“Healthy” Nail Polish

by Arielle J on January 6, 2012

If you know me well, you know that I LOVE nail polish. In 7th grade, I even did my science fair project on nail polish – why lighter colors stay on longer than darker colors. Rarely, will you see me wearing a light or nude color on my nails…and (hardly) NEVER will you see my nails bare (yes, i know they need to “breathe” once in while).

My thoughts on nail polish: the more colorful, metallic and sparkly, the better! It brightens up my week and makes my hands look prettier and more feminine. I love getting a manicure but I actually like giving myself manicures too – paired with a cup of tea and a candle…and Housewives of Beverly Hills, it makes the perfect evening activity!

Lately, I’ve been digging this as my base coat:

Karma Hues Organic Nail Polish

Karma Hues Organic Nail Polish

I figure at least if the base coat is free of Toulene, Formaldehyde AND DBP, it’s better than all three coats chemically-coated, right?! Also, it’s a “2 in 1” Base Coat so it acts as Base Coat and Top Coat!

I bought these specific ones at Whole Foods and some Natural Food Stores have this brand and other chemical-free nail polish brands that you can try…

Don’t get me wrong, I still LOVE Essie and O.P.I, but organic nail polish is def better for our us, and they do have pretty cool colors, like Skyline Blue and these colors.
