Risks and Disadvantages of Excessive use of Spray Polish

Spray nail polish  formulations may include ingredients that are toxic or effect other health problems. A group of chemicals found in personal care products may raise the risk of diabetes.  A new study was done on women, Women in the study with highest concentrations of these chemicals, called phthalates, in their bodies were more likely to have diabetes than women with lowest concentrations, the researchers said.
Phthalates are found in a variety of products, including spray nail polish, hair sprays, soaps and shampoos.
There was also a link between high concentrations of phthalates and insulin resistance among women who did not have diabetes.  The findings suggest that phthalates could disrupt blood sugar metabolism, said study researcher Tamarra James-Todd, of Brigham and Women's Hospital's Division of Women's Health.
According to Reutman, a growing body of scientific literature suggests that some inhaled and absorbed organic solvents found in nail salons such as glycol ethers and carbon dilsufide may be human reproductive toxicants. These are responsible for effects including birth defects, low birth weight, miscarriage, and preterm birth.

Advantages of using Spray Nail Polish

There are many advantages in using spray nail polish such as:


If you have only 15 minutes before a night out, alongside false lashes and lipstick, this little can could be an essential part of your pre-party rescue kit. 
Its easy to use and fast to dry, you dont have to wait for half an hour for the color to dry, and get ruined if you touched something before it dries. It doesn't harm the skin and you can easily remove the spray on your fingers with water and soap. Also, its an affordable item, it is sold in an average of 10-12$. the company is working on launching new colors. Say goodbye to the old fashioned nail polish bottle.





How to use it



The theory is straightforward. Apply a base coat with a brush for the polish to stick to, spray your nails (and, inevitably, the tips of your fingers and cuticles), then wait a few minutes for the color to dry, before applying a top coat - also with a brush - to set the polish.
When that’s dry, use soap and water to wash away the excess from your fingers and cuticles, leaving you with a perfect manicure.
This latest innovation, Paint Can, is from Nails Inc. ‘We’re always looking for something new,’ says Thea Green, who founded the company in 1999. ‘We know our customer is time-poor, so anything that gives a longer-lasting manicure, less drying time, or faster application is always of interest.’








The Idea of Spray Polish

Pop quiz: You're heading out for a night on the town with the girls and your chipped nails are looking a little rough. Grabbing that bottle of polish isn't going to cut it this time. What do you do?
a) Attempt to repaint them, only to have them smudge while you're getting dressed.
b) Keep them chipped.
c) Use spray-on nail polish.
Answer: c, naturally. And if you thought such a genius formula doesn't exist, think again.
British lacquer brand Nails Inc. have created the formula of the beauty future with their latest invention, The Paint Can. The polish, which comes in a graffiti-like spray can, is said to be "the world's fastest manicure," wrapping up in 20 seconds.

History of Nail Polish

When it comes to girls,of all ages, almost all of them have the habit of wearing nail polish. Nail polish originated in China, and its use dates back to 3000 BC. Around 600 BC, during the Zhou dynasty, the royal house preferred the colors gold and silver. However, red and black eventually replaced these metallic colors as royal favorites. During the Ming dynasty, nail polish was often made from a mixture that included beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, vegetable dyes, and gum Arabic.
In Egypt, the lower classes wore pale colors, whereas high society painted their nails a reddish brown, with henna. It was also known that mummified pharaohs would have their nails painted by henna.[5]
By the turn of the ninth century, nails were tinted with scented red oils, and polished or buffed. In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, people preferred a polished rather than a painted look by mixing tinted powders and creams into their nails, then buffing them until shiny.
