Few are aware of the amount of toxic chemicals that most standard nail polishes on the market contain. On average there are up to 10 highly toxic ingredients that are allowed in standard nail polish that we expose ourselves to all for a fresh set.

 

Since nails are very porous—especially when wet, they tend to absorb what we put on them.

 

Not only are you breathing in these toxins while painting your nails but even when your nails are dry you are still exposing your body to these chemicals through rubbing of the eyes or even biting your nails.
