Whos making safe nail polish?
A. Several companies who have signed the Compact make nail polishes, treatments and removers without harmful chemicals, including Anise Nail Care, Honeybee Gardens and NAIL-AID Treatments. So you dont have to give up your mani-pedi visits, just BYOP (Bring Your Own Polish) the next time you go! And it wont hurt to let your salon know about the health effects associated with polishes and treatments and how they can swap toxic products with safer alternatives to protect their own health, too.
