Abstract
A phthalate-free long-lasting nail polish enamel composition consisting of a film-forming agent, solvents, one or more colorants, one or more suspending agents, adhesion promoters, and plasticizers selected from the group consisting of trioctyl trimellitate, butylphthalimide isopropylphthalimide, benzyl benzoate, dioctyl malate, dioctyl sebacate, and mixtures thereof is provided. The nail composition is optionally free of any toluene-containing components, depending upon the desired application.
