Polish your nails in shades of green
Although "green" might not be a fashionable hue for nails, one doesn't have to look too far for an eco-friendly polish. Commercial nail polish is known for its pungent odor during application and the sharp smell of the acetone required to cleanly remove it. The scents alone should alert us that there is something very wrong with the use of the product on our bodies but we do it anyway.
Fortunately there are phthalate, formaldehyde, toluene and acetone free products out there that don't smell bad and require only soap and water or a little rubbing alcohol to remove. All of the products that I found did have polyurethane in the ingredients list but these polishes are generally less toxic than what's at your local drugstore.
