About Us
Welcome to Lady's Lacquers! Home for that outta this world femme fantasy! Of course we have masculine polish, for our Laura Croft girlies, and everything in between for everyone in between! We are a Vegan/Cruelty Free/21-Free hand-mixed indie polish brand. Started solo by Lady Glycerine based out of Los Angeles, California! (Polish is not just for women <3 wear what excites you and makes you comfy in your skin! Let us help show you off!)
Who is Lady? I am! I am a trans drag performer in Los Angeles, California. I discovered drag at the beginning of my journey exploring my womanhood as a trans woman. I had not socially or medically transitioned yet, but it became a home for me. Thus, Lady Glycerine was born! Performing and going to see shows all became a celebration of who I am, where I am at in my journey, my ups and downs... It was a vessel for me to be who I am as loud as possible. Having grown up in small town Pennsylvania, I needed just that. I had a hip injury during a performance, and needed to hold off on dancing till after I recovered from surgery.
During this time I rediscovered my love for nail polish and painting my nails. Something I stopped doing years ago in High School from bullying (Unfortunately from other queer people in my school.) I fell so deep in love with nail polish and then had the most dangerous thing happen to me:
I discovered indie polish brands and hobby polish making.
I immediately lost too much money and found a whole new outlet for my self expression and creativity.
I previously was planning to go to Cosmo school for hair, and now have added nails to that list. I am currently working towards my certificate in Cosmetology.
That's why I made this brand. I love mixing nail polishes that are striking enough to be caught sparkling under stage lights, glowing in a dark bar, or help you keep track of where your hand is in a pitch black room ;) I want people to be able to express themselves from the top of their head to the tips of their fingers... and we're the tips of the fingers! From glowing polish to thermal to magnetics to a basic crème, we want to help you show the world exactly the diva within <3
