*contest closed* Piggy Paint *Giveaway*

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 Posted by The Mom Jen

Having girls means makeup, doing their hair, and painting nails of course! One of the few things we dislike about normal store-bought polishes is that they stink! The same goes for nail polish remover, it truly gives us all headaches, even the boys who are just innocent bystanders!

Often what happens is we let the polish just fade off or paint over old polish. We were recently introduced to Piggy Paint, a mom-invented product that takes the stink out of polishing nails and is the safe choice for children! Here's what the founder of Piggy Paint says...
My name is Melanie Hurley, founder of Piggy Paint. I am a stay-at-home mom with two very fancy little girls, ages 2 and 4, who love to have their fingernails painted. I've always hated the thought of my kiddos putting their hands in their mouths after I painted their nails with traditional kid polishes. Not only did the ingestion of the chemicals worry me, but the smell nearly left me light-headed after painting two sets of fingernails and toenails.

One day while we were painting nails over a foam plate, my daughter dropped a glob of her solvent-based polish onto the plate. Shortly after, the paint began to bubble and ate through the plate. I looked in dismay at the hole in the plate and decided to test all of her 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, I decided that any flammable substance that could eat through foam was unacceptable for my children's fingernails, which would inevitably end up in their mouths.

My quest was on, and Piggy Paint was born. As you may have guessed, our polish is NOT flammable and sits beautifully on the unaffected foam. We hope you enjoy this water-based polish that is specially formulated of natural ingredients. Finally, a kid-friendly polish without the accompanying drawbacks of traditional polishes. It is free of formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates, biphenyl A, ethyl acetate and acetone... and made in the USA!

Did you know how unsafe regular polish was?!

Why is Piggy Paint Nail Polish the safe nail polish choice for children?
  • Non-toxic
  • Odorless
  • Water-based formula
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Fun, vibrant colors
  • Dries to a hard, durable finish

Why is Piggy Paint Nail Polish Remover the best choice for your little girl?

  • Safe
  • Odorless
  • Made from natural ingredients
  • No Acetone
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Biodegradable
Our Take: The polish dries to a hard finish and I was so impressed with the lack of scent from both the polish and the polish remover. No more headaches for us, and I can trust the girls to use the product without my close supervision!
