HARE polish

hi all!

some of you may know me as the creator of HARE polish. i used to post updates here on this ol’ blog but i have been working so hard in various departments of my life that i haven’t been painting my nails regularly… therefore not posting here! 

for all future HARE polish updates, please see HARE polish’s facebook page at the following link: 

https://www.facebook.com/harepolish

i will also be updating via the email list, which you may sign up for at the following link:

i will admit that i have been horrible about sending updates via the email list, but i promise i will be better! 

this blog here is now solely dedicated to photos of my manicures. and that concludes my memo of the day. thank you and goodnight! 

HARE polish update:

hi everyone. i wanted to post an update here because i’ve been getting a lot of questions about the next HARE polish shop restock. 

at this time, i am not sure when i’m going to restock. i’m working on a new method of filling bottles and there is a lot of trial and error involved. also a couple of the glitters i have been using have been discontinued and now i’m scouring the depths of the world to find comparable glitters. long story short, i’ve hit quite a few little bumps in the road and i just need to sit down and figure it out! 

aside from that, i’m busier than ever at my job and home life and i’m just… trying to readjust in all departments of my life. 

i may hold some sporadic small openings in the future, or maybe i will figure it out sooner than anticipated but at this time, the shop is closed indefinitely. 

thanks for understanding. when HARE rebounds, i hope to be back with the halloween 2011 collection and also a new one that is already in the works! 

HARE polish update:

quick update… kaila at TKB emailed me back this morning, she “is hopeful that they will have the bases in about 20 days.” here’s hoping. 

HARE polish update:

welp. it pains me to write this. TKB trading is out of their lacquer base, which is arguably the most important ingredient in the CREEPS halloween 2011 collection. they are “investigating continued availability” which means… i can’t make any halloween lacquers until this is cleared up. please stay tuned for any updates. i do intend to make my halloween collection available at some point, somehow, hopefully. i wanted everyone to have their paws on it for halloween but it looks like that is rather impossible. i will keep you updated. 

HARE polish - the CREEPS 2011

without further adieu, here is  HARE polish’s halloween 2011 collection! 

HARE polish - the monster 
named in honor of the tale of frankenstein, the monster is a murky green polish with black and green glitter. 

HARE polish - dead man’s bones
dead man’s bones is a ghostly grey polish with black and white glitter. (this polish was secretly named after ryan gosling…the CEO of HARE polish may or may not be in luvvvv)

HARE polish - bio-exorcist
bio-exorcist: a ghost that is hired to frighten humans away from other ghosts. (beetlejuice)
bio-exorcist is a plummy purple base with big blue hex glitters and smaller white hex glitters.  

HARE polish - heffalumps
hot! pink polish with fuchsia & blue biiiig hex glitters. 

They’re green they’re blue they’re pink they’re white
They’re round they’re square they’re a terrible sight
They tie themselves in horrible knots
They come in stripes or polka-dots 
Beware Beware Be a very wary bear…

wet n wild - correction tape
new york summer - hot purple

HOLY. this might be my most favorite manicure i’ve ever done! i can not express how awesome the “jelly sandwich” is, and new york summer - hot purple is the best purple jelly polish on the planet. the best shade of purple! i loved seeing the glitters shine through the purple jelly, it was mesmerizing.

HARE polish update:

thank you so much to those of you that were able to place an order yesterday! i love you guys, as always! the orders will be shipping on monday - wednesday of next week.

…please stay tuned for some extra exciting HARE polish news… perhaps tomorrow? :D 

HARE polish update:

hi!

i wanted to let you guys know that i will be restocking the store tonight, september 22nd, 2011 at 8:00 pm, california time with the 4 “core” polishes… a positive, bisbee, archipelago & pegasus. there will be approximately 20 of each color available. 

please note! if you miss this sale, i will definitely be restocking these colors at least one more time in the near future. i know this is short notice - i know! and i’m sorry! because i am doing this mostly independently + i work a full time job… it becomes difficult to time everything out perfectly.

secret time: this sale came out of nowhere because it needs to pay for creating my halloween collection! i’ve been working on this for a couple months now, it’s starting to come together and i hope to have that collection available (+ more bottles of the “core” collection) at the end of this month.

thank you so much for your support! please feel free to email me at HAREpolish@gmail.com if you have any questions and i will get back to you as soon as i can.

HARE polish update:

hey guys! 

i am going to update the store in about ONE HOUR with as many polishes as one resident mixer/shaker and one resident labeler can possibly make. sorry this is such short notice but i just got back from a trip to los angeles and surveyed my inventory. 

BUT. please note - this is going to be a PRE-ORDER as i don’t have all the polishes pre-made this time. so please expect a bit of a delay in shipping time. we’re going to be working like mad scientists over here to get all orders out ASAP though! 

now, this is going to be the last time i stock the store until further notice, as i am working on the fall collection, and i am also about to move! (aghhh!) because i am clearing out my inventory before the move, i am only selling whatever i have ingredients for at this time, which is the following: 

14 a positive
14 pegasus
30 bisbee
30 archipelago

i wish i had more ingredients for both a positive and pegasus on hand, sorry about that :( 

and again - sorry it’s such short notice! thank you all so so so much for your support and interest <3

MAC - toast of the town
