Nail artwork 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 fingernails and toenails, 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 your skin around the toenails.The exact origin of toenail treatments is unclear, since it appears to have originated in various parts of the global world around the same time. In ancient Egypt, from 5000 B.C. to 3000 B.C., women would dye their toenails with henna to point cultural position and seductiveness. Women of the low class wore pastel and neutral shades, as the upper classes wore deep, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, decorated their nails with green and black color kohl, an ancient cosmetic. To get ready for war, warriors of Babylon spent hours having their claws prepared, wild 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 nail polish started in ancient China. It had been created from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, vegetable dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese dipped their claws in this blend for several time or remaining it to dry out. Colors ranged from green to red, with respect to the mixture of the ingredients. Through the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple toe nail polish with silver and gold dust on their nails showing their social status.
