Lacquer Drop

Lacquer Drop is a seasonal collaboration between Canadian indie polish makers. Each drop has a theme, and each participating brand creates one shade as their take on it. Past drops have included Spring Thaw, Northern Fall, Winter Chill, and a Pride collection.

Every Lacquer Drop shade is limited edition. Shades are made to order during a short pre-order window, and once that window closes they are not made again. Most of what you see on this page is from past drops and is likely sold out, which is how the collab is designed to work.

How to catch the next drop

Drops open for pre-order for roughly a week at a time, a few times a year. The best way to hear about one before it opens is to join the Lacquer Drop Lounge Facebook group, where makers post sneak peeks of their shades in the weeks beforehand.

Participating makers

Recent drops have included Prairie Crocus Polish, Clionadh Cosmetics, Grackle Lacquer, Paint it Pretty Polish, ANLAC, Inspired Sense, Bedford and Grove, and Unity Colour Creations. Each drop also raises money for a charity chosen by the participating brands.
