Oyster Velvet

$26

While the world is your oyster, it's up to you to find the pearl. This colour is inspired by the smooth iridescent interiors of our favourite aphrodisiac. A warm, iridescent, nude velvet.

This unique polish features particles that come to life with the stroke of a magnet! See below instructions on How To Use.

Each polish is sold with a magnet. Unlike Midnight Velvet and Green Velvet, this colour does not require a base colour.

What does 10-Free mean? It means that we are not using the 10 most harmful chemical ingredients commonly found in other gel polish lines.

This gel polish does not contain:

  • Toluene  You can be exposed to toluene by breathing it in or getting it on your skin, causing skin irritation.  Unfortunately, inhaling high levels of toluene is said to be harmful to your nervous system and can cause light-headedness and nausea.
  • Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP)  Commonly used plasticizer and has been linked to cancer.
  • Formaldehyde  Commonly used chemical to preserve and embalm dead animals and humans. Its vapours are also irritating and can trigger asthma.  Formaldehyde is also a known human carcinogen, a factor directly involved in causing cancer.
  • Formaldehyde Resin – A derivative of Formaldehyde, mainly used in the production of coatings and adhesives.  It is not as toxic as Formaldehyde but can be an allergen.
  • Camphor – This chemical acts as a cover on your nails, depriving them of nutrients and causing yellow staining on your nails.
  • Xylene – Irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. It can cause systemic toxicity by ingestion or inhalation.
  • Triphenyl Phosphate (TPHP) – Chemical used in plastics to improve flexibility and as a flame retardant. A handful of animal studies and in vitro studies have suggested that it could be an endocrine disrupter that affects your hormones.
  • Hema – This chemical is responsible for a lot of allergic reactions in the beauty industry. It may cause a allergic reaction if this chemical is absorbed by the skin.
  • Parabens – Preservatives that have gotten a bad rep for their estrogen-mimicking effects, which past research has suggested may trigger major health concerns like hormonal problems.
  • Ethyl Tosylamide – Plasticizer that helps transform polish from drippy to dry in minutes.  This ingredient has already been barred from personal care products in Europe due to its antibiotic properties and concern over antibiotic resistance.
