Each month, Her Outlette highlights a business on a mission to make an impact while also making money. Last month, we featured founder and owner of the Detroit based, Pet Concierge. Check out the second installment of our “Bout’ Her Business” series below!

There’s nothing like having a freshly polished and manicured set of nails. The increasing popularity of nail designs has created a variety of polishes to choose from. The global nail polish market is expected to reach over $15 billion by 2024. Yet, with all this variety many polishes aren’t 100 percent vegan. Naturally, when we hear vegan we immediately think food, but this can include beauty products too! Cue Dr. Alyanna Brown, licensed pharmacist, and founder of Crown Nail Lacquer. Crown Nail Lacquer is “5-free”, meaning it doesn’t contain formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, camphor, or DBP; doesn’t test on animals, and is made without fragrances or parabens.

Dr. Brown founded Crown Nail Lacquer in 2018 with the desire to make women feel beautiful. Growing up in Maryland, her mother was a hair stylist. A staple of Dr. Brown’s childhood was witnessing her mother’s clients come for their biweekly self care. In fact, a way Dr. Brown relieves stress and finds relaxation is through self care and pampering, particularly by doing her nails. One day, she had a patient who suffered from a nail injury at a salon and was unable to use polish for six weeks due to the chemicals found in most polishes and nail treatments. That’s when a light bulb went off and Crown Nail Lacquer was born! Using her hobby and pharmaceutical background, Dr. Brown created a business with the goal of offering products that aren’t harmful and make all women feel beautiful.

Crown Nail Lacquer encourages all women to live life boldly and enhance their inner enchantress.
