“I am extremely excited for this new venture,” said Hannelius. “From creating YouTube nail art tutorials at 12, to creating Make Me Nails at 16 and now launching G Polish in my 20s, my beauty practices continue to evolve and the businesses I create reflect that. With G Polish, it was so important for me to produce something in California without toxic chemicals.”

G Polish works with United States-based vendors who adhere to cruelty-free and vegan operating standards. While most polish brands are 5- or 7-free, G Polish is 10-free, which means it contains none of the top ten toxins found in most lacquers. G Polish is safe for children and expecting women and strives to provide clients with safe, long-lasting polish that is produced as naturally as possible.

Hannelius created two collections. The California collection, inspired by the city of stars, comes complete with five colors, including dreamy pastels and paparazzi-worthy brights. While the Neon collection isn’t for the faint of heart, the three traffic-stopping shades are just as fun as they are fashionable.
