Lacquer Brands

so one day I went to a fugue and wrote a 2000 word essay on nail polish brands

We got four tiers of nail polish brands: overpriced luxury bullshit, drugstore, boutique, and indie.

Overpriced Luxury Bullshit

Don’t buy these! Just don’t! You’re paying for name, not quality. Chanel charges $32 for an 11 ml creme, the second cheapest polish type there is. That’s ludicrous. Every review I’ve seen of a “high-brand” from a real swatcher has been negative. Fuck ‘em all.

Drugstore

This is every other mainstream brand, whether it’s from CVS, Walmart, or Ulta. Wide range of price and quality. In general, you’ll probably get what you pay for. Sally Hensen Insta-Dry is classic and Acceptably Okay; if you don’t have the patience for a full manicure, just slap some of that on. Look for brands that are 3-free or 5-free--that means that won’t have a few nasty chemicals. Anything over 5 is fake and doesn’t matter.

My preferred drugstore brands:

Zoya: Jellies, glitters, shimmers. Tends to have a very thin formula--leave the cap off for a few minutes to thicken it up.

Orly: Cremes! The absolute best, well-pigmented, buttery smooth cremes. Persistent Memory is my perfect dark red. The bottles are generously sized, they have a nice paddle brush, and I love the big rubberized cap. They’re just really pleasant!

OPI: I only use their matte top coat but I use a lot of it. It’s the best! Get their matte top coat! I’ve seen recs to use their polishes over Essie’s, but I’ve never tried either.

Boutique

Now we’re getting into the Good Shit. There’s a price jump here, but there’s also a huge jump in quality. These are small- to medium-sized online-only businesses with semi-industrial production and ample stock. They’re big enough to ship within a few days. They use a LOT more pigment and glitter than drugstore brands, and have far more variety in finishes.

You might see them on Amazon or Etsy--skip it and go order from their sites instead. Shipping costs the same and you can save up reward points.

Charmed Lacquer: Brand new, recently announced, will open in a week or two. Started by a streamer named Janixa. I’m not familiar, but her followers seem excited enough to check it out.

Cirque Colors: CONTROVERSY! I like Cirque. I have a ton of their polishes. A little pricey, but they have frequent small sales and are high-quality. Best known for the jellies and some really stunning magnetics like Mood Ring and Black Swan (which have since been rampantly duped). So why the controversy?

Mystery bags: idk people get het up about ‘em. I kind of feel like if you gamble on a bunch of polishes you don’t choose, you risk pruglies.

Coronation: This is a purple polish with a red-green shift shimmer pigment called, I shit you not, Unicorn Pee. UP was made unavailable for public sale years ago (the suspicion is that it’s now used in some currency). Cirque keeps finding stashes and re-releasing Coronation. There have been complaints that it’s not the same shade as the original, that it’s over-priced ($18.50 is a LOT for a polish), and the FOMO marketing. It always sells out fast. I have a bottle. It’s okay.

Jaritos: The current teapot tempest. Cirque just put out a Jarito-themed line of jellies that’s FOURTEEN FUCKIN FIFTY a bottle. Their regular jellies are two bucks less because JELLIES ARE CHEAP. They have less pigment than other finishes. Cirque has also been caught editing pics from swatchers. Some of the Jaritos shades are outright dupes of existing Cirque colors--but when Cirque reposted swatcher pics that compared them, they changed things to make them look different. Little shady!

I still got Mxcn Cola

Holo Taco: I don’t go to this school. It seems fine. Owned by a YouTuber with a pretty big following, Simply Nailogical. The brand has devoted followers, but I’ve never been real impressed. I feel like I can get everything they do somewhere else for a buck or two cheaper. Lots of limited-time bundles.

ILNP: MY LOVE! Shimmers, glitters, holos. Their formulas are just fantastic. If you follow lacquer reddits you’ll see a TON of posts featuring Flower Child and Fairy Dust; they aren’t for me but I see why people love them. They’re really good with shimmers--Flicker glows like a candle in a dark window. I also like their flakie toppers and magnetics. You really can’t go wrong with anything from ILNP.

One of the rare lacquer companies that doesn’t do FOMO. They never remove anything from their line-up. New collections get a 10% discount for a week at release, and they have an annual Black Friday sale.

