Omg! We're so happy to see Chun-Li aka Nicki Minaj wearing About Last Night at the 2018 BET Awards! We've watched the performance 100 times now, we can't get enough.

NCLA Poland hosted the CUTEST press and influencer event for the NCLA x Marzena Kanclerska collection launch!
Champagne topped with cotton candy? What better way to start a launch party of our super cute four-piece collection with mega boss-babe Marzena Kanclerska.
From nail bars to cupcakes, we had THE most fun presenting our Summer In The City collection. We got to hear Marzena's inspiration behind the colors, and guests got to try out the collection first hand!
The collection features four essential pinks that cover your essentials pastels to your brightest brights. The nail lacquers are of course all vegan, cruelty-free, and 7-Free!
So happy to see one of our class shades, As If! featured in this month's Southern Living. We love a good spill shot. <3

Loves it.
We all know that going to Coachella is a ritual Angelenos love participating in each year, and what you wear all three days is just as important as the line up. Whatever weekend you're attending, be sure your nails are festival-ready with our round-up of the 10 best nail trends.
NEONS + NEUTRALS
Be anything but basic by pairing your favorite neutral polish with an array of neons in a half moon pattern at the base of your cuticle. We’re crazy for this set done by @nailmekrikri using our cruelty-free and vegan gel formula in 8th + Spring.
POP OF COLOR
Not in the mood to overthink the whole nail thing? Choose a bright pop of color that matches your weekend mood *and* the festival lights. Pastel sky blue Power Couple in Let’s Stay Forever always makes a statement - even better it’s 25% off this month under Staff Picks.
ROSE QUARTZ
Keep your chakras aligned by rocking rose quartz on your fingertips. Our pastel pink Power Couple in Not So Sweet makes the perfect base.
PASTELS
Nostalgia has been trending hardcore lately and this graphic pastel mani is no exception. Pair bold lines and geometric shapes to capture the true 90s aesthetic just like @fingernails.are.pretty did using an array of Gelous shades!
MAJOR SPARKLE
Let’s be honest - we pretty much only chose this color because it’s 100% glitter and the name is Let’s Go Party #SorryNotSorry
HINT OF SPARKLE
If major sparkle isn’t your jam, then try our latest shimmery gel shade in Volume XII! It looks amazing alone, but also pairs well with others - just like you (or a classic french fade).
MATTE NUDES
If you’re not familiar, Coachella is literally in the middle of the desert and is *major* color inspo for your festival mani if you love a good nude. Plot twist - top it off with our new, vegan matte top coat for a little edge.
BEYONCÉ NAIL WRAPS
Also a no-brainer - mix ‘n matching our NCLA for Beyoncé nail wraps since the queen is *finally* performing both weekends.
COACHELLA
Our self-proclaimed “Coachella” nail wraps (AKA What Filter Should I Use?) have been a fan favorite since they launched a few years ago - and were even worn by supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio at the festival! They pair well with your favorite polish shade, or get crazy by rocking a different design on each nail.
HOLOS
Not to brag, but we’ve perfected our vegan holographic formula to give you the most eye-catching mani in every lighting...and under those festival lights, our holos will shine even brighter. For a mani that’s *almost* as trippy as Coachella weekend, we recommend Teal The End.
Shop these looks now or get your festival fix with our Coachella shop here!

Team NCLA has you covered with our Staff Picks for this season. Whether it's a favorite color, or the must-have treatment, we've lined up our favorites.
Elin, CEO
Our most coveted treatment, NCLA's So Rich, is the one NCLA product I have to have every day. I keep it in my purse everywhere I go. It's infused with Vitamin E and oils to keep my nails hydrated. Of all the scents, Rose Petal is my favorite!
Rory, Creative Director
I’m obsessed with Neon Angel Baby because we’ve been waiting so long for 7-Free neons and now we finally have them!
Anh-Thu, Director of Operations
Anyone that knows me knows I'm always on the go and always running around. Mani emergencies occasionally occur, and having our 5-piece tool kits in my bag has been a life saver.
Sophie, Operations Assistant
How could I not love these nail wraps? They match my Vans!
Allie, Social Media Manager
I normally gravitate towards a pink or nude nail, but when I want something a little brighter, I love to use our pastel blue shade, Let’s Stay Forever! It has just the right amount of pop — plus it’s available in gel and lacquer!”

Meet the pups in charge at NCLA HQ! Their four paws mean they are extra efficient at XL, and can pack orders super quick. They love the fact that we are cruelty free and vegan, too! These pups get rewarded in treats and occasional paw-dicures.
Betty June Rockmore
Betty is Rory's 9-year old Shih-Tzu. She's had a little work done after moving to LA, so she looks a little younger than she is. She never misses a hair appointment, loves cheetah print, and refuses to work.
Choco
Choco is Elin's 1-year old Chocolate Lab. She still isn't over the fact that her name is Choco and she can't eat chocolate, but loves to going to work every day!
Nala
Nala is Anh-Thu's 4 month old Yellow Lab. She's addicted to puppycinos, can fall asleep anywhere, and loves the occasional paw-dicure.
Rose
Rose is Alex's rescue chihuahua mix. She howls on command, and not on command. Rose lives in a house of 5 dogs but is *paw-sitive* she's the favorite.
Hachi
Hachi is Sophie's chihuahua-terrier mix. Hachi speaks Japanese just like Sophie!
Peaches and Simba
Peaches and Simba are Allie's two rescue cats. They are honorary puppies, and still think they have people fooled into thinking they are pups.
We love our furry friends! They are a huge part of our lives, and everyday is national puppy day in our eyes.
