For those who want an alternative to solvent-based nail enamel,
we've got the solution for you! Our unique water-based polish is

best of all, there's also no need for toxic smelly nail polish
remover - this product removes with rubbing alcohol, vodka/grain
alcohol or our Nail Polish Remover! Thanks to our new patented
technology, there's nothing else like it on the market! PRODUCT

What makes this product different from traditional polish You
already know it's water-based, it's free from harsh
odors and has no formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl phthalates or FD&
C colors. But let's take that a step further. Without getting too
technical, let's explore the fundamental differences between
solvent-based and water-based systems. Solvent- based polishes
are simple solutions of nitrocellulose resins in strong solvents.
Nitrocellulose is used because it forms a very hard film easily
as the solvents evaporate from the base. These harsh,
bad-smelling solvents, are then also used to remove the polish by
dissolving the film. By contrast, water-based polish uses an
emulsion resin in the form of billions of very small particles
suspended in water. As the water evaporates, the particles touch
each other and form a hard film which is no longer soluble in
water. At first, it may seem that these systems are similar, the
only difference being the carrier base. But they are in fact as
different as night and day. One cures by reversible solvent
evaporation, the other by creating a tightly knit film. One is
easily dissolved, the other not so easily. Several states are
beginning to regulate VOCs (volatile compounds) emitted
by nail polishes and nail polish removers. WaterColors Nail
Enamel has very low VOCs. Product appearance You'll notice the
Clear Base/ Top Coat polish actually appears milky white in the
bottle. The milkiness disappears upon drying to form a clear
coat. Sometimes minor settling occurs in some colors, and you may
notice a light ring of color at the top of the bottle, or some
sparkle floating to the bottom. We have shaker beads inside, so a
light shake of the polish easily re-disperses the pigment. Nail
preparation Solvent-based polishes can strip y nails of
naturally produced oils. Since our polish does not contain these
solvents, the oils remain on the nail. Wash and dry hands
thoroughly before applying polish. Those with very dry skin may
wish to apply a cuticle oil to nails first before applying polish
to help hydrate the nai
