Zoya Nail Polish: A Healthier Non-Toxic Choice!
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009
For years I have heard about how nail polish containing phthalates, formaldehyde, toluene and camphor. These ingredients are all chemicals that can disrupt your nervous system, hormones and more. Now that may sound a little dramatic, but I am one to believe that chemicals are harmful to our bodies. We are just women trying to look more beautiful and adding some enjoyment in our lives, so why do beauty products contain these horrible ingredients? The sad truth is that many cosmetics on the market do!
Nail polish being one of the worst offenders, I was more than ecstatic to find ZOYA which is free of phthalates, formaldehyde, toluene and camphor. This brand offers a great alternative to mainstream nail polish with just as many if not more of a color selection. ZOYA even has this season’s very popular matte texture nail polish, so needless to say they are not lacking in the trend department! From the nudist of the nudes to the vampiest vamp, ZOYA has it all!
This polish retails for $7 a bottle, but is best used with their Basecoat and Armor Top Coat. Nail Polish Remover, as you can probably guess from the very potent aroma, is not the best as far as harmful chemicals go either. Luckily Zoya makes a nail polish remover that works great to remove all of the polish layers. You can pick up the entire set at www.ZOYA.com for $48.
In Denver there is a wonderful salon called Ananda’s in Cherry Creek North that offers an Organic Pedicure using Zoya and their home made sugar scrub. This is the best treat and I looking forward to my next appointment!
