Monday, April 17, 2017

Nail art work is an innovative way to paint, decorate, enhance, and embellish the nails. It is a kind of artwork that can be done 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 the cuticles are removed by these methods and soften the skin surrounding the toenails.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 fingernails or toenails with henna to point sociable seductiveness and position. Women of the low class wore neutral and pastel shades, while the upper classes wore deep, bright shades. In Babylonia, 3200 B.C., men, not women, colored their claws with green and black colored kohl, an ancient cosmetic. To get ready for battle, warriors of Babylon spent time having their claws prepared, mane acquired and curled other similar beauty treatments. Such 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 toe nail polish started in ancient China. It had been made from beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, vegetable dyes, and gum arabic. Chinese dipped their fingernails or toenails in this concoction for several time or still left it on to dry. Colors ranged from pink to red, with regards to the combination of the ingredients. Through the Zhou Dynasty, 600 B.C., royalty used this simple nail polish with gold and silver dust on the nails showing their social status.
