1, there is a chemical in nail polish called phthalate, which has a high content and mainly softens it. This substance will enter the human body through the respiratory system and skin. If used in excess, it will increase the risk of breast cancer in women.
2. A survey shows that nearly 90% of nail polish has no Chinese logo on the packaging and label. The most prominent problem of these unqualified nail polishes is the use of prohibited pigments, which contain a large number of fluorescent agents that may cause cancer. In addition, many skin polishes and nail enhancers used in nail art are unknown and may contain toxic substances.
3. Because nails are easy to absorb foreign substances, long-term use of nail polish with excessive heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, mercury and benzene may lead to chronic poisoning and even cancer.

Many people suffer from onychomycosis because they often get manicures! Every summer and autumn nail season, the department will receive more than ten onychomycosis patients every day, and sometimes there will be scenes of waiting in line. In fact, nails have a layer of nail surface film, which is a part of the skin and has the function of breathing and protection. If you often apply nail polish, your nails can't "breathe". In addition, the nail surface film needs to be worn off when manicure, and its surface and skin will be damaged. Once nails get sick, viruses and fungi will take advantage of it and cause lesions.
When manicure, after removing the nail epidermis, the nail matrix loses its protection, which is easy to make the subcutaneous tissue red and inflamed. Frequent manicure may cause a vicious circle, which will eventually lead to redness and swelling of the skin around the nails, serious infection, rapid suppuration and paronychia. If it recurs, it will become chronic paronychia, and the disease will cause blood infectious diseases.
