Beginning Sept. 1, the European Union has banned an ingredient commonly found in gel nail polish.

The banned substance, TPO (trimethylbenzoyl diphenylphosphine oxide), gives nails a super glossy sheen and a quick dry time under UV or LED light. However, it has been deemed toxic in the EU after several studies have shown that it can cause fertility issues and adversely affect reproductive health.

Need a little help with this one. Just how drunk does one have to be to screw up using a bottle of nail polish so bad it effects ones fertility? Where would you be putting the stuff?
