Now to be totally honest, I haven’t had a mani/pedi in years–not professionally anyway. I tend to prefer to avoid some of these tricky situations by taking things into my own hands, like doing my own nails (and coloring my own hair–eeks!), especially since I tend to be pretty hard on my hands and chip away even the most loyal of polishes quite quickly.

But whether you’re doing your nails at home, or having a nice little break and getting a mani/pedi, fabulous nails can also be gluten-free nails!

For years I’ve known about the wonderful gluten-free Nail Paints of PeaceKeeper. And now there are several other players in the world of gluten-free nail polishes that are also free of toluene, formaldehyde and dibutyl phthalate. Here are a few more nail companies that are gluten-free, and greener than most:
PeaceKeeper

Zoya Nail Polish

Refreshingly Free

Acquarella Water Color Nail Polish

Honeybee Gardens WaterColors NonPeel Nail Polish

If you do get a professional mani/pedi and opt to bring one of these better brands instead of using one of their in-stock colors, be sure to also bring in your own body cream. Some nail salons offer hand or foot massages with a body lotion, but because it may contain ingredients that you’re not cool with, it couldn’t hurt to have your own on hand!

PeaceKeeper natural, gluten-fee nail paints are back!

I’m sorry for their disappearance, but thanks to a healthy supply of Peacekeeper paints at Drugstore.com, Naturally Dah’ling once again links to one of the best nail companies on the planet!

So whether you paint at home or bring your own polish with you to the manicurist, toss out toxic formulas in exchange for these healthier, long-lasting, gluten-free nail beauties.
