Frequently Asked Questions

All our nail polish, curable lacquer, nail care and remover products are designed, formulated and made in Australia.

We are often referred to as an ‘indie’ brand. And while we are an independently-owned family business, we do not make our nail polish in house. We hand-selected the perfect manufacturer to achieve the premium quality we are known for.

Nail art brushes and tools are made in China. Glass Nail File and Manicure Stick are made in The Czech Republic.

All labels, packaging and printing for Picture Polish products are made and printed in Australia supporting local business.

Our nail polish product boxes are made in Australia from 25% recycled cardboard. Recycle our product boxes or use them as the perfect storage solution for your polish.

Unfortunately we need to discontinue our curable lacquer product because as a small family business we lack the resources to create a TPO free formula.

There’s a lot of misinformation online regarding the reasons behind TPO’s ban in the EU. Please take a moment to watch a video by Michelle, also known as Lab Muffin Beauty Science, a leading chemist from Australia. She explains TPO, its functioning on nails, and the EU ban: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=3179972705501459

It’s important to note that whether a gel nail polish contains TPO or is TPO-free, the damage caused during removal is significantly greater. This is why curable lacquer is a better choice for your nails overall.
