In early June, small business Scandal Beauty, which sells press-on nails, uploaded a TikTok in which they compared a set of their nails, with the \u2018Scandal Press-Ons\u2019 set that was released as part of Nikita\u2019s collab with beauty company Makartt. \u201cWe heard there are some new scandal nails on the market,\u201d they wrote in the on-screen caption. \u201cOh, how interesting. She actually placed an order from us not too long ago.\u201d Click here if TikTok doesn\u2019t load They included a screenshot of a purchase from someone calling themselves Nikita Dragun from LA 8 months prior. Scandal Beauty then compared the two sets of nails, showing the difference in the number of nails and sizes provided, the color of the nails, and more. They also attempted to snap both nails to test the durability, with only the Makartt nail breaking. \u201cWe can\u2019t wait to see her rocking these on the red carpet,\u201d they added, referring to Nikita\u2019s collab.

Another user wrote: \u201cMaaaybe she could\u2019ve gotten away with it cuz it\u2019s just a simple black french, but the fact she ordered and named it the same is a dead giveaway.\u201d So far, it appears as though Nikita and Makartt have yet to respond to the video from Scandal Beauty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nikita Dragun accused of copying new beauty product from small business Instagram: nikitadragunA small business has accused YouTuber Nikita Dragun of copying their product with her new press-on nail collab with Makartt. 26-year-old Nikita Dragun is an influencer best known for her YouTube channel, where she posts videos about makeup and beauty to her 3 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56476","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56476","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56476"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56476\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56476"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56476"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56476"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