KBShimmer: They’re pretty good! They don’t get as much love as I think they deserve--probably because they aren’t quite as flashy and highly-marketed as other brands. They also aren’t as heavily pigmented/glittered. Still pretty good though! I really love All Fired Up. They have big 15 ml bottles for only $12, no matter what finish. KBShimmer is a great place to start if you’re just dipping your toe beyond drugstore brands. Pick up their polish thinner (suitable for every brand except Orly) and glitter smoothing top coat.

Lights Lacquer: Don’t. They have some nice shades, though they tend to be as subdued as drugstore polishes. I was really disappointed by their cremes--the formula isn’t at all self-leveling. That’s just weird in this day and age. And then I found out that black swatchers refuse to work with them because the owner has been openly racist. Her non-apologies did not improve relations. Skip it.

Mooncat: CONTROVERSY! I have over a dozen Mooncat polishes and do love most of them, but it's getting harder to recommend the brand. They specialize in intense shimmer/glitter/holo/flakie/magnetics--all the fancy stuff. They have a few unique polishes that I haven’t seen duped elsewhere. Their formula can be gloopy, especially their flakies; easily fixed by a few drops of thinner. Why controversy?

they’re fukkin expensive bro. Like $15 a bottle. I do feel that you get what you pay for--it’s good stuff. I’ve never been disappointed by a Mooncat. But part of what you’re paying for is brand aesthetic.

they’re fukkin annoying bro. Their site, marketing, and even customer service emails are all lower-case dramatic gothy stuff. Never “nails,” always “claws.”

Their bottles keep shattering. This has happened occasionally in the past, then become more frequent starting in April. Seems like there was some supply change that thinned the glass. Mooncat was also filling about 14 ml instead of the promised 12 ml. Temperature and air pressure changes during shipping started to cause a lot of bottles to break. One person ended up in urgent care to get her hand stitched. Mooncat has promised to make changes and has been quick to refund/replace broken bottles, but there’s still a lot of ill-will simmering in the community. I think we’re past the tipping point--I’m no longer seeing broken bottle posts, just love for their new Power Puff Girls collab--but if you like something, I would wish list and wait another month. That should be enough time to make sure the bottles are safe and the weather has cooled.

Indies

Every single indie nail polish company is one or two people working out of their basement. That is not a joke. They hand-makes every small batch, fill the bottles, pack, and ship by themselves. That’s in addition to designing and testing polishes, and just living their lives.

That means that if you order from an indie, expect to wait. Most list a turn-around time of up to a month (they usually say 7-21 business days--people read three weeks but it’s a month). That’s padded to give them safety--nearly all will ship within a week, maybe two. But if they get hit with life stuff or a ton of orders, it really can take a while. My longest order took over a month arrive. It was entirely worth it.

Indies tend to have a big focus on fancy finishes. The biggest trend right now is sheer lacquers that are loaded with aurora shimmer. They’re color-shifty and glowy, and a lot of fun. That’s starting to stagnate a bit--every base color/shimmer combination has been done, so a lot of dupes are emerging--but it’s also starting to evolve. I’m seeing more and more shimmers that also have holo, flakes, or reflective glitter. I’m betting we’ll get some thermal shimmers as fall rolls in and temperatures drop.

Indies have some phenomenal variety and creativity. They’re doing the coolest stuff with the most love. Many also rely heavily on FOMO, and some are just plain not open much of the time. Instead, they have monthly or seasonal release windows. They usually drop a new collection and may retire old ones.

How do you keep track? The Reddit Laquerists (sic) Nail Polish Release Calendar. You can also subscribe to brand newsletters--most give a small coupon on your first order. A lot are on Instagram and Facebook.

There are at least two dozen indie brands, and it’s hard to know where to start. I highly recommend Lyn B. Designs. I love her lacquers, absolutely flawless formula. She has big bottles, fast turn-around, and lots of variety. Get her top coat! It’s the best. But most importantly, she has a 50% off code for ALL products every time she launches a new collection. You can get top-quality lacquers for $6 each, and the big top coat refill for $12.50. No brand of any size can match that value. You can either follow her on Facebook for the code or check the calendar on launch day.

