Nail artwork is an innovative way to coloring, decorate, enhance, and embellish the fingernails. It is a kind of artwork that you can do on toenails and fingernails, after manicures or pedicures usually. A manicure and a pedicure are beauty treatments that trim, shape, and polish the nail. Often these procedures take away the cuticles and soften the skin across the fingernails or toenails.The exact source of nail treatments is unclear, since it appears to have originated in various parts of the world around the same time. In ancient Egypt, from 5000 B.C. to 3000 B.C., women would dye their toenails with henna to indicate cultural seductiveness and position. Women of the low class wore pastel and neutral shades, as the upper classes deep wore, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, colored their nails with dark and green kohl, an ancient plastic. To prepare for warfare, warriors of Babylon spent time having their toenails prepared, hair curled and acquired other similar beauty treatments. As in ancient Egypt, nail color indicated one's status, black for noblemen and green for the normal man. Around the same time, 3000 B.C., the first toe nail polish started in ancient China. It had been made from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, veg dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese language dipped their fingernails in this blend for several time or left it to dry. Colors ranged from green to red, with regards to the mixture of the ingredients. Through the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple toenail polish with gold and silver dust on the nails showing their social status.
