Product of the week Plastic-free nail polish

Regular nail polish contains a substance called polymer, which is a fancy name for plastic, not to mention the potential toxins that are added to some formulas to enhance their durability. But not to worry, I have a solution! SOPHi is a virtually odourless, non-toxic and biodegradable nail polish, with a revolutionary system for maximum durability.

This advanced water-based formula leaves your nails healthy, and does not cause them to yellow or become brittle. Every ingredient is biodegradable, with no traces or residues left behind, thus it would make an excellent addition to your mulch pile. This advanced formula is about 75% water, yet it dries to a hard finish. Right: SOPHi Nail Polish, €11.99, see reuzi.ie
