Color Treat Birthstone Collection Nail Polish vs Basecoat & Sealer Nail Polish: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) / Solvent inhalation, Phthalates (plasticizers), Heavy metals in pigments (lead, cadmium, chromium) and Nail plate damage from prolonged contact on the Julep and not on the Piggy Paint.
• We flag Heavy metals in organic pigments, Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from solvents and Bacterial or fungal growth in water-based formula on the Piggy Paint and not on the Julep.
• The Julep is nitrocellulose, resins, plasticizers (standard nail lacquer) where the Piggy Paint is Water-based organic pigments and plant-derived resins, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
• The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Piggy Paint is the one to buy.
• We are less certain about the Julep grade, at 45% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.
