A Little History About Nail Polish

Nail varnish comes a long way in history from 3000 B.C. Some people say it was from 5000 B.C but i don't think that's true. Nail polish was first found by the Indian's  because they would apply henna to there nails to dye it a certain color usually red. Then there were the Ancient Egyptian's and the Ancient Chinese that would make nail varnish out of bee's wax, Arabic gum and camels hair as the brush. But only the wealthy or high rank people were allowed to apply dark colored nail polish. If some one that was a low rank applied dark colored nail polish they were killed, only light colors were allowed. If you want some one to thank then thank Ford for carrying the tradition of nail polish by the nitrocellulose he applied to his cars to let the paint last and not rust right away from rain. That's why "OLAY" made dish soap that leaves skin and nails strong and smooth and doesn't remove nail polish so easily and makes your skin moist not dry and flaky. Nail today is one of the most popular things on earth that will probably never lose popularity.
