Renowned polymer chemist Doug Schoon finally released the definitive data settling the lamp debate, proving that wattage is a complete marketing lie among other things.
But instead of thanking him for unpaid research, educators and influencers are attacking his motives.
I’m breaking down the raw data, and questioning CND's wild new lamp claims.
Can a $20 Amazon lamp actually hold a candle to proper engineering, or are people just playing Russian roulette with their immune system? 🧪📊

I honestly thought I was done with summer testing. 🛑👀

After my painfully itchy reaction trying out Mizshe, I promised my skin we were sticking strictly to high-end professional lines for the rest of the season to avoid any flare-ups. So when I was contacted by Sundara Nails, I had to see if this brand could actually meet my standards.

Also doing some super cute "hypoallergenic" ocean nails 🧪🌊

I honestly thought I was done with this brand. 🛑👀

After my absolutely brutal review of their AI Lamp, I didn’t think O'Nail would ever want to speak to me again. But instead of getting defensive, they reached out and asked me to test their new AI E-File.

I’m breaking down the raw performance, testing the zero-vibration claims, and sharing a few major tips on how I steady my non-dominant hand during a fill.

Can this AI nail drill hold a candle to my $400 Kupa Mani Pro Next?

The summer try-on rules are officially broken. ☀️🧪👇

I said I wasn’t going to test any more budget brands until the weather cooled down, but a bestie sent over the Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for Mizshe from Amazon and I had to look into it.

Can it actually dethrone Rarjsm as the king of Amazon gels? 👑🚩

Nail Narrative

The UV/LED lamp debate has officially taken over the nail industry, but a lot of creators are pushing dangerous myths under the guise of looking out for your wallet.

In my latest video dropping tomorrow, we are breaking down the real science of polymer curing. We’re talking about why wattage is purely a marketing gimmick, what actually matters in nail lamps and the marketing lies we are sold 🚩

I’m also addressing the online discourse around Doug Schoon, the PLA Costco launch, and why I walked away from the AI lamp collaboration. No gatekeeping, no brand loyalty, just facts. 🔬💅

Set your reminders! Video goes live tomorrow, May 23rd, at 12:00 PM EST. See you in the comments!

They call it "user error"
Poison control calls it a pattern.
I had to drop one more video before going on vacation because this situation is crazy. Unfortunately, this is not clickbait. See you all today at noon EST.

I know, I’m a day late! 🫣🐣

Happy belated Easter besties! I was busy enjoying the holiday weekend with my family, so thank you for the patience. But the wait is over, and today’s video is a much needed convo. How cheap gels have created unrealistic retention standards and why its now falling apart.

We’ve all seen the drama: brands changing formulas, nail techs losing their minds over retention, and the constant search for the next "miracle" HEMA-free product. But the truth: The product doesn’t suck... your prep does. 🚩🛑

I’m sharing the "treadmill incident" where my actual nail tore off, but the gel didn't budge, to prove that HEMA-free retention is 100% possible if you stop using monomers as a crutch. 🧪✨

Dropping TODAY (4/6) at 5:00 PM EST! ⏰👇
