Q & A
Australian made SCOUT Nova Flores natural toxic free breathable and water permeable nail polish is inspired by Australian native flora, complemented by cosmetic science.
SCOUT was one of the first brands to introduce water permeable nail polish in Australia.
A safe nail polish formulation is free from potentially harmful chemicals and toxins present in conventional nail polish brands, such as Formaldehyde, DBP, Toluene, Formaldehyde Resin, Camphor, Benzophenone or Parabens.
SCOUT is considered the best breathable nail polish in Australia because it is free from the potentially toxic ingredients found in traditional nail polish, allows the nail bed to breathe, it is chip resistant and durable.
Formulated to be breathable and water permeable, it allows water and air to penetrate the polish and reach the nail bed.
Our breathable nail polish is free from the potentially toxic ingredients found in traditional nail polish.
Traditional nail polish can trap moisture and bacteria underneath, potentially leading to nail damage or infection. Water permeable nail polish allows for proper ventilation, reducing the risk of such issues and promoting healthier nails.
Breathable nail polish lasts and is chip and peel resistant.
It is a vegan and cruelty-free brand, meaning that its breathable nail polish does not contain any animal-derived ingredients and is not tested on animals.
The water permeable nail polish is formulated with natural and organic ingredients, which may be less irritating to sensitive skin.
SCOUT nail polish is packaged in recyclable bottles and boxes, making it eco-friendly.
Yes, SCOUT Australian nail polish comes in over 40 nail shades including reds, nudes, matte, cream and shimmer.

Yes, SCOUT breathable nail polish is formulated for natural nails but it can also be used on acrylic or gel nails.
SCOUT nail polish ingredients may be found here.
The SCOUT top and base coat contains a natural nail hardener - Celery Seed Extract.
Research shows Celery Seed Extract (Apium graveolens) helps strengthen and smooth out your nails, eliminate discolouration and keep your nails chip free for longer.
Celery Seed works by encouraging the production of essential nail elements - keratins and ceramides which deliver an improved nail structure to reduce visible ridges and encourage improved nail thickness, hydration and hardness.
Like all our nail polish, they are infused with Broccoli Seed Extract rich in Vitamins A, B, K, E and containing up to 100 times the antioxidant compounds of a Broccoli head, assists in moisturising and hydrating the nails through outstanding water retaining properties.
Bamboo Isoflavones deliver impressive nutrients to the nail, boosting resiliency against chips and scratches, while providing long term shine and more vibrant polish colours.
The addition of Camellia Seed Oil (natural antifungal) nourishes and hydrates the skin and cuticles.
Please consult your doctor regarding the use of cosmetics and nail polish during pregnancy.

SCOUT is the best water permeable nail polish in Australia and can be used in fingers and toe nails.
SCOUT is the best because it is an Australian made nail polish, safe to use, chip and peel resistant and comes in many classic and fashion trending colours.
SCOUT is ‘free from’ the same long list of chemicals quoted below by other Australian nail polish brands (about 10 - 20), some of which are not used in any nail polish.
