I’m really excited about this deal! Having a daughter is fun, but I haven’t ventured into the really girly things yet. She’s only 22 months old, and I would be so worried putting regular nail polish on her, especially with how much she puts her hands in her mouth.
Sprout Non-Toxic Nail Polish is a great alternative! Here is the explanation of the difference between traditional polishes and the Sprout brand, straight from their Etsy shop page:
Solvent based nail polish can contain phthalates, toluene, acetone, benzene, ethyl alcohol, and/or formaldehyde which are absorbed by your body. Formaldehyde has been linked to lung and nasal cancer, and is considered a know carcinogen. Toluene has been known to effect the nervous system and cause dizziness, headaches, eye irritation, nausea, birth defects, developmental abnormalities, and liver and kidney damage. Phthalates has been linked to productive issues if exposed to pregnant women. Sprout’s Ingredients: Waterbase acrylics copolymers, some colors may contain mica, titanium dioxide and a variety of lead free pigments. Water is a major component in our nail polish. The acrylic polymers are biologically inactive. In short, these ingredients are not absorbed by your body. Therefore safe to use and safe if ingested.
Because of these differences, Sprout products are suitable for children, pregnant women, and anyone concerned with traditional ingredients! I’m happy to learn about a safe option for my little girls, and excited to have some girly time with C!
Right now on Zulily.com, Sprout Non-Toxic Nail Polish is on sale! Get individual colors as low as $5.99, or sets of 4 for $11.99! I think I’m going to buy a set for C for her birthday so we can have a little Mommy/Daughter time!
