Gem of the Huron 🌊

Gem of the Huron is a sparkling mix of blue, teal, green, and holographic glitter inspired by the brilliant waters surrounding Drummond Island. Packed with different sizes of glitter, this shade flashes from deep lake blue to bright emerald and aqua as it catches the light, like looking down into clear Great Lakes water on a sunny day.

  • Clear base with blue, teal, green, and holographic glitters

  • Long-lasting and chip-resistant for everyday wear

  • 100% vegan, cruelty-free, and toxin-free

  • Handmade with care in Traverse City, Michigan

Fun Fact: Drummond Island sits at the eastern tip of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula in northern Lake Huron and has long been nicknamed the “Gem of the Huron.” Surrounded by brilliant blue-green water, forests, rocky shoreline, and dozens of nearby islands, it’s known for boating, fishing, paddling, trails, and some seriously beautiful Great Lakes scenery. You even have to take a car ferry from DeTour Village to get there, making a trip to Drummond feel like a little island adventure before you’ve even arrived. Find our polishes in the Islander Shoppe on Drummond Island!

Here in Traverse City, advocate group FLOW (For Love of Water), works to protect the Great Lakes through water law, policy, education, and the idea that these waters are a shared public resource that should remain healthy, public, and protected for generations to come. We donate $2 for every bottle of Gem of the Huron, Ontario Forever, Lake Michigan, Erie-sistible, or Superior State of Mind that sells in 2026. That means if you pick up the whole limited time collection, we will donate $10!

“I know it’s “just” nail polish, but I LOVE Northern Nail Polish and am so grateful to have discovered this brand!! The colors are vibrant and long-lasting, the formula is smooth and easy to apply, and even the brush is the perfect size for precise application. But most importantly, the company's commitment to using natural and sustainable ingredients sets it apart from all other nail polishes on the market. I will never go back to using anything else! I highly recommend KC’s polishes to anyone who is looking for a toxin-free and vegan option.”

~ Bridget J. from Glen Arbor, Michigan
