Nail fine art is an innovative way to paint, decorate, enhance, and embellish the claws. It really is a kind of artwork that you can do on toenails and fingernails, usually after manicures or pedicures. A manicure and a pedicure are beauty treatments that trim, shape, and polish the nail. Often these methods remove the cuticles and soften the skin across the nails.The exact origin 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 social seductiveness and status. Women of the lower class wore pastel and neutral shades, as the upper classes deep wore, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, painted their toenails with green and black kohl, an ancient cosmetic. To get ready for war, warriors of Babylon put in hours having their fingernails prepared, locks acquired and curled other similar beauty treatments. Just as 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 toenail polish originated in ancient China. It had been made from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, vegetable dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese dipped their toenails in this concoction for several hours or left it on to dried up. Colors ranged from red to red, depending on the combination of the ingredients. Through the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple toe nail polish with silver and gold dust on the nails showing their social position.
