The Dish with DDR: Five-Free Nail Polish!

The Dish with DDR: Five-Free Nail Polish!

It’s hard enough to find a nail polish that actually lasts longer than an episode of the Kardashians much less one that is long lasting AND free of harmful, toxic chemicals! But, I may have just discovered a brand that I will covet. Introducing (if you don’t already know) Lauren B. Beauty Nail Couture!

I tested this “If this color doesn’t scream summer I don’t know what does!” cobalt, ocean blue polish to see how well it stood the test of time and typical daily activities..like showering and washing dishes. Luckily, Lauren B. Beauty claims and delivers a high shine, chip resistant, long-lasting formula. And, just so you know, the formula DOES NOT include any harmful chemicals that could be destructive to your health.

This brand is regarded as “5-Free,” which means, free of the five most detrimental additives found in common beauty products. There is NO formaldehyde (a carcinogen), NO formaldehyde resin (an allergen), NO DBP (endocrine disruptor that is toxic to the reproductive system), NO toluene (toxic to nervous system) and NO camphor (known to cause liver damage). When a polish is absorbed through your porous nail bed, these ingredients can seep into your blood stream causing major bodily malfunctions down the road.  BUT, have no fear, that can be avoided.  Check out the wide nail selection on Lauren B. Beauty to see all the fun, bright summer shades and some other fab products.
