It is composed pigments that are suspended in a carrier solution. Pigments are primarily metal salts. However, some are made from plastics or even vegetable dyes. This all varies depending on the artists needs in that they typically compose and mix their own solution.

Majority are organic compositions, while other come from a family of compounds. From studies, it is known to be that some of these inks and colorants specifically may not be the best for our skin. If that was that case why would we continue to tattoo our bodies?

Here are some examples of these compounds in different inks (Not all compounds are listed. However, these are most commonly produced):

This polymer is then dissolved in a  solvent. When you apply the polish on, the solvent evaporates and the polymer forms a film. This applies to your everyday polish from a drugstore. ]]> 2021-06-01 16:43:40 UTC https://padlet.com/15732051/c8ctjii5xxshwmqo/wish/1576918132 15732051 https://padlet.com/15732051/c8ctjii5xxshwmqo/wish/1576953775 Pigments are either inorganic pigments (iron oxide) or organic (carbon-based) pigments. Pigments are not just limited to inorganic and organic pigments. 

This all factors into how well polishes work, and how one intends for them to work. With certain properties such as Benzophenone, Titanium Dioxide, Stearalkonium Chloride and Mica, the product varies widely. ]]> 2021-06-01 16:53:20 UTC https://padlet.com/15732051/c8ctjii5xxshwmqo/wish/1576953775 15732051 https://padlet.com/15732051/c8ctjii5xxshwmqo/wish/1576992041 Deodorants: 
- Body Odor
- Natural and avoid Chemicals
- Sensitive Skin

Antiperspirants:
- Those constantly sweating
- Prevent wet marks
- Hyperhidrosis ]]> 2021-06-01 17:04:04 UTC https://padlet.com/15732051/c8ctjii5xxshwmqo/wish/1576992041 15732051 https://padlet.com/15732051/c8ctjii5xxshwmqo/wish/1577002579 Deodorants fight against heavy odors and more. With that, they use cyclomethicones, which are fast drying compounds being used as solvents.

This is done by Aluminum or Zirconium-based compounds that form a cast to block perspiration from being able to escape. This can break, thus, using an antiperspirant regularly.
