There is a new indie on the block by the name of Rogue Lacquer.  The owner, Rachel is local to me and I was able to shop her collection before it went on sale!  And as an added bonus, she included an extra set for me to giveaway to a lucky winner!  Rachel previously created polish for Ever After and decided to venture out on her own after moving across the country away from head quarters.  She is debuting her own brand with a steam punk inspired collection called Spring Punk!  Best part is that she is making polish and wax!
