What's inside Nail Refresh

A plant-led oil blend, with no harsh solvents and no synthetic fragrance. Here is every botanical in the bottle and the role it plays in the routine.

The two heroes

Tea tree & oregano oil

These two essential oils are the heart of Nail Refresh — the most-researched botanicals in the world of nail care.

Hero botanical

Australian Tea Tree Oil

Steam-distilled from Melaleuca alternifolia, tea tree is one of the most widely studied skin oils. Laboratory research has examined its antimicrobial properties, and it has a long tradition in everyday nail and skin care.

Hero botanical

Greek Mountain Oregano Oil

Sourced from wild Mediterranean oregano, this oil is naturally rich in carvacrol — a phenolic compound examined in lab studies for antimicrobial activity. It gives the blend its warm, herbal character.

The supporting cast

Carrier & conditioning oils

These oils carry the blend across the nail, soften the surrounding skin, and give Nail Refresh its clean, non-greasy finish.

Carrier oil

Jojoba Oil

Closely matched to the skin's own sebum, jojoba is light, fast-absorbing and a classic conditioner for dry cuticles.

Carrier oil

Sweet Almond Oil

A gentle, nourishing base oil rich in fatty acids, traditionally used to soften and smooth tired skin around the nail.

Skin botanical

Rosehip Oil

Pressed from rosehip seeds and prized for skin-loving fatty acids, included to nourish the skin surrounding the nail.

Soothing aroma

Lavender Oil

A familiar, calming essential oil added for its gentle aroma and long history in soothing everyday skin care.

Penetration

Cedarwood Oil

A woody essential oil included to help the blend spread and penetrate, with a clean, grounding scent.

Hydration

Aloe Vera & Glycerin

A soothing, hydrating duo that gives the oil a softer feel and helps tired nail skin look less dry and cracked.

Fresh finish

Menthol

A small amount of menthol adds a cooling, fresh finish and helps the oils glide across the nail and skin.

If you have a known allergy to any botanical or essential oil listed, or you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your GP or pharmacist before use. Always read the full ingredient list on the bottle you receive and patch-test before first use.

What you won't find

A short "free-from" note

No synthetic fragrance

The scent comes from the essential oils themselves, not added perfume.

No harsh solvents

It's an oil blend, not a strong chemical lacquer or remover.

Pharma actives

Nail Refresh is a cosmetic oil — it does not contain prescription antifungal drugs.

Nail Refresh does not contain pharmaceutical antifungal actives and is not a medicine. It is a cosmetic topical oil intended to support the appearance of healthier-looking nails. For a diagnosed nail infection, speak to your GP, pharmacist or podiatrist about appropriate treatment.
