A story of women and family

Everything started in 1996, in Paris, when my mother, Fanny, opened her first nail salon: “Manucurist.”

Immersed in the world of beauty from a young age, I overheard long conversations between women sharing common concerns: lack of time for self-care, disappointment with traditional nail polishes, and the damage caused by the application and removal of semi-permanent gels…

After several years working for major luxury brands such as Louis Vuitton, Prada, and Yves Saint Laurent, I took over the family business with the goal of adding my love for color, my experience in fashion, and steering it towards an eco-friendly and health-conscious approach.

My ambition was to create the first green and clean alternative to traditional semi-permanent nail polishes. The Green Flash range was born in 2019, a true revolution in the world of manicures.
