Common questions

Is Essie Nail Polish Licorice healthy?

Essie Nail Polish Licorice scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Essie Nail Polish Licorice?

Essie Nail Polish Licorice lists 45 ingredients, starting with Ethyl Acetate, n-Butyl Acetate, Nitrocellulose, Tosylamide/Epoxy Resin and Trimethyl Pentanyl Diisobutyrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Essie Nail Polish Licorice contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Essie Nail Polish Licorice’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Essie Nail Polish Licorice?

Essie Nail Polish Licorice has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Essie Nail Polish Licorice compare to other nail care?

At 15/100 Essie Nail Polish Licorice scores worse than most nail care we have scored. A higher-scoring option in nail care is Spectrum Beauty Lab Nail Recovery Fungus Treatment at 100/100.
