Upolishi wezinzipho obulalayo!!!!

Akukhona nje kuphela ukuthi umbala muhle, kodwa ucwaningo olusha lubika ukuthi nakuba abakhiqizi be-nail polish beqala ukusika izithako ezinobuthi, amalebula emikhiqizweni yabo awanembile ngaso sonke isikhathi.

Ekuqaleni kwaleli khulu leminyaka, abakhiqizi be-nail polish baqala kancane kancane ukuqeda amakhemikhali amathathu anobuthi kusuka ku-nail polish: i-formaldehyde, i-toluene ne-dibutyl phthalate. Kodwa lawa makhemikhali athathelwe indawo emikhiqizweni eminingi enye into, i-triphenyl phosphate, nayo engaba nobuthi.

Ithimba labacwaningi libonise ocwaningweni lwalo, olwanyatheliswa ku-"Journal of Environmental Science and Technology", ukuthi i-European Union yavala ukusetshenziswa kwalesi sithako kuzimonyo ngo-2004.

Ithimba liphinde lathi i-US Food and Drug Administration idinga ukuthi izinkampani zibhale izithako nge-nail polish, kodwa ayidingi ukuthi umkhiqizo uhlolwe ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi uphephile yini ukusetshenziswa ngaphambi kokuba ufakwe emakethe. Abacwaningi bengeze ngokuthi amakhemikhali athile angafakwa ohlwini lwamalebula “njengamakha”, ngaphandle kokunikeza imininingwane eyengeziwe ngawo, ngenxa yezizathu zezimfihlo zemboni.

U-Anna Yang, umcwaningi oholayo wocwaningo, ovela ku-T. H. I-Chan Public Health” e-Boston, engxoxweni ne-"Reuters": "Kubaluleke kakhulu kubasebenzi be-salon, ngoba obunye balabu buthi buhlotshaniswa nezinkinga zempilo ezihlobene nokuzala, izinkinga ze-thyroid, ukukhuluphala kanye nomdlavuza."
