If you're obsessed with your nails, you know that the love of lacquer can get costly — fancy nail art, spa pedicures, and gel treatments don't come cheap. But what if you want costly claws? Maybe you're in search of the most luxurious, celebrity-approved manicure of all time. If so, look no further: here's how to get a million-dollar manicure that wouldn't be out of place texting on a megayacht or adjusting a tiara.
Dior Nail Polish Remover
Start by removing your old, pedestrian, less-than-$1-million manicure. This Dior nail polish remover ($21) will help brighten and strengthen your nails as it cleans them, making your nails pretty enough to not need polish.
Chanel Cotton Pads
You weren't going to use ordinary cotton balls to take your nail polish off, were you? Chanel's Le Coton ($20) is made from handpicked Egyptian cotton, stuffed with soft Australian fibers, and developed in Japan. We're kind of surprised that, with all those bells and whistles, the pads won't remove our nail polish for us.
Leighton Denny Crystal Nail Files
Leighton Denny files ($50) are made of fine lead crystals and housed in a velvet-lined portfolio. The tools are meant to last a lifetime and even referred to as "the Rolls-Royce of nail files" (what, were you expecting the Kia of nail files in this roundup?).
Sisley Anti-Age SPF 15 Hand Cream
If your hands are feeling rough from all the dishwashing you're not doing as a multimillionaire, slather on Sisley's Global Anti-Age Sunscreen Hand Cream ($169). Not only does it contain SPF 15 to protect your skin from signs of aging, but it also features nasturtium petal and appleseed extract to help brighten and firm.
Christian Louboutin Nail Polish
Now for the expensive part . . . The lacquer! Christian Louboutin's Rouge Louboutin nail polish ($50) is the same color of his shoes' iconic red soles. Fun fact: the iconic ruby color on the bottom of the haute shoes happened when Christian Louboutin himself painted them red with nail polish during his early crafting days.
Azature Black Diamond Nail Lacquer
Ringing in at $250,000 (or about the price of four years' private-college tuition) is Azature's Black Diamond polish. It contains 267 carats of black diamonds (and some diamonds on the cap). Only one of these luxe lacquers were made, but if you still want jewel-encrusted nails, Azature sells a more affordable version of this polish ($25) with a carat's worth of black diamonds. But for those who truly seek a regal manicure . . .
Azature White Diamond Nail Lacquer
. . . Perhaps Azature's White Diamond polish, ringing in at $1 million, is the blinged beauty you crave. It contains 98 carats of white diamonds, not to mention 1,400 hand-selected diamonds set in the bottle's platinum cap. But it's not all vanity — this polish was sold for the charity Lupus LA in honor of Toni Braxton's battle against the disease. Now that your armed and ready to DIY this luxurious at-home spa treatment, we wish the best of luck . . . to your bank account!
