Comments that do not adhere to our comment policy may be removed. Discussion and debate are highly encouraged but we expect community members to participate respectfully. Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!
Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).
We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Clionadh, Terra Moons and Natasha Denona! (tho the latter has been a little problematic lately. So disappointing!)
In no particular order: Menagerie Cosmetics, Give Me Glow Cosmetics and Melt Cosmetics…Sydney Grace, too!
Terra Moons, Juvia’s Place and Dose of Colors
Terra Moons, Dandy Lions, Devinah
Natasha Denona (though not sure if still indie – perhaps they are considered boutique, now) Sydney Grace, Dose of Colors, Karla Cosmetics
Give Me Glow
Shroud
Devinah
Sydney Grace, Menagerie Cosmetics, and Sugarpill! But, I do also want to buy from Melt, Terra Moons and Kaleidos, too!
Shine by SD, Terra Moons, Sydney Grace (very hard to just pick three though)!
Sydney Grace, Kaleidos, and Natasha Denona. Honorable mention for Unearthly Cosmetics.
Not sure if these still qualify as “indie” but
Ilia , rms beauty, and Inika..
My top three indie brands would be: Sydney Grace, JD Glow and Terra Moons.
