Every polish in this collection is mixed and bottled in Canada by an independent maker. Canada has a small but serious indie polish scene, and most of these brands are solo artists or two-person teams pouring each bottle by hand in Winnipeg, Ontario, and British Columbia.
Makers in this collection
Prairie Crocus Polish out of Winnipeg makes up most of what you see here, alongside Clionadh Cosmetics, Grackle Lacquer, Paint it Pretty Polish, ANLAC, Inspired Sense, Bedford and Grove, and Unity Colour Creations.
What Canadian indies are known for
Small-batch production, unusual colour ranges, and specialty finishes: thermals that shift with temperature, magnetic cat eyes, and holographics. Most are 10-free, vegan, and cruelty-free.
Ordering from the US
Everything ships from Canada in a single order, with duties covered in the shipping fee, so nothing unexpected lands on you at delivery. Many of these makers do not have US distribution, and several shades here are limited runs.