Others I like, in no particular order:

Bee’s Knees, Dam, Polished for Days, Great Lakes Lacquers for fantastic shimmers and reflectives. Garden Path and Rogue Lacquers have great flakies. Lurid Lacquer is pretty new, and she’s doing some really interesting things with intense shimmers and color-shifty chromes. Sassy Sauce keeps a small, tidy line-up, but it’s all quality and creative stuff. She’ll also have some nice thermals once October hits--she doesn’t ship them during summer, which I respect.

Cupcake is kind of a workhorse brand like KBShimmer: nothing too spectacular, but everything is solid and reasonably priced. Likewise, Glisten & Glow isn't too exciting but IS cheap and high-quality. Emily de Molly is Just Good. Drunk Fairy has really nice jellies and cremes. Wildflower Lacquers is closed for rebranding, back 09/06; I don’t have any from her yet but I gotta give props for big bottles, a fan brush, and surviving in Oklahoma.

Death Valley Nails is a little pricey but they’re doing the weirdest, most absolutely unique shit out there. They’re making polish out of rocks and wildflowers. One looks like the sink after your boyfriend shaves. It’s great.

Clionadh gets some hype but IMO they’re overpriced and overrated. They definitely up the saturation on swatch pics. I’m unimpressed by Femme Fatale’s formula and teeny 9 ml size. Shleee polishes don’t self level at all. Stella Chroma still sells Harry Potter themed polishes and I'm very over that.

But really, the best way to check out indie brands is…

Indie Preorders

There are two big indie collabs every month that work on a pre-order basis: Polish Pickup and Hella Handmade Creations. They open for a week each month and feature unique, one-time only products from a ton of indie brands. They can cause major FOMO. If you feel that might not be healthy for you, stay away! But if you’re okay with the possibility that you may never be able to replace a bottle you finish off, you’ll find some great stuff. They’re an excellent way to explore new brands, and creators get to be a little experimental. PPU has fun monthly themes; HHC doesn’t have a general theme, but many creators do a series of fandom-themed designed. Indie polish creators tend to be pretty nerdy.

If you want to try non-US brands, go to Color4Nails.They’re a stockist that carries several brands, drugstore, boutique, and indie. They also have monthly pre-orders for a few Brazilian brands like Phoenix Indie Polish and Penelope Luz. I find the Brazilian brands to be a little pricey, with smallish bottles and fairly thin consistency, but they’re doing some interesting stuff. I’m pretty consistently impressed with Phoenix; PL less so.

Karissa Kovner's legacy:

Miss Microplastics 2021

A senior policy advisor at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) named Karissa Kovner exchanged emails with the American Chemical Council (ACC) in April 2019 regarding a proposal by the Swiss government to list microplastic UV-328 in the Stockholm Convention, the UN’s global treaty on chemicals that don’t easily break down in nature.

UV-328’s inclusion in the treaty would lead to a ban on its production and use, which is currently common in plastic products, rubber, paints, coatings, and cosmetics.

ACC officials forwarded an email to Kovner about the proposal, to which she said, “Wow — that’s quite a precedent. Holy moly.”

The ACC then told Kovner the Swiss government’s push is the “first concrete proposal” to label UV-328 as a persistent organic pollutant (POP).

“Welcome to our future,” Kovner said. Kovner’s comments were made when she was serving under former President Donald Trump, but she appears to still be leading the EPA’s work on chemicals under Biden.

Miss Brain Damage 2023

“Many developing countries look at the Stockholm Convention as an opportunity for greater protection,” said Joe DiGangi, a chemical expert who began attending the yearly meetings of the Stockholm Convention in 2005. “The U.S. often looks at it as a threat to their industry.”

There is evidence that that chlorpyrifos has spread around the world and can now be found in caribou, ringed seals, polar bears and other animals in the arctic, as well as in the ice, seawater and air of Antarctica, and in human breast milk in numerous countries, including the U.S. It is also clearly proven that the pesticide can cause serious harm.

Karissa Kovner did not question these facts, but rather their significance, according to Watts, the New Zealand-based scientist. “She sowed doubt in the minds of all the delegates about whether the levels that are being found in the arctic actually really matter at all,” Watts said of Kovner.

Wow! Holy Moly Karissa! Thanks for poisoning us!

