My five year old daughter LOVES to have her nails painted. It’s her favorite thing. If she had her way, every single finger and toe would be painted a different color. I also find it is a great way to get some mommy/daughter bonding time in. It’s a fun “no boys allowed” activity in our house. I love how excited she gets, but I don’t really love the chemicals found in nail polish. She is past the point of sucking on her fingers, but she’s a kid and her fingers end up in her mouth plenty.
I have heard really great things about Piggy Paint, so I was thrilled to get the chance to try it out for myself. The tagline is Natural as Mud, and I love it. It is non-toxic and there was no odor that I could detect. Make sure you stick around until the end, because I have a discount code and I will be giving away some Piggy Paint to one lucky reader.
Nail art on small girls can be a little tricky. Their nails are so teeny tiny. I’ve found that I am the most successful when I keep the designs simple. Below, I did a photo collage of the steps to create some cute and simple nail art with Piggy Paint.
Supplies: Piggy Paint, Blow Dryer, Toothpicks
1. Paint Base coat and blow dry on low heat for 1 minute. That’s about two rounds of the ABC song.
2. Draw flower shapes, dots, hearts,etc on with a toothpick.
3. Add any other colors, like the inside of the flowers and blow dry again to achieve maximum chip resistance.
Here’s a little better view of her nails.
She really loves her pretty nails. She is already making big plans for all the other colors and designs that she wants.
Piggy Paint also has a special nail polish remover too. I hate using acetone based polish removers, they are just so harsh! I am definitely going to look into getting some of that. Piggy Paint is available in select Walmart stores as well as walmart.com. Remember that Piggy Paint isn’t just for little girls. It’s great for pregnant women as well as anyone who wants an earth friendly way to paint their nails.
Good news! Now through April 30, 2013, you can get 15% off your order at PiggyPaint.com. It’s simple, just enter code: “PiggyFun” at checkout.
It’s giveaway time. One lucky duck will win a Toe-tally Fancy 3 polish kit from Piggy Paint. That’s a $24.99 value. This giveaway is going to have a quick turn-around time, so make sure you enter quick!
I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Piggy Paint. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for participating.
