The ingredients in nail products can vary, but here are some common ones found in nail polish and nail stickers:
Nail Polish Ingredients
- Nail Polish Colors : Butyl Acetate, Ethyl Acetate, Nitrocellulose, Phthalic Anhydride/Trimellitic Anhydride/Glycols Copolymer, Acetyl Tributyl Citrate, Isopropyl Alcohol, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Citric Acid, and various pigments and dyes
- UV Stabilizers : Benzophenone, to prevent polish from changing color or fading when exposed to sunlight
- Plasticizers : Trimethyl pentanyl diisobutyrate, triphenyl phosphate, camphor, and ethyl tosylamide, added to keep the resin flexible once it's dry
