Piggy Paint Review and Giveaway (Closed)

June 24, 2009 By Crystal 133 Comments

With school being out and Summer is full force we are spending a lot more time together outside and doing things we don’t normally do because of time restraints. When I was asked to review Piggy Paint, I was thrilled because I knew my daughter Taylor was going to be excited. You see, Taylor is a self-proclaimed “Diva” and she loves everything pretty! Her hair is always brushed and usually in an up-do, her clothes always match and she is always wearing lip gloss. That’s all nice and cool, but Taylor is 6! She just turned 6 to be exact. Where has my little girl gone? It’s like she’s 6 going on 16…

piggy paint polish Piggy Paint was founded by Melanie Hurley who is a mother of two little girls. They sound a lot like Taylor by the way! Her little girls loved to have their fingernails painted but Melanie did not feel comfortable with the traditional children’s nail polishes. As moms, we know that children put their hands or fingers in their mouths more than we would like but the thought of possible ingestion of the nail polish is enough to make you crazy. Not only was Melanie worried about ingestion of the nail polish but the smell of the nail polish alone was enough to make her light-headed.

Piggy Paint is a non-flamable, water-based polish made with all natural ingredients. It is free of formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates, biphenyl A, ethyl acetate and acetone. Not only is Piggy Paint safe for your children it is also safe for our environment.

piggy paint girls rule The kind folks over at Piggy Paint sent us the Girls Rule nail polish and nail polish remover. And I’m sure you can imagine how Taylor reacted when I showed her what we received. Her favorite colors are pink and purple so the Girls Rule color was perfect.

Taylor and I had a chance to just be girls and we sat down and I painted her nails. We had a blast and we both enjoyed the time together without the boys.

I love the fact that I can feel safe with allowing Taylor to have her nails painted. She absolutely loves it and it makes her feel pretty. I enjoy seeing her face light up when I started to glide the color over her nails. I was a little hesitant thinking there could be a nail polish that didn’t have a smell. But just like they say, it’s odorless. How cool is that? I also love how easily the polish glides on and how fast the polish dries. I was able to do two coats with no waiting for the polish to dry between coats.

I am very pleased with my experience with Piggy Paint and I look forward to telling all of Taylor’s friends about it.
