There are two kinds of nail girls this season, and honestly, we love them both. There’s the one who treats a fresh manicure like a weekly ritual, complete with base coat, three coats of color, and meticulous cuticle care. Then there’s the one who presses on ten perfect tips and is out the door before the polish even has a chance to dry. Wherever you land, this fall’s Add-Ons lineup has you covered.
The Ritual Girl
You don’t just paint your nails, you maintain them. Cuticle care, base coat, the works. A chipped manicure is basically a personal emergency, and you’d rather spend an extra twenty minutes getting it right than settle for anything less than salon-worthy.
This season, the ritual girl is trading summer brights for richer, moodier shades. Think oxblood, deep forest or olive green, and black cherry, the kind of colors that pair perfectly with oversized knits and crisp autumn days. Tortoiseshell and mocha gradients are also having a major moment, with caramel melting into espresso for an effortlessly fall-inspired finish. If solid color is more your style, a velvety matte top coat instantly elevates any manicure, while a magnetic cat-eye finish adds eye-catching dimension. Not quite ready to commit to a full seasonal switch? A minimalist French tip in mustard, burgundy, or olive is an easy way to ease into fall.
The right prep makes every manicure look better, and that’s where Londontown shines. Start with the Grip Lock Base Coat to help your polish last longer, prep with the Cuticle Pusher and Heart Glass Nail File for a clean, salon-fresh foundation, and finish with the High Gloss Top Coat for a glossy shine that rivals a professional manicure. It’s everything you need to turn your at-home manicure into a ritual worth looking forward to.
The Instant Girl
Ten minutes, zero dry time, and a completely fresh manicure. You’re not interested in waiting around; you just want great nails that fit your schedule. That’s exactly where Chillhouse comes in.
