6 Non-Toxic Polishes You Can Trust

Once upon a time, nail polish was a toned down version of the glossy enamel used on cars. Thankfully, great strides have been made over the past few years as more brands have come out with 3-free formulas that omit harmful dibutyl phthalate (DBP), toluene, and formaldehyde. The latest batch of toxin-free polishes are 5-free formulas that also cut out harmful formaldehyde resin, a skin allergen that can stay active up to three days after your polish has dried, and camphor, which becomes toxic when inhaled in large doses. Whether you're a salon regular or an at-home manicurist, choosing one of these better-for-you brands will give you some peace of mind with your glossy finish.
