How to use Advent Calendar Time to Flash! products?

Day after day, open each box of the Time to Flash! Advent Calendar and discover a surprise designed to enhance your nails.

Nail preparation
Prepare your nails perfectly in 4 steps with the included essentials:
- Nail File: shorten if needed and shape your nails.
- Cuticle Remover: leave on for 2 minutes to soften cuticles.
- Steel Cuticle Pusher: gently push back cuticles for a clean contour.
- Nail Buffer: lightly buff the nail surface to improve polish adhesion.

Green Flash™
Step 1 - On bare nails, apply a thin coat of Vitaminized Base Coat to help extend wear. Cure under the LED lamp (Base Coat program). Enriched with patented KeraHCE+ technology, it strengthens and protects the nails beneath the color.
Step 2 - Apply a first thin coat of your favorite Green Flash™ shade, chosen from our collection of 100 colors. Cure under the LED lamp (Color program). Repeat this step to build up 2 thin coats of color. Between each coat, correct any excess product or overflow using the Corrector Pen.
Step 3 - Choose your favorite top coat from those included in the calendar:
- Classic Green Flash™ Top Coat or Green Flash™ Silver Shimmery Top Coat: apply a thin coat of your chosen Green Flash™ Top Coat. Cure under the LED lamp (Top Coat program).
- Xtrem Flash™ Top Coat: apply a thin coat of Xtrem Flash™ Top Coat to four fingers laid flat (excluding the thumb - this prevents the gel texture from running into the cuticles and causing premature lifting of the manicure), then cure under the LED lamp (Top Coat program). Repeat separately on the thumb, keeping it flat, then cure.

Result: an ultra-glossy finish with up to 21 days of wear.*

Removal: cut small pieces of cotton pads and soak them thoroughly with Green Flash™ Gentle Remover. Hold them with the Removal Clips for 1 minute when removing Green Flash™ Top Coat, or 10 minutes when removing Xtrem Flash™ Top Coat. The polish will lift off on its own ! Remove any remaining residue using a wooden stick.

Festive Nail Art
Use the included Gold Glitters and Mani Stamper to create festive looks!
- Gold Glitters: apply over your Green Flash™ shade of choice using either your fingertip or a brush.
- Mani Stamper: apply a thin layer of color to the stamper, then gently place the tip of the nail onto it. Roll the nail lightly from one side to the other to create the French tip. After curing under the LED lamp, apply a layer of your chosen Top Coat.

Nail and Hand Care
Reveal the beauty of your nails and hands with strengthening, nourishing, and moisturizing care.
- Keratin Booster: helps strengthen and regenerate nails. Apply 1 to 3 times a day on bare nails using the brush. Let absorb completely. No need to rinse or massage.
- Nail & Cuticle Oil: to intensely nourish nails, apply a drop of oil to the nails and surrounding skin after your Green Flash™ manicure, or directly to bare nails. Massage gently to help absorption.
- Rose Fragrance Hand Cream: use as often as desired to keep hands moisturized. Reapply throughout the day, especially after washing your hands, to prevent dryness.

*with the Xtrem Flash™ Top Coat.

FAQs

Les questions les plus fréquemment posées par nos utilisatrices et notre communauté !

What does the Advent Calendar Time to Flash! contain?

The calendar contains 24 full-size products from the Green Flash™ range: 10 Green Flash™ nail polishes, 5 Green Flash™ essentials, 4 nail and hand care products, 4 manicure accessories and 1 case of biodegradable Gold Glitters.

What is the difference between the Advent Calendar Time to Shine! and the Advent Calendar Time to Flash!?

Both calendars contain 24 full-size products and a selection of nail care products and accessories to keep your nails looking their best throughout the festive season.

The main difference lies in the type of nail polish included:
- The Advent Calendar Time to Shine! contains classic air-dry Green™ nail polishes, as well as Active™ nail care polishes.
- The Advent Calendar Time to Flash! contains Green Flash™ gel-like nail polishes, offering up to 21 days of wear*, instant drying under an LED lamp, and gentle peel-off removal without acetone or buffing.

The Advent Calendar Time to Shine! is the ideal choice for lovers of classic nail polish and care polishes who enjoy changing colors to suit their mood. For a gel-like manicure experience and a selection of Green Flash™ products, choose the Advent Calendar Time to Flash!.

*with Xtrem Flash™ Top Coat.

