Description

EXAMPLES

(1) The invention will now be illustrated by means of the following examples.

Example 1

(2) A base coating composition according to the invention is prepared by solubilizing 40% by weight of polyamide resin (VERSAMID 930 BASF) in 60% by weight of a 50/50 mixture of absolute ethanol and of n-heptane.

(3) Make-Up

(4) A base coating is deposited on the nails by applying the thereby prepared composition. After drying, a layer of conventional colored varnish composition based on nitrocellulose is deposited on the base coating.

(5) Make-Up Removal

(6) After drying, the colored varnish composition layer as a make-up is removed with acetone, without altering the base coating. Next, said base coating is as for it removed with a 50/50 ethanol/heptane mixture.

Example 2
