FAQs

What is the key characteristic of the 'Orange Tonique' shade?

'Orange Tonique' is a vibrant, summery coral shade with a hint of pink, inspired by the Rouge Hermès collection and designed to evoke the feeling of a bright summer day.

What does 'at least 71% ingredients of natural origin' mean for the formula?

This indicates that a significant majority of the ingredients used in the nail enamel are derived from natural sources, aligning with a preference for more natural formulations in beauty products.

Is the engraved cap a permanent feature for Hermes nail enamels?

No, the colored cap featuring the engraved Hermès Ex-Libris is specific to this limited-edition collection. Standard Hermes nail enamels may have different cap designs.

How long does the glossy finish typically last?

The enamel is formulated for a long-lasting, glossy result. With proper application and the use of a top coat, it is designed to maintain its shine and resist chipping for a considerable period, though individual wear time can vary.

What is the significance of the design by Pierre Hardy?

Pierre Hardy is a renowned designer known for his work with Hermes. The nail enamel bottle is considered a designed object, reflecting the brand's commitment to artistry and craftsmanship in every product.

Can this nail enamel be used with gel or acrylic nails?

Yes, the nail enamel is compatible with various nail types, including natural, gel, and acrylic nails. It can be applied over base coats and under top coats as usual.

What is the expected shelf life of the nail enamel?

While there isn't a strict expiration date, nail polish is best used within 2-3 years of opening for optimal performance. If the consistency changes significantly or it develops an unusual odor, it may be time to replace it.

Troubleshooting

Enamel is too thick or streaky upon application

Ensure the bottle has not been shaken too vigorously, which can introduce air bubbles. If the formula has thickened over time, it may be nearing the end of its optimal use period. Avoid adding thinning solutions, as this can alter the formula's performance and ingredient balance. Ensure each coat is applied thinly.

Enamel is not drying properly

Apply thinner coats rather than thick ones, as thicker coats take longer to dry. Ensure adequate drying time between coats (1-2 minutes). Avoid environments with high humidity, which can slow drying.

Color appears different on the nail than in the bottle

Nail color appearance can vary based on natural nail undertones and the number of coats applied. Check the color under different lighting conditions. Apply a second coat for a more true-to-bottle color representation.

Limited edition product is out of stock

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Application:

  1. Ensure nails are clean, dry, and free from oils or old polish. Use a nail file to shape and a buffer for smoothness if desired.
  2. For best results and longevity, apply a base coat.
  3. Shake the bottle gently to mix the formula. Apply one thin coat of 'Orange Tonique' nail enamel, ensuring even coverage.
  4. Allow the first coat to dry for 1-2 minutes before applying a second coat for deeper color intensity.
  5. Finish with a top coat for added shine and protection.

Compatibility:

This nail enamel is designed for use on natural or artificial nails. It is compatible with standard base coats and top coats.

Care:

  • Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the formula's integrity.
  • Keep the cap tightly closed after each use to prevent the enamel from drying out.
  • Clean the brush bristles with a nail polish remover if they become stiff or clogged, ensuring it's fully dry before next use.