Is the LED Lamp included in the Advent Calendar Time to Flash!?

The LED Lamp is not included in the Advent Calendar Time to Flash!. The Green Flash™ nail polishes and manicure products included in the calendar require the use of an LED lamp to cure each layer (base coat, color, and top coat). If you do not already own a Green Flash™ LED lamp, you will need to purchase one separately in order to complete your manicure.

Why is my manicure chipping or wrinkling?

The coats may be too thick or not fully cured. Apply thin coats and cure with your hand flat, ensuring your nails are centered under the lamp.

Why did my manicure lift shortly after application?

This may happen if the Xtrem Flash™ Top Coat has spread onto the cuticles or sidewalls during application. When the product comes into contact with the skin, it cannot adhere properly to the nail and may cause lifting. To avoid this, push back your cuticles before your manicure and always leave a small gap between the polish and the cuticles, as well as around the edges of the nail.

Why won’t my manicure peel off during removal?

The remover may not have been left on long enough, or the cotton pad may not have been sufficiently soaked. Leave it on for a full minute under the clips, then gently remove any remaining product using an orangewood stick.

Can Green Flash™ nail polishes cause allergic reactions?

The Green Flash™ formula complies with European regulations and is also certified gluten-free. However, as allergic reactions are not specifically linked to synthetic ingredients, they can sometimes occur with naturally derived ingredients as well.

If you are unsure, we recommend seeking advice from your doctor.

Can pregnant and/or breastfeeding women use Green Flash™ products?

Although most of our products, including our Green Flash™ formulas, are naturally derived, they have not been specifically tested on pregnant or breastfeeding women. As a precaution, we recommend discussing their use with your healthcare professional, who will be able to advise you according to your individual situation.

Un calendrier très bien pensé

"Un calendrier très bien pensé tant au niveaude la présentation que des produits. La présentation à l'intérieur du coffret avec les dessins comme un puzzle est très sympa. Les produits sont bien choisis car ils vont du premier soin des ongles jusqu'à la phase finale après la pose du vernis. Les couleurs de vernis de la plus claire a la plus foncée sont tres bien. Je recommande!!"

— Marielle C. (5/5)

I love this so much!

"I love this so much! It has been one of the highlights of this month! Honestly, I might have to get this advent calendar every year if they change up what they include enough. The nail polishes dry incredibly fast, last as long as they say they do (a week), and the products are all full sizes. Incredibly good deal overall - you actually get your moneys worth. The packaging is really good quality as well."

— Penelope T. (5/5)

amazing products fantastic price & wrapped!

"Wow! This is an incredible assortment of top Manucurist products. Getting these many items for the low price is an incredible deal. The color choices are fabulous and the all in one plus basics like base and top coats are tried and true! So glad I bought the advent calendar."

— Jane M. (5/5)

Produit défectueux

"Nous sommes le 19/12 et en ouvrant la case correspondante, je découvre un vernis presque vide et tout desséché. Très décevant."

— Eva (2/5)

Super bonne valeur. Ça me

"Super bonne valeur. Ça me rapporte de la joie tous les jours. Les couleurs sont classiques, avec quelques surprises. Dans la photo j'ai eu la couleur plum."

— Olga C. (5/5)

I ordered the Advent calendar

"I ordered the Advent calendar and I love the products. It included everything I needed to care for my nails. I started with raspberry and loved the sheer color. The applicator brush is nicely rounded to fit your nail. I have tried several other colors and am wearing prune today. The dark color is smooth and coats well. I like doing the routine of caring for my nails once a week, although I think the polish would probably stay on longer than seven days. I have recommended Manicurist several times already."

— Katherine P. (5/5)

Trop hâte de l’ouvrir !

"Ne connaissant pas la marque, je me suis dit que le calendrier de l’avent était une belle manière de la découvrir. J’ai essayé de ne pas trop me spoiler mais je sais qu’il comprend tout le nécessaire pour faire de belles manucures. Trop hâte de procéder à son ouverture ! En tout cas, il est joli, compact et bien lourd."

— Stéphanie (5/5)

Comme toujours un plaisir d’ouvrir

"Comme toujours un plaisir d’ouvrir chaque case et de découvrir un produit de qualité. Plein de nouvelles couleurs ! J’en ai tant que je ne sais plus où les mettre. J’ai acheté de petits supports mais vous devriez en faire"

— Sylvie T. (5/5)
