Photos: Italian beauty brand 'Wycon' names black nail polish 'Thick As a N*gga'

Wycon Cosmetics is under fire for naming a black nail polish shade ‘Thick as a N*gga.’

According to Forbes, Italian beauty vlogger Loretta Grace was one of the first to call out the brand for the distasteful name. Wycon defends naming their ‘Thick as a N*gga’ polish, arguing that many of their polishes are inspired by hip-hop such as ‘Bootylicious’ and ‘Candy Shop.’ The company says ‘Thick as a N*gga’ is inspired by a DBangz song called “Thick N*ggas and Anime Tiddies.”
