'Base Coat' is the name of a new non-toxic nail bar in downtown LA that's putting a premium on health and wellness when it comes to beauty. While there are many nail salons that promise to offer completely "all-natural" services, Base Coat refuses to offer gels and acrylics, because these types of nail treatments can be highly toxic to both clients and nail technicians. As such, Base Coat's formulas are free from the six most common chemicals found in nail polishes, including those that have been linked to major health problems such as cancer and asthma.
To complement the non-toxic beauty services that can be had at Base Coat, the salon also offers a range of healthy refreshments such as tonics, mocktails, juices and teas.
