Nubar is the company Mentality is blaming this all on, saying that base caused the issues. We all think he was making his own base.

The reigning theory right now is that was trying to make own base but doesn’t want to admit it since it went so wrong. There was a chemist making informative comments Facebook page (which have now been deleted) and he said they shouldn’t need to degassing anything unless they their own base.

Because he is insane. He sees himself as some sort of nail polish genius. I keep picturing him hunched over his bathtub in his underwear stirring the polish like he’s Walter White cooking meth.

Crowstoes, Colors by Llarowe, Ellagee, Emerald and Ash, Enchanted, Manglaze, Parrot Polish to name a few. There are so many that are ethical and safe!

Yeah, I really don't understand why he wouldn't be using chemicals and products that have already been extensively tested. It's not like nail polish is a new.

ILNP, Glam Polish, KBShimmer, A England

Philly Loves Lacquer, Ellagee, Different Dimension, Colors by Llarowe, Fair Maiden polish, Sweetheart polish, Love Angeline, Ruby White Tips, Dollish polish, the list goes on...

YES! I LOVE MAKEUP BLOGGER WORLD SCANDALS!!! I still delight in the Doe Deere controversy.
I mean, but also it really sucks how jacked up people's nails got from this. Like, I would be devastated. My nails are my #1 vanity.

As a blogger in the indie nail community, the saddest thing I’m seeing out of this is the other indie polish makers suffer. There are some really amazing, very reputable indie polish makers who make beautiful products and truly care about the customers. It’s sad to see people get scared off from indie polish…

There are hundreds of makers out there who haven’t fucked their customers over and make beautiful safe products.

Zoya 4lyfe.

No eh.

Yes it is! So many great brands! Mentality is a douche canoe! The other brands are nothing like him!!

Neither does the polish made by Digital Nails. Just because one indie maker is a fuckwat doesn’t mean they all are. I have had absolutely amazing experiences with products from indie makers, and now I buy almost exclusively from them. The men and women who produce them put so much time and effort into making sure…

I’m the one who was trying to be supportive over at Betty’s Beauty Bombs. I was going off of YEARS of good customer service and a reputation as trustworthy indie polish. I just couldn’t believe that overnight a company would turn in to a crazy madhouse!! I ended up renouncing my support because OH MY GAWD. I couldn’t…

They clearly took customer service lessons from Lime Crime.

So, Danny is like the Mother Theresa of nail polish!

“I am where Mentality has always come from. I am Mentality. I am an athlete. I am a scholar. I am a musician. I am an artist and a maker. I am also a fighter.”

YES! And it is amazing!!!

“I have to make nail polish, it is my life’s work.” “I have to make nail polish. It is being demanded of me.”
