Review/Swatch Inquiries

Reviewing Policies 

I am open to reviewing newer and older brands (including indies and mainstream brands) alike on this blog. Not all products I accept must have a relation with nail polish or nail care in some form or fashion. I love to do nailart, so I can turn any post into nails!  I reserve the right to decline review opportunities based on but not limited to: availability, scheduling conflicts, product quality, past experiences, etc.

Receipt of a product does not guarantee a positive review.  The primary objective is to always provide my readers with an honest and unbiased opinion of the products being received. Any negative aspects found will first be reported to the maker before the review goes live. There is always an opportunity to try and rectify the issues encountered. 

Photos

All photos must retain their original watermarks. If you wish to receive non-watermarked photos, please contact me for pricing information. Photos for products received can be used on social media and shop websites so long as a link back is provided to this blog.

When requesting a review you will be receiving 2 photos; a full mani holdin the bottle and a macro shot of the polish being worn. Additional photos (such as bottle shots) can be requested, but it must be done so before receiving the package.  Specific hand poses and color usage should be discussed ahead of time.

All photos taken for this blog are done indoors inside using a 13w Ottlite. If you require outdoor photos using natural lighting please let me know ahead of time.

Turnaround Time

My turnaround time is currently one to two weeks starting the day after the package has been received. This is subject to change in the future as certain seasons are busier than others. Please make sure to let me know when packages are being sent otherwise you may be subjected to a longer turn-around. All photos will be sent to the maker at least one day before the review is published.

There is always a window that I may be able to schedule a release on short notice, but it is not guaranteed.

Mini or sample bottles are being accepted at this time.  Please be aware the sizing does limit the pose availability in photos.
