Are your nail products toxic?

Sadly some nail polishes that are widely available don't have a warning label as to the health risks!

A very high percentage of cosmetics that contain one or more of the ingredients listed below are linked with health and environmental concerns such as asthma, cancer, reproductive disorders and severe allergies.

Does your nail polish contain these toxic ingredients?

Dibutyl phthalate is a solvent used for dyes. The European Union have classified this as being suspicious, as it can cause endocrine disruption. This means it would have toxic effects on reproduction. It is only classified as suspicious, but not banned, so please be careful. This has also been associated with liver and kidney failure in young children. You are not doing your little ones a favour in painting their fingers and toes.

Formaldehyde is common in nail hardeners. In nail polish, tosylamide/formaldehyde resin is used.  Cancer research has classified formaldehyde as a human carcinogen, which is toxic to our bodies!

Toluene is a skin irritant which can cause dermatitis. This substance is a toxic hazard in human milk, and inhalation of these vapours can have detrimental effects on the central nervous system.  This could also cause drowsiness, headaches, nasal irritation and aggravation to the throat and respiratory tract.

There are completely "natural" products available. Check with your nail technician, and if you have concerns I would advise purchasing your own nail varnish and take it with you when you visit a salon.

Trendy Nails

Spring is here and the latest nail trends are varied.  The looks range from light and innocent, to dark and dangerously chic this season. There are pretty swan white polishes, barely-there French manicures.  Two-tone manicures also add perfect pop and sparkle to a special event.  Book your appointment and feel pampered!

Pamper Parties

Pamper Parties are a fun away to entertain your guests. We can tailor our services to your request. Our clients enjoy a manicure and either plain paint finish, or a funky / fun design on their nails. It all depends on your style and ideas. We do also prepare specially made up gifts for each of your guests.
