The ingredients in nail polish can vary, but some common components include:
- Film-forming polymers : such as nitrocellulose or acrylate copolymers
- Solvents : like butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, or isopropyl acetate
- Plasticizers : to yield non-brittle films, such as dibutylphthalate, diethylphthalate, and camphor
- Dyes and pigments : for color, including compounds like chromium oxide, iron oxide, and micas
These are just a few examples, and nail polish formulas can contain additional ingredients. It's important to be aware of the components, especially if you have specific allergies or sensitivities.