The company's unwavering dedication to upholding the highest standards is uncompromising, and it consistently supplies superior gaskets to clients across the globe. We never compromise on quality, and its customers can trust the company to deliver reliable and long-lasting products every time.

Gaskets are among the most significant components in most industrial installations, providing the much-needed seal solutions for equipment and pipes. Their role becomes even more crucial at times of high pressure. Severe leakage and possible damage to a machine due to gasket failure as well as serious safety issues are some of the reasons why the understanding of a gasket's importance in high-pressure conditions is also a desirable requisite in the industry as the efficiency and output increase. It then becomes very essential for the engineers, technicians, and managers to understand the role of a gasket.

1. What is a Gasket?

A gasket is a mechanical seal that fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, preventing leakage of fluids or gases under compression. Made from a variety of materials including rubber, silicone, metal, cork, and composite materials, gaskets are designed to withstand a range of environmental conditions, including temperature, pressure, and chemical exposure.

In high-pressure environments, gaskets must maintain their integrity despite significant forces acting upon them. Any deformation or failure could compromise the system, making gasket selection and installation critical to the safety and efficiency of the operation.

2. Challenges in High-Pressure Environments

High-pressure environments include oil and gas pipelines, power generation, chemical processing, and aerospace applications. Such conditions present extreme challenges for the parts used in such systems. Gaskets must withstand high pressure and often also high temperatures, aggressive chemicals, and mechanical vibrations.

Some of the key challenges for gaskets in such environments include:

Compression Forces: High pressures exert significant compressive forces on gaskets. These forces can cause materials to deform or extrude, leading to leaks. Choosing the right material and design is essential to avoid such issues.

Thermal Expansion: Changes in temperature can cause the materials around the gasket to expand and contract. If the gasket material does not have the right thermal characteristics, it may lose its ability to seal or deteriorate over time.

Chemical Compatibility: In sectors like chemical processing, gaskets face exposure to corrosive materials. Selecting gasket materials that are compatible with the specific chemicals present is crucial to prevent deterioration or malfunction.

Vibration and Movement: High-pressure systems often undergo mechanical oscillations or displacements. Gaskets must be able to adapt to these changes while still maintaining their ability to create a tight seal.

3. Types of Gaskets for High-Pressure Applications

Different types of gaskets are used in high-pressure applications, each with unique characteristics suited to specific environments. Here are some common gasket types that are widely used:

a) Metallic Gaskets

Metallic seals are frequently used in high-pressure settings because of their resilience and capacity to endure harsh conditions. These seals are commonly constructed from stainless steel, Inconel, or other high-strength metals. They are well-suited for applications involving extreme temperatures, high pressures, and corrosive surroundings.

Spiral Wound Gaskets: These sealing devices are made by combining metal and filler materials, such as graphite, which are then wound into a spiral shape. This construction enables the gasket to withstand high levels of pressure and temperature while still remaining flexible.

Ring-Type Joint Gaskets (RTJ): Metal RTJ gaskets are used in demanding settings with high pressure and heat, particularly in the oil and gas sectors. Crafted from solid metal, they fit into a grooved flange and create a tight seal when compressed, making them dependable for crucial applications.

b) Non-Metallic Gaskets

Soft and flexible non-metallic gaskets, commonly made from materials like rubber, PTFE, or graphite, are often used in situations where high pressure is not the sole consideration, but where there is a need for chemical resistance, flexibility, or electrical insulation as well.

PTFE Gaskets: PTFE is a chemically stable material that can endure a variety of chemicals, making it well-suited for chemical processing settings. Additionally, it provides low friction and high heat resistance.

Graphite Gaskets: Graphite seals provide strong resistance to high heat and pressure. They are commonly utilized in steam, gas, and chemical systems due to their capability to maintain sealing efficiency even when temperatures vary.

c) Composite Gaskets

Composite gaskets blend metallic and non-metallic components to leverage the strengths of each material. They are commonly used in situations requiring a mix of temperature tolerance, pressure resistance, and flexibility.

Kammprofile Gaskets: These gaskets have a metal center with a jagged shape, frequently covered with a softer, non-metal material like graphite. The metal center gives the gasket strength and resistance to pressure, while the softer material enhances the sealing ability.

