Company Background

Hard Candy was founded in by Dineh Mohajer in 1995. She was having difficulty finding nail polish to match her shoes, so she decided to make her own. Hard Candy was born. Dineh created a set of four pastel nail polishes -- sky, sunshine, mint, and violet -- that would become iconic of the brand.

Celebrity Following

The polishes were an instant hit in the trendy Los Angeles boutiques that carried them. When Clueless star, Alicia Silverstone, mentioned her Hard Candy manicure on the David Letterman Show, the brand became an overnight international sensation. The company has since expanded to include a full line of cosmetics for eyes, lips, face, and body; but their nail polish, with trademark matching ring, is still their most famous product.

Retail Partner

In 2009, Hard Candy partnered with Wal-Mart to re-launch the brand with the goal of making top-quality products, previously relegated to the specialty market, available to everyone. Hard Candy's fun, flirty cosmetics are now sold at Wal-Mart stores nationwide for affordable prices.
