Why choose pearl nail polish
Elegant versatility for any occasion
Pearl nail polish strikes the perfect balance between subtle and eye‑catching. The soft shimmer enhances everyday looks while remaining refined enough for weddings, events, and formal settings. It’s a timeless finish that transitions seamlessly from day to night.
Beautiful layering possibilities
Pearl nail paint works beautifully on its own or layered over crème nail polish. Apply over your favourite solid shades to instantly add lustrous shimmer, dimension, and a custom pearlescent effect.
Flattering across all skin tones
From fair to deep complexions, pearl nail varnish complements every skin tone. The reflective finish enhances natural undertones, creating a universally flattering manicure.
Finding your perfect pearl shade
Choosing the best pearl nail colour comes down to your personal style, skin tone, and the mood you want to create. Each pearl shade offers its own unique expression of shimmer and sophistication.

Application tips for pearl nail polish
Achieving the perfect pearl manicure is easy with the right technique.
Start with clean, dry nails and apply a base coat to protect your nail bed and extend wear. Pearl nail polish typically requires two coats for full coverage, though opacity varies by shade. Some lighter pearl polishes remain slightly translucent, allowing your natural nail to show through for an ethereal effect.
Apply thin, even coats rather than thick layers to prevent streaking and ensure smooth coverage. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next. Finish with a top coat to seal in the pearlescent shimmer and add glossy shine. For enhanced longevity, wrap the polish around your nail tips during application.
Layering pearl nail polish
For custom colour effects, apply two coats of crème nail polish as a base, then add one or two coats of pearl polish on top. This technique adds luminous depth and transforms any shade in your collection.
