A Better Nail Polish

When I was pregnant I stopped using regular nail polish because I'd read about chemicals in it that can be harmful for a growing baby. And just one whiff will tell anyone they probably shouldn't be around it for very long either. But I love to have a bit of color on my toes, so I decided to seek out a more natural option. I found No Miss at Whole Foods, which comes in tons of great colors and is very similar in consistency and wear to traditional polishes, but doesn't contain formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl-pthalate or camphor- some of the most harmful ingredients found in common brands. I have also started using No Miss's "Almost Natural" nail polish remover- it isn't quite as effective as the old stuff, but it is much less stinky and with a little extra rubbing gets the job done just fine. Here's to pretty (and non-toxic) summer feet!
