As a beauty enthusiast and influencer, I’m always on the lookout for exceptional self-care experiences. Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting the L’Occitane boutique in Manchester to try out their much raved about Natural Manicure service and let me tell you, it was nothing short of amazing!
From the moment I stepped into the boutique, I was welcomed by the warm and inviting ambiance that L’Occitane is known for. The space was beautifully curated, filled with the signature Provencal charm and the soothing scent of their luxurious skincare products.
Natural Manicure was designed in collaboration with renowned nail artist Georgia Rae, the Natural Manicure focuses on nail health and elegance, rather than just aesthetics. It’s perfect for those who love clean, well-groomed nails with a natural shine.

Here’s what you can expect from this luxurious 45-minute treatment:
1. Cuticle Care
The session started with gentle cuticle care, softening and tidying my cuticles to create a healthy foundation for my nails. This step really made a difference in how polished and fresh my nails looked afterward.
2. Nail Shaping
Next, my Beauty Host carefully shaped my nails to complement my hands and personal style. Whether you love a rounded, square, or natural shape, they tailor the service to your preference. I opted for a soft, almond shape, which looked effortlessly elegant.
3. Nail Buffing
Instead of applying nail polish, the expert used gentle buffing techniques to give my nails a healthy, natural shine. I was amazed at how smooth and glossy they looked—like a fresh coat of clear polish, but completely natural!
4. Relaxing Hand Massage
One of my favorite parts of the experience was the luxurious hand massage using L’Occitane’s signature hand care products. My skin felt silky soft and deeply nourished, thanks to their Shea Butter Hand Cream and Nail & Cuticle Oil. This step truly elevated the entire experience into a spa-like moment of relaxation.
5. Extend the Care at Home
After the treatment, I was delighted to learn that my £25 booking fee was fully redeemable against L’Occitane purchases. Naturally, I picked up their One-Minute Hand Scrub, Cuticle Oil, and Hand Cream to maintain my beautifully cared-for hands at home.
