Natural nail polishes – vibrant colors and modern formulas
Breathable nail polishes such as Nailberry L’Oxygéné and modern polishes with a high proportion of plant-based ingredients offer a distinctive alternative to classic nail polish. Selected formulas avoid ingredients such as toluene, formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate or camphor. The colors apply precisely and deliver good coverage, shine and staying power. From subtle pale pink to bold, vibrant colors: discover our carefully selected nail polishes for a beautiful manicure.
Nail polish with carefully selected ingredients
A subtle pale pink or bold, vibrant colors: painted nails are a must for many women. Conventional nail polishes contain solvents, film formers, color pigments and other ingredients that are important for application, shine and staying power. Plant-based nail polishes are not solvent-free either. Rather, their particular advantage is that certain ingredients come from renewable resources and the brands consciously avoid selected substances. For example, depending on the polish, Kure Bazaar uses up to 90 % bio-based ingredients; OZN also uses formulas with around 90 % plant-based ingredients. These formulas combine vibrant colors with a glossy finish.
Free nail polish: 5-Free, 7-Free, 12-Free
The terms 3-Free, 5-Free, 7-Free or 12-Free describe how many selected substances a nail polish formula excludes. However, exactly which substances are meant depends on the brand. A higher number therefore does not automatically prove better tolerance or greater environmental friendliness. It’s especially useful to check the specific ingredients excluded and the full product formula.
Our brands show that nail polish made with carefully chosen ingredients doesn’t have to compromise on beautiful colors, coverage or staying power. For example, Nailberry polishes are 12-Free and form a film proven to be permeable to oxygen and water vapor. This is a special feature of this formula, not a general characteristic of all nail polishes.
Differences between nail polishes that exclude selected ingredients
The following Free labels are intended as a guide. The exact exclusion list always depends on the brand and formula.
- 3-Free polishes: typically exclude toluene, formaldehyde and dibutyl phthalate (DBP).
- 5-Free polishes: often also exclude camphor and formaldehyde resin.
- 7-Free polishes: exclude additional substances specified by each brand. The label alone does not mean vegan or cruelty-free; these attributes are indicated separately.
- 10-Free polishes: add further ingredients to the exclusion list, which may vary by brand.
- 12-Free polishes: exclude twelve selected substances. Our brands with these formulas include Nailberry and Kure Bazaar.
- 15-Free polishes: exclude other selected ingredients; refer to the information provided by each brand for the specific list.
