Is Your Nail Polish Putting Your Health at Risk?
Whether you consider yourself to have less than healthy habits or are a self-proclaimed health and fitness guru, we all take a glance at the ingredient labels displayed on our favorite dishes and guilty pleasures. Some of us are simply curious, while others see it as a necessary measure because of food allergies or strict dietary regulations. In either scenario, we often extend this practice and examine the ingredients contained within our hair care products, facial lotions, and medications. One product that an overwhelming majority of girls and women of all ages use regularly, however, is often overlooked. Even those who use nail polish on a weekly basis would find it difficult to name a single ingredient listed on their signature hue.
The Problem
Shockingly, the list of ingredients is long for most brands and even more alarming, many of those listed are toxic. From TPHP, an ingredient that disrupts the endocrine system and negatively impacts reproductive health to Dibutyl Phthalate, a respiratory irritant; the list of harmful ingredients continues. Those fortunate enough to know of the harmful chemicals contained in typical nail polishes have struggled to find a safe alternative that provides lasting results and a wide range of colors.

When it comes to Sundays nails, 10 toxic free is just the beginning. The brand is also cruelty-free and vegan friendly.
What does “cruelty-free” mean in cosmetics?
Many companies who create cosmetics or other commercial products test their products on animals before they make these products available for sale to humans. The animals enduring this painful testing includes everything from hamsters and rabbits to dogs and cats. They are unwillingly subjected to chemicals which are toxic or even poisonous in order to determine if their products are fit for human use. This is a cruel practice and many animals are harmed during the process. Companies who focus on cruelty-free products do not harm or experiment on any animals. Instead, they typically use ingredients which are already known to be safe and are free of chemicals that cause concern, thus making them a safer and healthier option.
What is a “vegan-friendly” cosmetic?
When most people think of the word “vegan”, they think solely of a person’s diet. While not consuming animal-derived foods is a large part of the lifestyle, this concept goes further. A vegan cosmetic product also does not contain any ingredients that are derived from animals. This includes common ingredients like beeswax, honey, lanolin, and collagen.
Not all products that are cruelty-free are vegan-friendly and vice versa. Sundays nails 10 toxic-free products, however, are not tested on animals and do not contain any ingredients that are derived from animals. Sundays nails, 10 toxic free formulation is long-lasting and available in a wide array of hues so that you don’t have to sacrifice on anything to eliminate harmful chemicals from your cosmetics.
