Our Story

Growing up, founder Jacqueline Carrington, never saw images of nail polish colors reflected on brown skin tones in most marketing and advertising, which made her skip nail polish all together growing up. It wasn’t until her 3-year old daughter Monroe, at the time, started coming back from visits with her GiGi (grandma) with her nails painted, that Jacqueline had a newfound interest...in May 2019, People of Color was born.