We offer an array of sealing in diverse dimensions across the Indian subcontinent.

4. Gasket Material Selection for High-Pressure Environments

Selecting the right gasket material is crucial for ensuring reliability in high-pressure environments. Some key considerations include:

Pressure Rating: The gasket material needs to be able to handle the highest pressure the system will operate under without becoming misshapen or breaking.

Temperature Tolerance: Extreme heat can cause sealing materials to become soft or deteriorate. It is crucial to select materials with suitable thermal characteristics to guarantee consistent performance.

Chemical Compatibility: Chemicals can degrade certain gasket materials, leading to corrosion, swelling, or cracking. Verifying chemical compatibility is crucial, particularly in industries such as oil, gas, and chemical production.

Creep Resistance: Certain materials gradually change shape or deform when subjected to continuous pressure over time. In high-pressure settings, choosing a material with strong resistance to this deformation is crucial to ensure effective sealing performance.

5. Proper Installation and Maintenance

A well-made gasket can still malfunction if not installed correctly. In high-pressure systems, it's vital to make sure the gasket is uniformly compressed between the connecting parts. Tightening it too much can make the gasket distort, while not tightening it enough can cause it to leak.

Periodic examination and upkeep are also crucial for sustained effectiveness. In numerous cases, high-pressure systems undergo cyclic pressure and temperature fluctuations, which can lead to the gradual deterioration of gasket material over time. By inspecting and replacing gaskets as part of a regular maintenance routine, industries can prevent expensive and hazardous breakdowns.

6. The Future of Gasket Technology

As industries advance and push the boundaries of pressure and temperature in their operations, gasket technology must also progress. Innovative materials, including advanced composites and high-performance rubbers, are being created to meet the requirements of increasingly challenging applications.

Advancements in manufacturing, including 3D printing, are enabling the creation of customized gasket designs that can be tailored to meet specific needs. This degree of personalization allows for more accurate sealing solutions, which minimizes the likelihood of failure and enhances the overall reliability of the system.

Difference between EPDM and Nitrile Rubber

Synthetic rubber is an artificial man-made elastomer that is used in a vast range of domestic as well as industrial applications. There are different types of Synthetic rubbers, each with its different properties.

EPDM Rubber and Nitrile Rubber are two such common synthetic rubber compounds that are used extensively.

While both EPDM and Nitrile rubbers offer a considerable amount of elasticity and durability, they differ in their properties, resistance to certain environmental conditions or mediums, and have their applications.

What is EPDM Rubber?

EPDM Rubber, or Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer Rubber, was developed in the 1960s.

As rubber as a raw material became widespread in use, manufacturers began to realize that there was a need for synthetic UV-resistant rubber that could withstand exposure to outdoor environments for an extended period without facing degradation like natural rubber. The answer to this was EPDM Rubber.

EPDM is made up of ethylene, propylene, and diene comonomers, and have a saturated polyethylene backbone to their structure, which provides them with a high resistance capability to heat, light, and ozone, as compared to other rubber materials.

This property of endurance outdoor weathering exposure is what sets EPDM Rubbers apart from other rubbers and has earned it industry-wide appeal and acceptance.

Properties of EPDM Rubber

EPDM offers considerable resistance to abrasion, heat, steam, light, UV rays, water, and ozone, giving it a weatherproof quality and high durability, which makes it an excellent choice for outdoor applications.

It is also resilient and flexible, possessing low electrical conductivity, high noise insulation, a maximum elongation of 600%, and a tensile range of 500-2500 P.S.I.

It can function at temperatures as low as -51⁰C and as high as 150°C without air. It is also compatible with mild acids, alcohols, ketones, silicone oils, greases, hot and cold water, detergents, alkalis, fireproof hydraulic fluids, etc.

On the other hand, EPDM is incompatible with most hydrocarbons, such as kerosene, oils, gasoline, halogenated solvents, and some lubricants.

The durability, flexibility, and long life in extreme environments are what make EPDM rubbers a widely-used synthetic material in the industry.

Primary Uses Of EPDM Rubber

EPDM rubbers can be produced in many forms, such as EPDM sheet rubbers as well as adhesives.

Some common applications of the EPDM rubber include :

Seals and Sealants.

Gaskets.

