Find your perfect sheer nail polish — a translucent wash of color for a natural, your-nails-but-better look. Sheer polish tints rather than covers: soft pinks, milky whites, and warm nudes that even out the nail and add a healthy glow while letting your natural nail show through. It is the manicure that looks polished without looking painted.
Our sheer polishes are 17-Free, vegan, and cruelty-free. Apply one coat for a barely-there tint or two for a little more color, always over a base coat for the smoothest finish. Sheer pink is the classic French-manicure base and the easiest everyday shade — it grows out invisibly and suits every skin tone.
Frequently asked questions
What is sheer nail polish?
Sheer polish is translucent - it tints the nail with a delicate veil of color while letting your natural nail show through. The result is the classic your-nails-but-better look.
Can I layer sheer polish for more color?
Yes - sheers are buildable. One coat is barely-there, two or three deepen the tint while keeping that lit-from-within translucency that opaque polish can't replicate.
Are sheer shades good for short or natural nails?
They're ideal - sheers flatter short nails, disguise tip-wear almost completely, and grow out gracefully, making them the lowest-maintenance finish you can wear.
What occasions call for a sheer finish?
Weddings, interviews, minimalist everyday wear, and French-style manicures - anywhere understated elegance wins.
