Hi there, my darlings! Living in the US, you don't quite realize just how many everyday things you take for granted. Hand lotion, good pizza, roll-on deodorants (don't even let me get started on that)...and yes, indie polishes and handmade products! Yes, there are a few brands here in India that make handmade bath and body but they are few and far between. As for indie polish...virtually non-existent. It's so sad! So, when I landed up here, I knew I HAD to curate a list of all the indies that shipped globally, not only for my own sanity but for the sake of all my international ladies who are looking for a little something more special than what's available in the local pharmacy/drugstore/supermarket. Worry not, my international darlings! All the brands have got you covered! Enjoy! 😊💖

Not just pretty polishes, Cynthia has recently expanded to create a line of handmade soaps. I have known her since the wee dawn of ColorSutraa and I have had the pleasure of running a couple of fun little giveaways with her!

I discovered Baroness X last year when I saw rave reviews of her Matte Balm all over social media. So, I had to go get one for myself and boy! Does it work! Read my rave review
HERE. I brought that balm with me all the way over here and I STILL have a lot of it left. But, I'm really glad she ships internationally because I'm definitely going to need back-ups!

What can I say about Enchanted Polish without hyperventilating a little?? Let's just say I'm a true fan-girl! Over the years, the most amazing thing happened--Chelsea took a special interest in my little blog, even when I was a total newb. She never failed to answer emails, join my giveaways when she could or follow what I was up to, so much so that my recent email to her was answered with warmth and queries of my well-being after the move. I have even had the immense pleasure of working with her
HERE--as for her polishes, they will always hold a special place in my heart and my stash!

Ah...Jill! Affectionately dubbed Beanses, she was my very first polish BFF. We bonded over her HK Girl Topcoat, which will forever be my go-to topcoat, and became so much more than just polish friends. When she started making nail polishes, I couldn't have been prouder! Now this is a hard one to pick a favorite collection because I love her and her brand so much but
HERE is top candidate.
