Other: Garden Path recommends that all nail polishes are stored in a cool, dark place (they personally use Helmers from IKEA). Temperature changes and exposure to certain types of natural and artificial light can affect the appearance of all nail polishes over time.

Application Guide

Apply your favourite base coat, and apply 2-3 thin coats of polish, be sure to allow adequate dry time in between each coat (5 minutes minimum). Then top off with your favourite glossy or matte top coat for long lasting wear time.
Once you have completed your application, seal with a quality glossy top coat for that water-smooth shine. We enjoy using Cirque Looking Glass Top Coat, Glisten & Glow or Seche Vite.

For lacquers that are heavy with shimmer or glitter, a good bottle roll between both hands is recommended prior to use. If a particular lacquer is too thick for your preference, please feel free to add several drops of quality thinner (but NEVER acetone).

About Garden Path Lacquers

Garden Path Lacquers is an independent line of small-batch, hand-made nail polishes lovingly and thoughtfully produced by Karen in Hubbard, Ohio. At Garden Path Lacquers we encourage you to embrace your individuality and curiosity by Straying from the Path. Join us as we explore personal expression through nail colour!

All Garden Path Lacquers are vegan-friendly, big five chemical free, and cruelty free. Due to the artisan nature of Garden Path Lacquers, please understand that slight variations may occur from batch to batch. Individual perceptions of color may also vary slightly due to monitor settings, skin tone, lighting, etc.

Each lacquer in the Garden is lovingly mixed and poured in a facility that is child, dog, and cat friendly (but they’re not allowed in the laboratory). Garden Path Lacquers is rebranded from Lollipop Posse Lacquer.
