How Safe Is Nail Polish For Kids?
If you’re a mother who loves to adorn your kid’s nails with nail polish, there is something you should look at for when gunning after nail friendly polishes for your kids.
One such thing you should look at for is to ensure that the polish you’re going after is that which is non-toxic.
Does the polish contain Toluene, Formaldehyde etc. which are a prerequisite of most regular nail polishes out there?
If yes, then you obviously shouldn’t go after that especially if you have a kid who can’t resist sticking his or her hands into his mouth.
So what do I recommend? A water-based polish is what you should go after. Although water-based polish takes longer time to dry, it’s indeed an excellent polish for your kids. Here’s an article that explains everything you need to know about nail polishes that are safe for your kids.
Having said that, lets quickly look through some collections of easy nail designs for kids you can do at home.
