Nail fine art is an innovative way to coloring, decorate, enhance, and embellish the fingernails or toenails. 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 methods remove the cuticles and soften your skin around the nails.The exact source of toenail treatments is unclear, since it appears to have originated in different parts of the global world around the same time. In ancient Egypt, from 5000 B.C. to 3000 B.C., women would dye their nails with henna to point public seductiveness and status. Women of the low class wore pastel and neutral shades, while the upper classes wore deep, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, painted their nails with green and charcoal kohl, an ancient beauty. To get ready for war, warriors of Babylon put in hours having their fingernails or toenails prepared, hair got and curled other similar beauty treatments. As in ancient Egypt, nail color indicated one's status, black for noblemen and green for the common man. Around the same time, 3000 B.C., the first toe nail polish started in ancient China. It was made from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, veg dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese dipped their toenails in this concoction for several time or left it to dry out. Colors ranged from red to red, depending on the combination of the ingredients. Through the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple toenail polish with gold and silver dust on the nails to show their social status.
