Heirlooms | Nail Polish

Heirlooms is a lovely gold sparkly hue in the People of Color Beauty collection honoring Asian Indian culture. 

Gold is more than just a precious metal in Indian culture–it holds significant religious, cultural, and financial value. The majority of gold used for Indian jewelry is 22 carats, which gives it a distinct darker color. Typically, gold is passed from generation to generation as heirlooms. These heirlooms are extremely sentimental and play different parts in certain family celebrations. For example, for weddings and birthdays, gold is usually given as gifts and mothers typically pass heirloom gold jewelry to the bride. During holidays such as Diwali (the Festival of Lights) gold plays a key role in its story.

People of Color Beauty was founded by Jacqueline Carrington, who growing up never saw images of nail polish reflected on her skin tone or the skin tones of other girls and women she knew, which made her skip nail polish all together. When her 3-year old daughter Monroe started coming home with painted nails after visits with her GiGi, Jacqueline was inspired to make sure that her daughter had an experience very different from her own.

When she started People of Color she knew that the most important commitment she wanted to make was to showcase the many skin tones within brown communities all over the world in both color selection and product marketing.  She wanted to make a nail polish brand that was made to complement the various shades of brown skin and for those skin tones to be represented in all advertising for the products. People of Color® is nail polish for "People of Color and those who live in color”
