Reviews

I absolutely love my Manicurist

"I absolutely love my Manicurist Ultimate Routine for damaged nails! And WHAT A DIFFERENCE this routine has made for my nails! They look so much better and healthier. I’ve even combined the “Routine” with my new Cranberry nail polish, and it looks so pretty, yet simple, on my nails! The natural look is so welcoming and refreshing on my nails! I’m a new user for LIFE now. Thank you so much, Manicurist!"

J'ai essayé la routine pendant

"J'ai essayé la routine pendant 1 mois car j'avais des ongles cassants, mais ça n'a pas changé mes ongles. Étant à ce moment là en post partum et allaitant, je pense qu'il s'agit plutôt d'un taux de fer bas, et donc il me faut une cure de vitamines. J'adore le masque SOS de nuit, l'huile verte et le keratine booster. Je n'utilise pas la base SOS. Je conseille cet achat : permet de soigner ses ongles entre deux manucures."

— Cécile G. (5/5)

"I have worn acrylic nails for over 20 years straight . they are so damaged and weak. I was scared I would be stuck with ugly nails until they grew out. I love the active line blur that gives that soap nail look.. even the damaged kit makes them look and feel stronger so I can still do my job without bending my nails back every minute.. I use the active line to make them look pretty for when I need and then use damaged kit to get them healthy. overall they dry fast, they self level amazing. the smell is not obnoxious, this is exactly what I was looking for! I'm so excited to break away from my unhealthy nail habit ."

Très bons produits, cependant pour

"Très bons produits, cependant pour les ongles qui se dédoublent je n'ai pas constaté de grosse amélioration. C'est dommage pour le soin kératine de ne pas pouvoir mettre un peu de base par dessus, car cela protège les ongles des agressions extérieures."

I've never been able to

"I've never been able to grow and to maintain longer stronger nails before. Mine are naturally brittle and thin. But if you follow their regimen, as I did, you'll also get strong nails. I feel great wearing rings now."

This treatment revived my brittle

"This treatment revived my brittle nails! I am even proud to wear them bare with no nail polish now! I used to hide behind nail polish. After two weeks, they look healthy and strong!"

"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."

SUPER HEATHLY NAILS I have

"SUPER HEATHLY NAILS I have to say it took just a bit longer to see great results (but I stuck with it and applied the products as recommended for an additional 2 weeks. The before pic was taken 7/1 and the after pics were taken 7/30. They are moisturized from the products and no longer dried out and cracking. Even the skin around the nails looks healthier. I purchased the hydrating serum too, which is a wonderful treat! I am a fan."
