Why Choose The Hema-free, HPMA-free, TPO-free, and Di-hema-free Gel Polish?

Why are more and more countries beginning to require the use of nail gel polish? Follow BOZLIN to learn more details.

Using gel polish that is HEMA-free, TPO-free, HPMA-free, and Di-HEMA-free is primarily aimed at minimizing health risks and enhancing safety, particularly for individuals with sensitivities. Here's a breakdown of the reasons:

1️⃣ Reduction of Allergenic Risk:
HEMA (Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate): A common allergen in gel polishes, HEMA can cause contact dermatitis, especially with improper application that exposes skin to uncured resin. HEMA-free products reduce this risk.

2️⃣ HPMA (Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate):
Structurally similar to HEMA, HPMA can trigger cross-reactivity in those already sensitive to methacrylates, making its exclusion beneficial.

3️⃣ Di-HEMA (Di-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate):
Though larger and less penetrative, it can still cause allergic reactions in sensitized individuals. Avoiding it broadens safety.

4️⃣ Alternative Photoinitiators:
TPO (Diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethyl benzoyl)phosphine Oxide):
As a photoinitiator, TPO aids in curing under UV light. However, some TPO derivatives may cause irritation or allergies. TPO-free formulas use alternative initiators, potentially reducing irritation risks.

5️⃣ Target Audience:
These formulations cater to clients with sensitive skin, existing allergies, or professionals seeking to minimize liability from adverse reactions. They align with the growing demand for "hypoallergenic" and "safer" cosmetics.

6️⃣ Regulatory and Market Trends:
Compliance with stricter regulations in certain regions and meeting consumer preferences for clean beauty products drive the adoption of such formulations.

7️⃣ Performance Considerations:
While early alternatives may have compromised durability, advancements in cosmetic chemistry now BOZLIN offer HEMA/TPO/HPMA/Di-HEMA-free polishes that maintain performance, ensuring good adhesion and longevity without allergens.

🔚🔚Note: Even with these safer formulations, proper application (avoiding skin contact) and removal (minimizing nail damage) remain crucial. Always patch-test products, as individual sensitivities can vary.
