active Smooth gives my nails

"Active Smooth gives my nails the ultimate, natural, clean, fresh finish I love. The look is PERFECTION! This polish delivers a thicker, translucent result which refuses to chip or flake - and I work A LOT with my hands and fingers. I can't believe how LONG this polish lasts!!! I totally recommend."

— Suzzette V. (5/5)

Amazing my nails have never

"Amazing my nails have never looked better"
