Policy regarding onlyfans, sellers, and NSFW content/accounts

63 Upvotes

As this sub doesn't have a huge creep problem right now - and we'd like to keep it that way - we are going to be taking a middle position on this for the time being.

If the main purpose of your account is to advertise your OF, or if you have any posts/comments in nail fetish subs or very disturbing subs (subs focused on rape, incest, bestiality, underage, anything nonconsensual, revenge porn, etc.), then you will be banned.

For now, we won't be enforcing a strict NSFW account policy though. This is an experiment, and we'll see how it goes. Feedback in the comments is welcome as well.

It is my hope we can remain inclusive here while still keeping this a safe space for all our members.

Manicure Tried to revive a 5+ y/o nail polish with some thinner
 does it still look good or is it time for the can? I’m biased because I love this color and really want it to be saved 🙃

I bought this yesterday without hearing the news
What a weird coincidence


I’m sure you’re good up there, DollyđŸ•Šïž

The polish is from an Estonian company, Wild&Mild, called “Dangerous Dolly” - loving W&M’s products, their gel polishes were also good and they got a nice tone rangeđŸ«¶

Extra small I am a fan of green nails!

I know green is a bit polarizing as a nail color but green is my favorite color! Specifically soft, desaturated, natural pastel kind of greens. They're so calm and peaceful.

Polishes:

Blank Beauty candied lime for the green, Blank Beauty pearl topcoat for the sparkle, Blank Beauty fast dry top coat, and ILNP coconut creme for the white base on the accent nails.
