Nail Polish - Bichon

Be kind to the tips of your nails!

The majority of nail polishes on the market contain multiple toxic ingredients that can be harmful to health. Also, while this information is often not shared, many nail polishes unfortunately contain animal-derived ingredients. For example, cochineal insect pigment is sometimes used to make reds more vivid, or guanine crystals, from fish scales or chameleons, are used to add luster and shine in cosmetics.

To provide a kinder option, our nail polishes are vegan, 77% plant-based and 21-FREE, meaning they are free from 21 toxic ingredients normally found in nail polishes. Now you can enjoy beautiful colored nails while respecting animals, the environment and yourself!

Prepare your nails by applying a thin layer of Base coat and let it dry completely (about 3 minutes). Apply 2 thin coats of your favorite nail polish colour, waiting about 5 minutes between layers. Finish your manicure/pedicure with our Top coat and let it dry completely for another 5 minutes.

When your nail polish starts chipping, remove it with our non-toxic and natural Nail polish remover.

*Beauty tip: for best results, apply 2-3 thin coats of nail polish rather than one thick coat! 🙊

Transparency is essential to us, and we want to openly address something important with our community. While we're proudly Canadian, our plant-based nail polish has always been manufactured in the USA, since 2017. We’ve noticed a common assumption that our nail polish production is based in Canada, and we want to clarify this. We chose to partner with a highly reputable European lab that has established their manufacturing facility in the USA, less than 5 hours' drive from our warehouse. To us, sourcing our products within a 5-hour radius aligns with our commitment to supporting local economies and reducing our environmental impact. At present, there is no manufacturer of plant-based nail polish on the American continent, making our choice even more deliberate. We selected our lab partner not only due to proximity but also because of their strong dedication to sustainability:

• They capture and reprocess volatile organic compounds (VOCs), significantly reducing environmental impact.
• They recycle 100% of wastewater used in production.
• They recycle 97% of hazardous waste and 100% of solvents used during manufacturing.
• The bio-sourced ingredients in our polish are responsibly and sustainably procured.

We want to assure you our decision to manufacture in the USA is based purely on logistics, sustainability, and the absence of suitable alternatives closer to home. Your trust means everything to us, and we remain committed to transparency every step of the way.
