No H8 Eradicate Bullying In The Nail Polish Community


Bullying is not funny. It is not cool. It is not right. And more importantly, it is not okay.

Most of us are, thankfully, residents of countries that support tolerance and many of our families have settled in these places simply for that reason. Generations later, it is our responsibility to perpetuate that message of tolerance across our new social platforms, including the internet.

As members of the nail polish blogging community, we all share a love of beauty, color, and lacquer. Other than that, we are remarkably different: from our race to our religion to our hair color...even to our polish application techniques. To marginalize anyone because of those differences is completely unacceptable and today I take a stand against that. I refuse to allow other people's view of "normal" dictate how I behave, believe, and blog.

In solidarity with a multitude of bloggers linked below, my purple manicure represents my proud commitment to the No H8 movement. Today, November 8, I dedicate my post to ending bullying of any kind and to encouraging diversity and imperfection among our colorful community.
My purple mani submission is an Illamasqua that I did long ago, I think it might be Poke. 


I'm new to the nail polish blogging community but I've been following blogs and forums for a while now.  I've seen bloggers grow and indies explode and some fade away, but never have I've seen bullying like I have lately.   I'm glad it's been recognized and the community has done something to stand up to it.  Don't be a victim of bullying and most importantly, never bully anyone else - we are all here for the same reason and that's for the love of nail polish.
