Compliance with EU Regulations: HEMA-Free Nail Gel
Date: November 13, 2020, HEMA FREE NAIL GEL
In a recent development, the European Union (EU) released Amendment 2020/1682, restricting the use of film-forming agents, namely Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (HEMA) and Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide (DHEMATMHDC), in nail products.
According to the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS), applying nail products containing HEMA and DHEMATMHDC directly on the nail without contact with the surrounding skin is unlikely to pose sensitization risks.
However, these substances are considered weak to moderately sensitizing, and there is a risk of sensitization if misused, abused, or if the product is inadvertently applied around the skin of the nail.
Recognizing the potential risks associated with misuse or improper use during the nail product manufacturing process, precision is paramount to ensure the health and safety of individuals.
It is crucial to differentiate between professional cosmetic use and consumer use, with appropriate warnings on product packaging. In our manufacturing processes, we have proactively avoided the use of these substances and obtained safety testing reports in accordance with EU regulations.
Although HEMA is known for providing high hardness, adhesion, and wear resistance in the usage feel of nail gel, researchers have innovatively introduced organic silicon and modified acrylic resin during the synthesis of water-based polyurethane.
The introduction of silicon-oxygen bonds enhances the structural strength of the resin, resulting in nail polish with superior adhesion, smudge resistance, and water resistance.
While this composition significantly increases the production cost of nail polish, it ensures the creation of a satisfying product.
With variations in the market for gel nail polishes, not only in terms of saturation, odor, and user experience, but also in terms of raw material composition and formulation, AULRO recommends selecting products based on individual needs.
