About Small-Batch Colours

Small-batch shades are low-quantity colours I make sporadically, as a fun little limited-edition release whenever the mood takes me. Or if I’m doing mixing for our Monthlies (PPU, HHC, etc) and make a colour that I have less ingredients for or think it suits just 15 or 20 bottles being made :-) These colours typically aren’t made to be available long-term, thus I do not send Small-Batch Colours to my swatchers, which is a process that takes several months as our swatchers are all over the world! I do my best to accurately represent the colours for you, but please note that as with buying polish online there will always be the variation between monitors and devices (etc).
The swatches for the Black Friday Bundle shades were done with a Canon DSLR EOS 70D (100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens) in diffused mid-afternoon light. These individual listings show 1, 2 and 3 coats (topped with Seche Vite) over a clear swatch wheel. The Bundle swatches are 3 coats over a tinted swatch board.

Application Guide

Apply quality base coat of choice (or pva glue/removable glitter base coat if you’re using a glitter). Make sure you apply the polish in thin, even coats across the nail allowing each layer to dry properly before applying the next. Remember to wrap the free edge (or tip) of the nail to encourage a reduction of shrinkage and longer wear without chipping.
Some of our sheer polishes are best suited for layering over a base colour – however most will be opaque in 2-3 coats. Once you have completed your application, seal with a quality glossy top coat for that water-smooth shine. We enjoy using Cirque Liquid Laminate, HK Girl or Seche Vite.
