Toxin-free nail care is a growing focus in the clean beauty world, and for good reason—traditional nail polishes and removers can contain chemicals that are linked to hormone disruption, skin irritation, and even potential reproductive harm with long-term exposure. Here's a breakdown of the key points:
Common Toxins Found in Conventional Nail Polish:
​
-
Formaldehyde – Carcinogen used to harden polish; linked to respiratory irritation and allergic reactions.
-
Toluene – Neurotoxin that can cause dizziness, headaches, and harm developing fetuses.
-
Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP) – Endocrine disruptor tied to reproductive toxicity and hormone imbalance.
-
Camphor – May cause nausea, headaches, and dizziness when inhaled.
-
Formaldehyde Resin – Derivative of formaldehyde that can irritate skin and trigger allergies.
-
Ethyl Tosylamide – Plasticizer banned in some countries over antibiotic resistance concerns.
-
Xylene – Solvent that can irritate eyes and skin and affect the nervous system.
-
Parabens & Synthetic Fragrances – Often hidden under vague labels; linked to hormone disruption and allergies.
