If you’re a cosmetic junkie, you own a fair share of nail polish, but the question you should ask yourself – are they safe? Michelle at All Lacquered Up recently wrote a very informative article, The Big 3 (toxic chemical that is) in nail polish. She paints a very clear picture of the chemicals in nail polish which have stirred some question. She gives an honest perspective, and links to further information, allowing you to decide. She says, "there has been a lot of talk about toxic chemicals in nail polish. Established brands have changed their formulas to be free of these chemicals which raises a lot of questions. What are they? What do they do? Why are they so bad? Are polishes just as good without them? Who makes polishes free of the Big 3?" If you are interested in the answers to any of these questions check out this article. Let me know what you think as a comment below.

I love nail polish, and I was wondering. I am doing a science project on how long different nail polish brands affect the time and how long it takes for it to start wearing over a week. I wasn’t sure which chemical was the chemical that made it last longer. I don’t know what it is and i was wondering what it was? I have to have this project done by either January or Febuary. HELP!!!

Chemicals in nail polish is something many of us should be aware of, especially those who wear and have been wearing nail polish for a long period of time. I think a lot of people are still very much unaware of the potential dangers of chemicals seeping in through their bodies (nails) and into their blood stream!!!
