5 Free, Vegan, and Cruelty-Free Nail Lacquer
Our 5-free, vegan, and cruelty-free nail colors are the perfect way to unwind and pamper your appendages without paying big bucks at a nail salon. Our quick dry nail polish formula means you can enjoy a fun and unique manicure from the comfort of your own home. With our product, there is no need to spend the next 3 hours waving your hands in the air while you wait for your nails to dry (and probably denting them anyway!).
Are you not great at staying “in the lines” when painting your nails? Don’t worry! Our medium round brush strikes the perfect balance no matter your nail shape, making it a winner for wide flat brush and round skinny brush lovers alike.
What Does “5-Free” Mean?
Back in the day, when you went shopping for nail lacquer, all options included some pretty scary chemicals. Ingredients like formaldehyde and toluene in nail polish were commonplace, even though these things are very hazardous! Being “5-Free” means our nail polish is free from formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, camphor, toluene, and Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP).
Do I Need a Base and Top Coat With Paragon Polish?
The best way to enjoy Paragon Polish nail colors is in conjunction with a long-lasting base coat and a quick dry top coat. We suggest a base and top coat because base coats protect your natural nail from damage and staining, and a quick-dry top coat works with the polish you just applied to harden and shorten the time it needs to dry thoroughly.
While we do not have a base and top coat we sell, we can recommend several that we believe to be the “best of the best.” For base coats, check out the Orly Bonder Base or the Holo Taco Long Lasting Base, and for top coats, the Holo Taco Glossy Taco is a true winner in our book.
An Indie Polish Brand for Pop Culture Fans
While browsing our products, you may notice that our polish names take inspiration from some of our favorite media. Video games especially inspired the creation of our brand. We have never been good at playing the renegade character in our favorite video games, and our nail polish philosophy is the same. Do good, be good, and defeat the reapers (without chipping a nail)!
More Details
- Stains (Might) Happen: While we never want to see your nails stained, it is wise to note that sometimes staining will happen, especially with super-pigmented shades like blues and greens. Staining will depend on factors such as how porous your nails are and if you used a protective base coat.
- After purchasing your Paragon Polish, give your lacquers at least 24 hours indoors before opening the bottle. Sudden temperature changes can result in changes in color and consistency.
- Paragon Polish is an indie nail brand, meaning our polishes are made entirely by hand using hand-selected and tested ingredients. There are no big labs here! Ever notice that all your favorite drugstore brands have polishes that look almost like clones of one another? It is because many of those brands share a lab with only diminutive changes made from one brand to the next.
