A healthier way to style your nails. –

I haven’t met a lady that doesn’t do her nails at least every once in a while. i have intense allergies, mainly to artificial ingredients. They are life threatening too. This has really put me off of buying regular nail polish. So many of the ingredients are known carcinogens, and used to embalm people. It’s kind of hard using something like that to beautify yourself. I’ve become introduced to a great company. One that took a stand and created a product rid of the usual ingredients. Ella & Mila Nail Polish Mommy and Me and Dream Collections , First Aid Nail Strengthener, and their Quick Dry Top Coat, are what I was lucky enough to review at a discount, in exchange for an unbiased and honest review.

These products are 5 free, which means they are fee of the usual 5 harmful ingredients that can be found in nail products. These chemicals are: Formaldehyde, Toluene, DiButyl Phthalate (DBP), Formaldehyde Resin, and Camphor. They are also a cruelty animal free and vegan company.

I used all of these products to do my nails. I started with their Nail-Care, Nail Strengthener – First Aid Kiss. It applies clearly. I used this instead of a base coat, since it’s purpose is to increase the health of your nails. In this product there are ingredients like calcium pantothenate and coffee extract, to help harden and strengthen your nails. They say to apply it once a week, for at least a couple weeks. I chose to apply it as my base coat. It did fill in ridges, and helped to make a smoother application of the nail polish, which in general is the purpose of a regular base coat. I like knowing that I am helping my nails with a polish, instead of hurting them like with most polishes. It dried fairly quickly too.

Then I applied their Mommy and Me duo in: I Mint It, and Milia’s Fave. These polishes went on very smoothly. I needed two coats of the green to cover like the one coat of the purple. It has a nice shine to it. These also dried quickly. Even the nails with two coats of the green polish dried quickly. They have a large variety of colors available too. After these dried, I applied to a couple nails, their, On Thin Ice color from their Dream Collection. This is a very pretty silver sparkly polish. I did two coats to get a thicker, almost full nail covering of sparkles. I mean, what girl doesn’t love sparkles! I really like it. It did not go on clumpy. It dried very quickly, and that was on top of the nail strengthener, and 2 green coats. These nail polishes do have the regular nail polish scent. That hasn’t diminished , lol, even with the removal of harmful ingredients. After my polishes dried, I applied their Quick Drying Top Coat. And wow, it is quick drying. It even gave my sparkles, a much smoother feeling to it. It applied evenly, and really gave my polishes a shine, and firm cover to them. This has to be my favorite top coat to date.

I am always working and doing something. I never sit still. My nails take a constant beating, and they have held up well with these products. I am really pleased with the quality and ingredients of these products. I very highly recommend them.
