Indie

Today I have another UK Indie Polish (expect more of these, I’m a woman on a mission!) to show you. I told you I was determined to get through them! I do have rather a large collection though so indie posts will be interspersed with branded nail polish posts.

This brand is by my lovely friend Jemma, with whom I have essay-long conversations on Facebook! It’s called Chubby Owl Polish – just the cutest name ever – and with the most adorable little logo. The nail polish I’m showing you today unfortunately isn’t on sale any more but Jemma has loads of pretty colourful polishes in the shop on a regular basis, so it’s always worth a look.

**UPDATE** Jemma will be popping Midnight Owls in the shop at the end of this week for anyone who fancies it! 😀 x

I’m making headway with my untried UK indies! I have a lorra love for my fellow UK indie girls, they’re all so lovely and all with lovely polishes! Here is one by Nail Lacquer UK, made by AJ, who also runs the blog Nail Lacquer UK. I just love both – she does incredible nail art on her blog and her polishes are just gorgeous!

The one I’m showing today isn’t in the shop any more, but she has plenty more pretty polishes worth a browse! I believe it was part of her Christmas collection, of which I have two 🙂 I think this polish could be worn all year-round though, it’s quite a versatile colour. Each polish by AJ comes with the cutest little charm around the neck, as shown in the first photo – I think it’s such a nice unique touch to the product :).

Hey everyone! I’m trying to make some headway with my ever-growing UK indie stash, so here is a pretty polish that’s been left untried for a while. I’m not sure I chose the right underwear for it but it certainly made for an interesting manicure! It did look much nicer in person, honestly! 🙂

This is Tainted Love, from Hairy Legs London – a brand I fell in love with from the moment I read the name. So quirky and funky! But in all seriousness, there are some amazingly unique polishes in the shop – well worth a browse!

Hello lovelies 🙂 I have a beautiful UK indie handmade polish to show you today from the lovely Jess (@claws4paws on instagram). There’s an ever-growing number of us UK indie makers – have a look at my UK Indie Nail Polish Makers page to see all of us! Jess is a lovely who’s brand is inspired by kitties 🙂 I’m a cat lover (and dog lover, before you ask!) myself, so I am endlessly browsing her FatPussPolish etsy shop! I love the cute labels too :).

I have a really nice glitter topper to show you today – this one is totally unique for me, I don’t have anything like this in my collection at all!

Soooo I failed a little – I missed yesterday’s blogmas post, sorry ladies! <3 I do have a gorgeous polish to show you today so hopefully it’s worth the wait.

In recent months my indie collection has had a bit of an explosive growth – little over a year ago I didn’t own a single indie but now I have a lot (oh god, there is actually so many I’m ashamed…). For those of you who don’t know, indie polish is ‘independent’ polish, usually either handmade or private labelled by an individual person. I myself am an ‘indie maker’ here in the UK, which I think gives me an appreciation for everything that goes into each bottle, so I am happy to support handmade! <3

Wing Dust is currently one of my favourite brands, every single collection holds several gems and it definitely inspires me too.
