How expensive could a manicure get? Well, quite expensive if you’re the kind of
person that likes nail polish made of real gold or some glitter for your nails in the form of diamond or pearls. Here’s a low-down on the most high-end manicures you can get in the world — and what you can get for all those pretty pennies.
Azature’s Black Diamond
What do you do when you set out to create the world’s most expensive nail polish? Add diamonds to it. While the mere idea of diamonds in a nail polish may sound unbelievable, this is exactly what luxury couturier Azature has done with its ultra-premium luxe lacquer, the Azature Black Diamond. A nail polish that is studded with 267 carats of black diamonds, this premium product costs a whopping $250,000 — which makes it costlier than a Lamborghini. Now obviously there are not too many people in the world who can dig that deep into their pockets for these diamonds. But more disheartening is the fact that these diamonds won’t last forever. In fact, they’d chip away in a very short span of time.

Iced Manicure by Cherish Me
As the name suggests, this manicure gives an icy diamond like finish to your nails and is not just a nail polish but also a complete nail treatment that can apparently only be given by a certified expert. Made in Dubai — which is fast becoming the world’s capital for everything that’s outrageously rich — this product costs a whopping $51,000 and once again comes with real diamonds encrusted on to it worth 10 carats.

Gold Rush Couture nail polish
If diamonds come first, then it is only sensible that gold takes the second spot. This uber luxe nail polish created by couturier Models Own costs a whopping $130,000 and also comes with a fine sprinkling of diamonds encrusted on the golden bottle. A hit with celebrities, this product is a favourite for anyone who wants to show some bling. The previous holder of the ‘World’s most expensive nail polish tag’ this premium product comes packaged in a golden bottle that has a lid featuring 1,118 diamonds.

Leighton Denny's Diamond, Sapphire, and Ruby 'Encapsulation'
Third on the list is a premium product that comes from one of the world’s most expensive spas and is crafted by one of the world’s most famous and sought after manicurist Leighton Denny. The Encapsulation is an assortment of Diamonds, sapphires, rubies and all things rich and extravagant put into one bottle. Costing a whopping $31,000, each bottle of Leighton Denny’s Encapsulation holds nine karats of diamonds in it. It is also one of the most sought after brands among the richest — primarily because of the name attached to it.

Calling this product a nail product would hardly do it justice. A more apt way to put it would be a bottle of powdered pure platinum that adds class to your nails. Brought to the market through a collaboration between four giant brands from different specialities, this nail polish was launched back in 2005 in Las Vegas and costs a little over $55,000 and was only launched in special and extremely limited editions.

While it is extremely hard to get your hands on one, the collaboration also brought out a common market version, which was priced at $250. In fact, so exclusive is this product, that there’s not even a proper picture of it available on the Internet except for this one.
