We’re excited to welcome Gitti Nail Polish to the Nourished Collection. Thoughtfully crafted, vegan, and planet-friendly, Gitti offers vibrant colors that care for you and the Earth, because beauty should nourish.
About Gitti
Jennifer Baum-Minkus, the founder of Gitti nail polish started this Berlin-based brand because of the harsh fact that a lot of products contain ingredients that are considered controversial for their impact to the environment and our health. Two years of research later Gitti nail polish was launched with alternative responsible ingredients and it sold out in just two hours!
Plantbased
There are two formulas: Plantbased and Waterbased. Plantbased will give a longlasting manicure which will last up to 10 days in combination with the Gitti Smoothing nail primer and the High Gloss Top Coat.
Waterbased
The Waterbased nail polish has no strong smells and is perfect if you like to switch up your manicure more often. The Waterbased polish lasts up to 3 days.
How to use:
- Make sure your hands, nails and cuticles are left clean and free of dirt and sebum. This forms a great base for your manicure.
- Start with a thin layer of base coat to create a smooth surface and shield your nails from discolouration, especially with intense & dark shades.
- Apply your colour as thinly as possible. One layer often does the trick, but if you’d like a deeper, more opaque finish, add a second thin layer. Let the colour layer dry well.
- Finish with a thin layer of top coat to ensure that you can enjoy your vibrant nails as long as possible.
