Yes. Most nail polish and nail polish removers contain harsh chemicals that can damage and dry the nail and surrounding skin. Also the fumes of these products are unhealthy.

No i dont think so i use nail polish all the time to do my tips and nails. I wouldnt recommend normal nail polish remover tho when u buy a nail poilsh remover buy ACETONE FREE as theis doesnt take off a certain layer of skin or some thing i read said dont use normal remover always buy acetone free so i do and i have long nails and they are good nick *touch wood* I do believe that nail polish needs 2 be taken off though as nails are layers of skin and it will need 2 breathe like skin does when u apply make up so just make sure u take it off every week and leave it for a few days if your concerned.

No. Polish is not bad for your nails. It will actually help your nails be somewhat stronger than without it. It acts like a barrier.
Make sure you use a good base coat and top coat. The base coat will help to keep your nails from yellowing from the polish and the top coat can help the polish last longer.

i dont think nail polish is bad for ur nails (unless u use it very often with nail polish remover), but they would be better off without it. one time i painted my nails everyweek for like whole school year and by the end of the year, my nails were never the same.

If you leave nail polish on too long it can damage your nails.
Just make sure to remove it every once and awhile, to make sure it not only looks good, but it is good for your nails as well!

from my experience with it...no. but it could possible damage your if you paint them too much. nail polish remover does hurt nails (at least my nails) so get the kind with no acetone even though it works the best.
p.s. fake nails are really bad for your nails. it took two weeks for all the glue to come off my nails after my fake ones fell off

Yes because you're nails need oxygen. It's not really bad for them but you shouldn't paint them all the time. I kept putting nailpolish on for like a month without letting my nails breath in between. Like the second I took nailpolish off I just put on a new color and then they turned yellow and it tok like a month to get better.

Not really, but polish remover is - it dries them out as does polish to a degree. Leave them bared and just nicely buffed once in a while.

hi,
no! the nail poslishes are mostly made with fibres and vitamins . Your nails are made of sulfur and proteins so with any nail color you need a base underneath because ur nails might turn yellow afterwards with the colour! as long as you protect your nails with a nice base, it's all good and very feminin on your nails!
take care
