Can nail polish be applied every day? Will nail polish cause cancer?

Due to its ingredients, nail polish will have a pungent smell when applied. Of course, this smell is relatively harmless to the human body. So, can nail polish be applied every day?

It is best not to use nail polish every day, and there must be one day a week when you don't apply nail polish. Because the surface of the nail has a dense layer of tiny holes, if it is covered with nail polish every day, it will cause poor ventilation and hinder the "breathing" of the nail. The consequence of this is that the nail will become numb and swollen, and the finger sensitivity will decrease. In addition, some girls are sensitive to the ingredients of nail polish. If the skin is repeatedly exposed to nail polish, it is easy to cause contact dermatitis.

Frequent application of nail polish is potentially carcinogenic because nail polish contains a large amount of organic solvents. Organic solvents are a very important raw material or medium in the manufacturing industry, but they are also toxic to the human body. Many organic solvents are volatile, so nail polish has a strong odor, so organic solvents can cause poisoning when inhaled into the human body through the nose. Of course, if the amount is relatively small, it will not cause poisoning. However, long-term inhalation can cause great damage to the body's organs and nerves, so nail polish is potentially carcinogenic.

If you want to apply nail polish well, hand care and nail care before applying nail polish are crucial. You may wish to take care of your hand skin before applying nail polish. For example, apply aloe vera gel, milk, etc. on your entire hand, then wrap your hand with a thin plastic glove, apply it for 10 minutes, and then wash your hand. This can effectively replenish the moisture of the hand skin and avoid dry skin problems.

1. Keep the nail surface clean before applying nail polish: Before applying nail polish, the moisture on your hands needs to be wiped off to avoid bubbles when applying nail polish or causing the nail polish to not fit the nails completely and fall off easily.

2. Do not apply hard pressure on the nail polish brush: Applying hard pressure on the nail polish will easily cause the nail polish to be uneven. You should gently stroke the nail surface, and apply a little more force to separate the nails closer to the tip of the nail.