O-Rings.

Tubing.

Washers.

Cooling Systems.

Brake Systems.

Ozone Exposure Applications.

Roofing.

Waterproof Coating.

Custom Moulded Rubber Components.

What is Nitrile Rubber?

Nitrile Rubber, also known as NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) or Buna-N, was first developed in the 1930s.

During WW1, rubber was high in demand. The price of natural rubber skyrocketed after the war due to shortages. That sparked a renewed interest in the development of synthetic rubber, paving the way for Nitrile / Buna-N.

Nitrile is composed of acrylonitrile and butadiene monomers. It is highly resistant to oil, gas, diesel fuel, chemicals, and petroleum products.

Today, it is one of the widely used synthetic rubbers, especially in the sealant industry. A huge benefit of Nitrile Rubberis that it is cost-efficient and provides flexibility in applications.

Properties of Nitrile Rubber

One of the most significant advantages that Nitrile offers is its imperviousness to mineral oils, vegetable oils, benzene and petrol, petroleum-based products, diesel fuels, gas, chemicals, diluted acids, and alkaline.

The amount of oil resistance is influenced by the percentage of acrylonitrile in the rubber. The higher the acrylonitrile content, the better the resistance as well as strength and permeability. Lower acrylonitrile means less resistance but more flexibility at lower temperatures.

Nitrile can operate at temperatures ranging from -40°C to 108°C and is also abrasion, tear, and compression set resistant.

It offers three times more puncture resistance than natural rubber and possesses a 600% elongation rate and a 500-2500 P.S.I. tensile range. Nitrile, however, also has drawbacks, with poor resistance to UV rays, ozone, weathering, and extended outdoor exposure.

Primary Uses of Nitrile Rubber

Some common applications of Nitrile rubber include:

Sealants.

Molded Goods.

Gasket.

Hydraulic Hoses.

Conveyor Belting.

Washers.

O-Rings.

Fuel Systems.

Protective Equipment (like Gloves).

Oil Resistant Applications.

It is also ideal for automotive, aeronautical, nuclear, as well as kitchen applications.

EPDM vs Nitrile Rubber – Which is Better?

Both EPDM Rubber and Nitrile Rubber have their advantages and disadvantages.

However, they’re also quite similar in some of their properties. Before we look at their differences, let’s take a look at their similarities.

EPDM and Nitrile rubbers are synthetic elastomers that are both highly durable and flexible. They are similar in their elongation percentage, tensile strength, and impervious abrasion, and compression set. The two are also commonly used for O-rings, gaskets, and other industrial applications.

After understanding how they are similar, let’s go through their core differences.

EPDM’s temperature resistance range is from -51°C to 150°C, while for Nitrile, it is -40°C to 108°C. While both work well in extreme temperatures, EPDM has a slight edge over Nitrile.

EPDM Rubber is great at providing resistance against UV Rays, Ozone, Sunlight, and Weathering Conditions, and can hold well in outdoor environments without facing degrading.

Nitrile has extremely low resistance against UV Rays, Ozone, and weathering effects, and performs poorly in outdoor environments.

On the contrary, Nitrile Rubber provides great resistance to gasoline, diesel fuel, motor oil, non-polar solvents, and petroleum-based products, as compared to EPDM, which is poorly resistant to them. Due to this, while EPDM is used frequently in braking systems in vehicles, Nitrile finds better use in the fuel systems.

Another difference between EPDM and Nitrile is that EPDM is an aromatic polymer but Nitrile, on the other hand, is non-aromatic. And when it comes to cost, Nitrile is the more expensive one out of the two.

Making the Right Choice – EPDM vs Nitrile Rubber.

When you choose between EPDM Rubber and Nitrile Rubber, you need to consider its application and the environment during the decision-making process.

If you want a rubber product that performs well in outdoor environments when exposed to ozone, sunlight, and UV rays, then EPDM Rubber is your best bet.

However, when such exposures are not a concern and fuels are involved, then Nitrile is a more suitable option.

Now that you know the basics of EPDM and Nitrile Rubber, their properties, their applications, and their differences, we hope that you will be able to utilize them to your advantage.

If you need any rubber products, you can rely on R-Tech Rubber Industries. They provide a wide variety of Rubber products in India.
