• Quick-dry formula: Sets to a touch-dry finish faster than traditional polish, reducing smudge risk.
• Glossy finish: Mimics a salon-style shine without a UV cure.
• French-manicure shades: The Excuse My French range is designed specifically around soft pinks, neutrals and creams that suit the classical French look.
• Standard wand applicator: Gives easy, controllable coverage on the nail.

Shade — Vanilla Dream

Vanilla Dream is a soft, creamy off-white shade — the perfect "just-natural" finish for everyday wear and a flattering alternative to a sharp white French tip. Pairs well with most skin tones and reads polished rather than statement-making. Useful as a daily-wear shade, a pre-event base, or as a clean stand-alone alternative to a French manicure.

How to use

1. Start with clean, dry nails. Buff lightly and wipe over with a polish remover to lift any oil from the nail bed.
2. Apply a base coat to protect the natural nail and improve adhesion.
3. Roll the bottle gently between the palms to mix the formula — do not shake, which creates bubbles.
4. Apply Vanilla Dream in two thin coats: one stroke down the centre of the nail, then one each side. Allow to dry briefly between coats.
5. Finish with a clear top coat to lock in the gloss and extend wear.
