NEW POLISH RELEASES
Moonstone Nail Polish
Moonstone Nail Polish have release some new manicure products to their range, namely a base coat, quick-dry top coat, matte top coat and holographic top coat. Check the products in store for more info.
Loki's Lacquer
Sadly, Loki's Lacquer will cease selling Indie polish on 1 April. You can still purchase from the farewell collection, the "Really Really Really Goodlooking Collection", which is based on the movie Zoolander. This collection really showcases Tara's creativity both in her polish themes, and in the naming, and this Ed will sure miss this little corker of a brand.

POLISH RELATED INDIE NEWS
Help Me Ronda
This is the last week to pre-order your Easter Edition Hydration Balm. Order by midnight of Wednesday 2nd April for shipping on Friday 4th.
The hydration balms are made in batches of 6, so once the pre-orders are filled, any spare product will be available for purchase after the 4th. Once that is sold out, they won't be available again.
A special message from Ronda about the Easter Edition Hydration Balms:
These balms are made of Mango butter, Coconut oil and Evening Primrose oil with a spot of Tea Tree oil. They are super moisturising with an added antiseptic effect from the tea tree. The balm will leave your cuticles (and any other dry bits) feeling and looking soft as well as smelling delicious!
