Jessica Midnight Merlot is a deep blackened red nail polish with a classic creme finish, created for rich, sophisticated colour on natural nails. The dark wine-inspired shade gives you the depth of an almost-black manicure while retaining a noticeable red tone, making it a versatile choice for autumn and winter looks, evening wear, special occasions or whenever you prefer a deeper nail colour.

The creme finish applies without shimmer or glitter, allowing the colour itself to take centre stage. Two coats help build an even, polished result, while careful preparation with the appropriate Jessica base coat and finishing products can help your manicure look smoother and stay looking neat for longer. Jessica Midnight Merlot can be worn on fingernails or toenails and works particularly well when you want a dramatic colour that still feels timeless and wearable.

Suitable for: Natural nails and anyone looking for a deep red nail polish with a dark, elegant creme finish.

Benefits:

  • Blackened red shade: Combines rich red colour with a deeper finish for a sophisticated manicure.

How to use:
