I figured out that madamglam was a pretty shady brand only after I had invested in them significantly 😔 … after literally spending almost 7-8000 on their products over a couple of years, one of my shipments went missing and their customer service was so rude and disrespectful. And since then I made a vow to not purchase from them again, their little blurb about being able to return the polishes if you don't like them is also not true in my experience. But after seeing this i am just embarrassed that I own so many of the collections. Absolutely shame on them, I thought they were a NY based brand and I was excited to support. But this is just unacceptable 😒

[@TonjaWatts]

I totally agree!!! Now I’m like do I hide all the products I have from them? I hate having polishes in drawers, but I also don’t want to essentially advertise for them.

[@mommysheena84]

I don’t see how ppl don’t realize that the issue isn’t the idea of the cards, but rather the extreme similarity where they basically copy and pasted. It’s like copying your friend’s English paper but only changing 5 words and some punctuation to make it look just enough different in hopes your teacher doesn’t notice the plagiarism.

[@TonjaWatts]

EXACTLY!!!!

[@DeliasNailStudio]

Yes, 👏🏻 exactly

[@deidrecrawford4208]

You'll have to let us know how this plays out. If possible.

[@mommysheena84]

Why didn’t madam glam offer you the SDS sheet for their gel remover if they are so safe? 🤔 law states their are required to have it available for consumers to have.

[@TonjaWatts]

Deff doing a deep dive! This is all too weird!

[@Lisalovesliberty1]

Madam Glam is super sus! When I asked for sds for a product, they emailed and said sure! Buy the product and we will email you the sds after the fact 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

[@TonjaWatts]

Me and a number of people have asked for sds and they have ignored the requests! Soooo sus!!!! I’m working on a video about how weird it is, but I literally cannot find any info on then other then what is on their website.

[@DeliasNailStudio]

Yes, the idea of playing cards In general is nothing new. Yes, another Nail Tech has come out with nail cards, but as you showed in the video, those cards and Celina‘s cards, don’t look the same they coincidentally have the same idea. In my opinion, the cards from Madame Glam from the pictures that I’ve seen on social media are oddly similar to the ones that Celina produced. I stopped using Madam Glam months before this came out. Only because I’m allergic to Hema and I’ve been asking Madam Glam for months to see a copy of their SDS sheets and they won’t send it to me.

[@TonjaWatts]

That is very interesting about the sds! Especially cuz on their website they claim to be the “healthiest” for your nails. Transparent my butt! lol I’m starting to think a madam glam deep dive is in order.

[@DeliasNailStudio]

Yes, I'm not the only tech who has asked for sds sheets and they give us the run-around.

[@ChaosLord42oh]

Great video, especially for protecting someone’s hard work great videos 🫶🧸🐮

[@unboundbytiffany]

Just a side note, neither of these brands were first with this product idea. But thats a whole different thing, the issue she was claiming here was that it was a copy, in style and whatnot. So bigger thing/question, madam glam also released a nail card set with a magical tarot theme even more so into that theme than celinas also a year ago. Right around same time, idk who was first? Idk, but who also can own rights to this when theres tons of other brands selling nail cards that are also trademarked etc. And also, how different can a taror style nail card get? But because madam glam stopped selling their cards as they do without a lot of their collection products monthly, do they give their right to bring them back? So curious. Also, im sure theyre waiting to have their lawyers check it all thoroughly and who has any legal right may not matter though, its their PR thats got their work cut out for them now hahaha. Alot of recon for celina ryden fans to get them back, if any were even madam glam customers as she never even promoted them, so the percentage might be smaller than it seems. Im not taking either side or anything similar, i just have so many questions about all this "tea". Hmmmm. Lol. Fascinated to see how this pans out, if at all? I mean why hasnt celina just had a lawyer send a pretty serious letter already? Hmm. Edit: i could have sworn the manicure roulette ones were either released or promoted by madam glam from what i saw, so mow im extremely confused but even more intrigued.

[@TonjaWatts]

I feel you! I also have so many questions.

[@unboundbytiffany]

Also, what response can madam glam give that would appease people harrassing them yet not lose their legal rights? Its a tough one for both sides, it needs to be left betwen lawyers IMO. Vs. Setting a mob of 'fans'/followers onto this company.

[@unboundbytiffany]

Id love to do a "nail addicts "tea" sit, chit and chat with ya about this (on my actual channel, this is my personal channel not my nail channel, but i feel like we could have a fun and fascinating discussion!) Haha. Random sorry, love how you research and explain and share the info etc. Def. Reminds me of myself, i feel like we woud be friends, as creepy as that sounded! Hahhaah sorry about. That. :P

[@TonjaWatts]

Hahaha not creepy at all I totally understand!! In my head Carrie Dayton is my best friend hahahahahah! that could be really fun!! Shoot me a DM on IG if you want and we can figure out details! ☺️

[@unboundbytiffany]

@TonjaWatts that could super fun! I'll absolutely do so, it'll likely be after this holiday craziness though, so don't think I forgot about ya in 2 weeks ❤️ :😀

The real issue is Celina being partners with Light Elegance. Celina made a big deal about nail techs bullying other nail techs, yet Lexy from LE screen shot a former employees husband and gossiped about them to the world, including the wife of the husband she screen shot. Anytime you bring up the topic, LE and Celina block you. If you want the screen shots of said Lexy calling someone’s husband a loser, please reach out to me. I’ll gladly send it over to you. LE needs to send out a public apology to this woman and her family for the embarrassment and disgraceful behaviors. Celina has bigger issues than feeling ripped of by Madam Glam. She wasn’t the first person to make cards like this. Nor is Madam Glams card completely identical.

[@mommysheena84]

First off, what happened between Lexi and Darcy’s husband has nothing to do with Celina. Celina had no part in that. Second, if you are going to tell me that not once ever in your life, have you talked about somebody else behind their back, you’re a downright liar. I don’t understand why you guys want to bring up something that has nothing to do with a brand called Moonflair by Celina Ryden. You want to keep going after light elegance, that’s fine. Just know that there are other brand ambassadors out there and I don’t see any of you going so hard after them as you are after Celina. You guys have chosen Celina as some sort of martyr on behalf of Light Elegance. Darcy made that public, light elegance publicly apologized to Darcy on that same public post. Darcy deleted it. Then they re-commented again with the apology. And here you are still going after Celina, when that entire thing has nothing to do with her. Because you have this issue with light elegance and you think that Celina should leave the company simply because she doesn’t tolerate bullying and then here you are bullying her for not tolerating you trolls bullying her? Y’all need to grow up. Stop trying to insert yourself into a situation that does not involve you. And stop trying to push Celina into a situation that does not involve her. Move on. I hope she blocks every single one of you that keeps trying to bring up a situation that has nothing to do with her. Why don’t you find another brand ambassador to attack? Or is your hard on only for Celina?

[@TonjaWatts]

I’m not a fan of LE for a number of reasons. But that has nothing to do with Celina. And I’m not sure how her being an LE ambassador has anything to do with any of what you mentioned. I would block people too if they continually tried to involve me in drama I’m not apart of. People have different reasons for not supporting brands and those are all up to the individual. And I don’t personally judge people who use brands I choose to not use.

[@bethanybenigno7907]

What happened between two grown adults has nothing to do with Celina. Take it up with the ppl who were involved, not Celina

[@lisadiane87]

Celina wasnt first with this idea. Look at manicure roulette by dr prints which is a uk nail techs own brand.

[@TonjaWatts]

lol did you even watch the video? I literally said this isn’t a new concept and I mention them.

[@lisadiane87]

😂 no need to be rude, I missed the end of the video. I was simply saying she wasn't first, doesn't make it ok for her work to be replicated either
