Innovative, organic, and made in Brittany, Unaöd is revolutionising the world of manicures with a 2-in-1 solid remover that’s both gentle on the nails and ruthless on polish.
As summer approaches, the desire for vibrant, pastel or bold manicures is on the rise. But many beauty lovers often ask the same question: how can we remove polish without damaging our nails? Gone are the days of harsh, pungent removers with drying effects. Enter Unaöd, a young Breton brand making waves in the world of hand care with its organic solid nail polish remover.
Formulated with natural ingredients and designed as a treatment in its own right, this product combines high performance with respect for nail health. An innovation already winning over fans of conscious beauty!
A 2-in-1 nail polish remover, treatment meets efficiency
Unlike traditional removers, which are often harsh and acetone-based, Unaöd relies on a gentle, intelligent formula. The main solvent? Ethyl lactate, derived from sugar fermentation—kind to both nails and the planet. On the care side, the magic lies in a blend of plant-based waxes from mimosa and jojoba, which nourish and protect.
But the real standout feature is a patented active ingredient derived from celery seeds, which strengthens the nails, reduces ridges, and helps prevent splitting. The result? A flawless manicure without any drying effect. And the formulation itself is near-perfect: rated 100/100 on Yuka, it ticks every box for even the most demanding users.
Application is simple: scoop out a small amount of product with a reusable wipe, apply a generous layer to the nail, leave it on for 20 seconds, then gently massage in circular motions. A gentle, almost soothing method that turns nail polish removal into a true moment of care.

Unaöd: a Breton brand where science meets nature
Behind Unaöd are two names: Marine Bizouarn and Gaëlle Marrot. Friends and passionate scientists, they met at university, united by their love for natural cosmetics. In 2021, Marine realised that nail polish remover—despite being a beauty essential—was the most harmful item in her kit.
That sparked the idea: a solid remover made from organic, ethically sourced ingredients, gentle yet effective. The first prototypes were an instant hit, winning two awards at the U’Cosmetics competition. By June 2022, Unaöd was officially launched.
Located near Saint-Brieuc, their Cosmebio-certified laboratory became the birthplace of this Breton innovation. The brand quickly expanded its range to include hand care products made with heather, an iconic plant of the region. Cream, soap, scrub—everything is designed to offer a complete and sensorial wellness ritual.
Marine and Gaëlle have turned a brilliant idea into a cohesive, respectful range that sits at the crossroads of science, nature and innovation. Their Breton adventure continues to shine, driven by strong values and a nail polish remover that is, quite literally, a game-changer. It is currently available online for €16.95 and in over 100 retail locations across France, including pharmacies, para-pharmacies, concept stores and beauty salons.
