Review: Piggy Paint

We recently had the chance to try out Piggy Paint nail polish and their Natural as Mud Nail Polish Remover.


Piggy Paint's polishes are a mixture of water and other natural ingredients. Likewise, the Natural as Mud polish remover is made from natural ingredients with no acetone, is odorless, and also biodegradable.

Now Piggy Paint nail polish is geared towards little girls, but if you are pregnant or TTC and avoiding most cosmetics because of the chemicals, you may want to check out Piggy Paint too.

I decided to try it out on me first, since I'm one of those overly paranoid protective kind of Mommas. I had to remove the polish I already had on my nails, so I tried out the polish remover first. Let's just say it took me awhile to get the polish off. If for some reason you have "adult" polish on your child's hands, you'd be better off using regular nail polish remover to get it off. It works great on removing Piggy Polishes however!


The shade of Piggy Paint we tried out was the Tea Party for Two. It's a vibrant blue color, PERFECT for Summer fun! I've got to tell you that as a Mom, the colors they have in their Piggy Paint collection are just perfect. Hooker reds (LOL) are not available here- the colors are appropriate for little girls of any age. Pale pinks, funky yellow, shimmery silver, even gasp - black - Piggy Paints is after my own heart here! Here's what it looked like on my nails:


See, Moms can wear it too, and this color is totally adorable on little chubby piggies too!!!

Now I only used one coat to test it out, because let's face it, with the younger kids it's harder to get them to hold still. Piggy Paints, even with multiple coats, dry in about 60 seconds! I applied it on me and two minutes later I was back to doing things around the house, so you don't have to worry about toddlers smearing it all over your furniture when you're done.

So my family gives this product ten piggies up for it's adorableness and safeness. I'm looking forward to Piggy Paints' polishes hanging around my house for many years to come.
