“What brand do you recommend?”.
This is a question seen many times a day on social media. It is most often asked by nail pros who have started experiencing an allergic reaction (on themselves or their clients) to the brand they use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The question is asked and it gets loads of answers! Often just the brand name with no reason why it is being recommended, or with a  comment like \u201cI\u2019ve used it for 2 years and had no problems\u201d. Sometimes there is a recommendation for a HEMA-free or a hypoallergenic brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This and just a brand name are really not helpful at all!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is ONLY one solution to an allergy problem and that is getting a dermatological patch test with a focus on \u2018acrylates\u2019. That will identify exactly what is causing the reaction, and only then should the research start for products that do not contain the specific ingredients in any % at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEMA is so often named as the cause of an allergy. But HEMA is just one of many acrylates that can cause a problem all of which can be the cause as they are mostly known allergens. However, those with a HEMA allergy are more likely to have a problem with others, too, so an individual can end up with a long list or even ALL acrylates. This would be a \u2018game over\u2019 as even gloves may not be enough!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACRYLATES: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This is a family of chemicals that are in all UV cured and L&P products. But they are NOT in traditional nail polishes (with the exception of some \u2018long wear\u2019 top coats). Acrylates cannot be avoided when using UV gels and L&P, so it all depends on which acrylates are causing the problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can read as many labels and SDS as you like; you can try as many brands as you like (which is expensive and so often a waste of money). However, until you know what you are allergic to, it is a waste of time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
