Who are we?
Back in June 2013 I (Kat) began testing out a few theories, one of them being whether I could make my own bath bombs. because surely it couldn't be that difficult? Turned out that not only could I make them I fell in love with the whole process! The rest as they say the is history, and Soap-Dodger was born!
What started as a hobby, quickly progressed into a small but thoroughly enjoyable business. The business grew substantially and we expanded from just bath and body products into the world of Nail Polish by launching Ard As Nails on 7th August 2015. Since then the business continues to grow thanks to a loyal fan base and what we hope is a business that caters to our customers.

Beautiful polish 🖤 pigment dense, lovely glossy finish, goes on really well. Order packed carefully and arrived quickly. Immense range of colours available; I'm more a 'dark and mysterious nails' kind of girl, but if you love colour, there will be at least one you love 🌈✨

Super speedy delivery. Products are always gorgeous and top tier. Customer Service is brilliant, they always go out of their way to be helpful, even if an issue is not down to them. I have purchased lots of times from here and would highly recommend.

Vegan & Cruelty Free
​
As the business progressed I continued to listen to Customers and what they wanted. It seems that people are a lot more conscious of what ingredients are in the products they are using and many people wanted to know if things were cruelty free. Legislation banned animal testing some time ago but we worked on tweaking our recipes until we found a solution that meant we were not using ANY animal derived ingredients. Once we had managed to do that we set about getting ourselves registered with PETA and we now proudly ensure that we use Vegan & Vegetarian ingredients only. This means that all of our products are cruelty free!
