A few weeks ago, Recycla won a giveaway at Trying to Be Greener, which is the Green Mommy’s main blog. The prize was a gift certificate to Piggy Paint — safe nail polish for children. Recycla’s daughters are 8 and 10 and they were THRILLED by this turn of events. They looked at the color choices — so many amazing, fabulous, wonderful colors! — and decided on the Little Miss Firecracker set. The pretties arrived last week and, suffice it to say, last Friday night was mani/pedi night at Recycla’s Eco Warrior lair.
Piggy Paint colors are a lot of fun and there’s a whole rainbow from which to choose. But there are four reasons why Recycla really likes this nail polish:
- Piggy Paint is non-toxic, odorless, and kid friendly.
- Piggy Paint goes on easily and isn’t messy or too sloppy.
- Piggy Paint dries quickly, which is great for impatient young ladies (and their mothers).
- Piggy Paint lasts for a while and doesn’t chip off as soon as those freshly-painted toes hit the ground running.
Want to try Piggy Paint? The Eco Women are giving away the Little Miss Firecracker set set (pictured at right), courtesy of the nice folks at Piggy Paint. Just leave a comment here from now until Monday evening and the Eco Women will randomly choose a name. You don’t need to have children to enter — Recycla can promise you that Piggy Paint looks equally awesome on adult toes too!

I LOVE this!! I would love to polish my nails (the poor piggies haven’t seen anything dramatic since pre-children!!!) in an eco-happy way
I’m so glad I stumbled (not literally!) across your blog
Ooo! Ooo! Pick me! : )
I’m totally digging trying out their green polish.
I would love to try these, both for me and for my daughter. Her birthday is coming up and I know this little present would get a squeal out of her!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I know the perfect little girl for these paints. Even if I don’t win, so glad to find out about them so I can pass on this information to the little girl’s mom.
Fun colors! My daughter would dig this!
I love that pink is just one of the many colors offered now.
Great idea; I’m going to get some for my Grands. I always do the girls toenails when they come here!
My granddaughter just turned 3 – she’s a big girl now – and this would be perfect for her. And me!
What a fun treat! Even if I’m not a winner, I’m totally buying this for the little girlfolk in our lives here!
I have two daughters and we all love to do each others nails weekly! Count us in!
