What brands of nail polish is safe to wear while pregnant?

I want to know what hair dye brands and nail polish is okay to use while pregnant. What beauty rituals do you have while pregnant? Why do legs and feet get really swollen and tingly and does it worsen the more you sit longer, even with a foot rest?What brands of nail polish is safe to wear while pregnant?
I still dyed my hair and painted my nails while I was pregnant. As long as you're in a ventilated area you are fine. I even had my nails done when I was pregnant and the doctor didn't object whatsoever.





Plus, at 8-9 months along, you REALLY can't give yourself a pedicure. Hehe.





Some people prefer temporary dyes when they're pregnant and some prefer the permanent. I chose permanent. Temporary fades way too quickly. Be careful though. You never know what hormone changes your body is going thru at that specific time and hair color might not work the same pre-baby as it does at 3-6-9 months. It's all a constant change.





Good luck!

How can some one get nail polish off their mouth that prevents nail biting?

My daughter is trying to stop biting her nails and after applying this to her nails, she forgot and put a finger to her mouth. It causes a nasty taste and she can't get the taste off her lip now. Could she use nail polish remover on her lip?How can some one get nail polish off their mouth that prevents nail biting?
1) wash it w/soap %26amp; water in the shower/tub


2) or use toothpaste %26amp; tooth brush (be gentle though)


3) or try drinking some tomatoe juice





I guess that will help her not bite her nails anymore, huh? lol!





a little trick I use to quit biting my nails is to chew gum 24/7 unless I'm eating. I chew Orbit, because its sugar free and good for your teeth. Hope I helped! =)How can some one get nail polish off their mouth that prevents nail biting?

no she can't use it on her lip, that would make things worse. just have her wash her mouth and wait and it will wear off.

How can I make my nail polish last longer on my nails?

I do a base coat and top coat yet my nail polish chips the same day. Is there anything that will make the nail polish stay on for atleast a few days without chipping? Any ideas? Thanks!!How can I make my nail polish last longer on my nails?
Base coat and top coat are great!





One thing that we do in the salon that most women don't do at home is clean the nail before applying the polish. I use a product by CND called Scrub Fresh. You can also use acetone or an acetone based remover.How can I make my nail polish last longer on my nails?
If your nail polish chips the same day you are using the wrong kind of nail polish and probably applying the coats too thick. My favorite nail polish is OPI. You can get it at Trade Secret, Ulta or JCPenney. It costs $7.50 a bottle, but I use my Ulta rewards and get it for free. OPI makes a product called Chip Skip, which you apply as a base coat, then apply two coats of polish, and then apply the OPI Rapid Dry top coat. Your nails should go several days without chipping. When you apply the polish, never put on more than two coats at once, and apply two thin coats using just enough color to even coat each nail. When you apply the polish too thick, it never gets a chance to dry thoroughly.
one coat of base, let dry well, 2 coats of polish, let dry well between, two coats of top coat, letting dry well. Use polish remover on nails before starting to get all the oil off them
i love sally hansen no-chip topcoat, works well for me! good luck! :)
the only way my nail polish stays on is if i go to the shop.
put a clear cote on before and after.
dunt bite your nails

  • What colors of nail polish (specifically) are you allowed to wear with your USAF uniform?

    I have read that a ';complimentary'; color is allowed but what colors are complimentary? I know that there are obvious ';fad'; colors.What colors of nail polish (specifically) are you allowed to wear with your USAF uniform?
    AFI 36-2903


    Nail Polish will be single color (compliment skin tone) and French manicure.


    Nail Polish will not have decorations; fingernails will not


    exceed 1/4 inch past the tip of the finger; will not wear nail polish that distinctly contrast with their complexion, that detract from the uniform, or that are extreme. Some examples of extreme colors include but are not limited to, purple, gold, blue, black, bright(fire-engine) red, and fluorescent color.What colors of nail polish (specifically) are you allowed to wear with your USAF uniform?
    When I was in, back in prehistoric time, you could wear clear or a light, fingernail colored, pink. French manicure would be acceptable also, since it looks like fingernails. No red, glitter, black, green......
    usually for every day work purposes clear and french manicure is all.
    Just when I think MetalAirman has NO clue what a reg is, or how to read one, he comes up with this!! He is 100% correct on this one, though. By the way, MetalAirman, don't you have anything better to do than sit in the break room and play on the computer?!?! GET TO WORK!!!!
    Best to wear neutral/clear while in work uniform. In some social setting's while in Dress uniform it is acceptable to wear complimentary colors.





    My advice is to ask other females who have been in the unit for some time, as they can give you the ';Low Down';, so to speak.
    Red, Ya baby go with red,


    with BRIGHT RED lips.....HOT





    haha,


    Never mind..


    Go with a french or clear, the you wont stick out to much......





    Good LUCK

    How long does nail polish last before it expires?

    I have many nail polishes that I've used only a handful of times. I was wondering how long will they last before having to be tossed out?How long does nail polish last before it expires?
    do not put them in the fridge it ruins thenm and a year is about as long as you should keep them i am a nail tech and i change mine out yearlyHow long does nail polish last before it expires?
    I usually only keep them about a year. I used to keep them longer but they get all gummy and it takes forever for them to dry... I say the newer the better. Good thing they're cheap, though... I have throw out many bottles that have been barely touched!
    When the color separates in the bottle is is bad.
    I don't think ever i have some from like 8 years ago, that still works fine, it smells a little funny though! i wouldn't throught it out if i were u!
    i'm not sure how long it lasts, but to make it last longer you can refrigerate it!

    How can i make my nails shine more brightly without using nail polish?

    My nails are becoming yellowish. Need good suggestions.How can i make my nails shine more brightly without using nail polish?
    Try lightly sanding your nails then buff them. I promise you this works because I do this a few times a month. Once you have the top of the nail smooth, buff until you start to see a little shimmer. Everyone thinks I use clear polish for the shine, but it's all natural.





    Happy Buffing!How can i make my nails shine more brightly without using nail polish?
    I'm sure you can tell by now, but get a buffer. They can be found by the nail stuff in the cosmetic section of stores and pharmacies.





    Also, there are kiosks in the mall that sell that kind of stuff. I have a kit from there and it works great. This is where it's from http://www.obeyyourbody.com/Catalog_11.h鈥?/a>
    use a buffer. It will smooth out the ridges and make them shine.
    use a buffer! hope this helps!
    sally-hansen has a great line..check it out
    moisturizer


    works really well


    and leaves ur hands soft aswell lol
    Get a buffer! They will look even shinier than if you put poish on them!
    Try using a multi-nail buffer. You can go to CVS, Duane Reade, Rite-Aid, Pathmark, or any other drugstore.
    eat plenty ov fresh fruits!


    aswell as makin them look nicer, it helps them to grow
    Use this nail kit, it's a little expensive but gives great results. Your nails will shine and look lots better! The moisturizer helps too cause it keeps your cuticles looking good :) Good luck!
    use a 4-way buffer to make it file the nail, make it smooth and make it shine, you can get it from most stores in the nail care section.
