Nail Art




Nail art is a creative activity to design fingernails (either colour nails or draw pictures). It is also part of fashion activity, related to manicuring. Today fingernails and toenails are observed as important points of beauty. Also we see artificial nail which we call Acrylic nails with beautiful designs and colours available in market (specifically in "nail bars").



ACRYLIC Nails

Artificial nails, also known as fake nails, false nails, fashion nails, nail enhancements, or nail extensions, are coverings placed over fingernails as fashion accessories. Some artificial nails attempt to mimic the appearance of real fingernails as closely as possible, while other designs may deliberately stray in appearance from real fingernails. Artificial nails are made from a wide variety of materials.

Precaution:

If you are thinking about doing your own acrylic nails, please, please please consider carefully where you are buying your products from and don't be shy in asking the supplier what they contain.

MMA is Methyl Metha-crylate.  This products is BANNED in the USA.

Why you should avoid MMA:
In the USA MMA has been classed as a poison, it can cause the following through prolonged exposure:

  • permanent nail loss
  • miscarriages
  • liver damage
  • respiratory problems (ever wondered why the nail techs in some shops where masks)
  • because of it's strength it is inflexible and can literally lift the natural nail off the nail plate.


If you have any doubts over whether or not the Acrylic Liquid/Acrylic Monomer you have purchased contains MMA, ask the supplier for an MSDS (material specifications data sheet) and this will tell you exactly what the product contains


Put your health and safety first before trying to save money on acrylic liquid.


Look for Acrylic Liquid that does not contain MMA.
