Nailed it!

Nina Ultra Pro‘Tis the season for wearing open toed shoes and sandals and that can only mean one thing: Pedicures! I found the Nina Ultra Pro nail polish at my local Sally beauty store. It is free from toluene, formaldehyde and DBP(dibutyl phthalate). According to Esther’s Nail Center:

DBP or ‘dibutyl phthalate’ is a plasticizer that makes nail polish flexible. Toluene is a colorless liquid used as a solvent. And Formaldehyde helps harden nails. It’s also a cheap preservative used in shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and children’s bubble bath.

Other non-toxic nail care brands are Adoree, Zoya, Nubar, Honeybee Gardens, Suncoat, and Earth Therapeutics. So show off those pretty toes this summer without worrying about carcinogenic chemicals.
