Say good-bye to harsh, smelly chemicals and hello to Piggy Paint Nail Polish...it's as Natural as Mud! One day while Melanie Hurley, founder of Piggy Paint, was painting nails with her daughter over a foam plate, her daughter dropped a glob of solvent-based polish onto the plate. Shortly after, the paint began to bubble and “ate” through the plate. Melanie looked in dismay at the hole in the plate and decided to test all of her daughter's other “kid” polishes on the foam. Within minutes, ALL of the solvent-based polishes began to bubble and eventually left big holes in the plate. From that day on, Melanie decided that any flammable substance that could eat through foam was unacceptable for her children’s fingernails, which would inevitably end up in their mouths. Melanie's quest was on, and Piggy Paint was born. As you may have guessed, Melanie's Piggy Paint polish is NOT flammable and sits beautifully on the unaffected foam. Melanie hopes you enjoy this water-based polish that is specially formulated of natural ingredients. Finally, a kid-friendly/pet-friendly polish without the accompanying drawbacks of traditional polishes. Piggy Paint is free of formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates, biphenyl A, ethyl acetate and acetone... and made in the USA! Why is Piggy Paint Nail Polish the safe nail polish? Non-toxic Low Odor Water-based formula Hypoallergenic Fun, vibrant colors Dries to a hard, durable finish Cruelty-free Safe for use during Pregnancy! 5-Free: No Formaldehyde, Dibutyl Phthalate, Toluene, Camphor, or Formaldehyde Resin Since most young children are squirmy during the drying process of any polish, Piggy Paint suggests singing songs to pass the time. Two rounds of the “ABC’s” should make 60 seconds pass by very quickly. Make “Piggy Painting” a bonding experience for you and your child. Do I have to use a blow dryer to dry her nails? No, but it is recommended for maximum chip resistance. Since Piggy Paint is water-based and does not contain harsh chemicals, it takes longer for its ultimate hardness to be reached. The blow dryer just speeds up this process. Another alternative is to wait and polish your child’s nails after bath time, before they go to bed. This will allow the polish to cure overnight. Piggy Paint As a Learning Tool: Fine Motor Skills Let your child paint your fingernails or toenails. If you’re worried about it looking (well, like a child painted your nails), opt for the toenails…you can always put socks on in public! This helps with her fine-motor skills and gives her a chance to exert her independence. Color Names Are you trying to teach your child color names? Paint her nails with the specific color you’re working on (such as red) and declare it a “Red Day”. All day long, point out objects in her environment that match her nails, and encourage her to do the same. Wear red clothes, add red foods to mealtime and use a bath color tablet to make her bath water red. Once she’s mastered that color, paint her piggies a new color. Patterns Recognizing different types of patterns is a hard concept learn for children to learn, so why not put patterns right at their fingertips? For example, if you’re working on simple patterns, alternate blue and yellow “Piggy Paint” on her fingers. As you go through the day, help her to make patterns with her toys, M&M‘s, crayons, beads…use your creativity. Have her refer to her f
