NAILBERRY’s nail polishes let your nails breathe freely and stay healthy.
By: Nadine Rürup
Anyone who’s worn polish for long enough knows the dilemma — regular varnish, and shellac and gel in particular, can leave nails dry, brittle, thin, rough, and discolored with prolonged use. But the worse the nails get and the more they need a break, the harder it is to give up polish and go bare. NAILBERRY resolves that contradiction with polishes that give nails, quite literally, room to breathe — while still letting you paint them healthy and beautiful.
The idea came to British founder Sonia Hully in 2012, in her luxury nail spa in Chelsea, London, where client after client complained of exactly this problem. In search of a solution, Sonia developed what became the multi-award-winning L’Oxygéné technology, which lets the nail breathe beneath the polish by allowing air and water to pass through. NAILBERRY’s polishes are also cruelty-free, vegan, and 12-free — meaning they skip a full twelve potentially harmful ingredients commonly found in conventional nail polish, among them phthalates, toluene, formaldehyde, and parabens.
The brand invests as much in thoughtful, eco-conscious packaging as it does in premium ingredients, staying true to the needs of both nails and nature. At a time when beauty and health are more closely entwined than ever, NAILBERRY offers a compelling option for anyone who loves painted nails but refuses to compromise on wellbeing.
None of this comes at the expense of performance — the polishes go on easily, dry quickly, and deliver rich, glossy, long-lasting color. Special UV filters keep them from yellowing or fading in the sun. The current NAILBERRY range spans 58 shades, regularly refreshed with limited seasonal colors, alongside matching top and base coats and nail care products. The result: frequent, varied manicures and genuinely healthy, well-cared-for nails no longer need to be at odds.
