Safer Pedicures for Clients with Diabetes

19.07.2024

Treating diabetics with pedicures requires special consideration and caution due to the unique health challenges associated with diabetes. People with diabetes often have reduced blood flow to their extremities and may have nerve damage (neuropathy) in their feet, which can impair sensation. These conditions make them more susceptible to infections and less likely to feel irritation, pain, or injury, which can lead from minor issues to severe complications.

30% off Apex Build only in July

We want as many of you as possible to try our Apex Build series because we are seeing far too many HEMA-free bottle builder systems that encourage nail technicians to perform aggressive prep with low grit files for product adhesion. Unfortunately, this not only damages the natural nail plate in the long run but also ruins further chances of better adhesion due to the damaged dorsal layer of the nail plate, which offers the best adhesion between the natural nail plate and any artificial coating. Additionally, it doesn't guarantee good results as most of the highly acclaimed HEMA-free builders are simply formulated too rigid for their main purpose, which is natural nail overlays.

Esterilización y Herramientas Costosas para Manicura

Contrariamente a las afirmaciones de marketing populares, los recubrimientos de titanio no ofrecen beneficios higiénicos superiores:

¡Atención Técnicos de Uñas: No Caigas en la Trampa Común!

Este problema generalizado a menudo se origina en una formación inadecuada proporcionada por numerosas marcas.

Esmalte de Gel con Purpurina: ¿Microplásticos?

16.10.2023

El 25 de septiembre de 2023, la Comisión de la UE introdujo la restricción de la UE REACH sobre microplásticos, marcando un movimiento significativo en la lucha contra la contaminación por microplásticos. Dado que las regulaciones cosméticas de la UE están alineadas con las del Reino Unido y esta iniciativa representa un cambio hacia "opciones más verdes", es muy probable que el Reino Unido siga el ejemplo. Entonces, ¿qué implicaciones tiene esto para el esmalte de uñas en gel o los productos de purpurina curables con UV/LED? Como siempre, estamos aquí para mantenerte informado.

¿Qué es una fórmula hipoalergénica?

05.07.2023

¿Preocupado por HEMA y alergias en las uñas? Vale la pena señalar que muchas marcas han aumentado el uso de otros monómeros en un esfuerzo por reemplazar HEMA y satisfacer la demanda de productos libres de HEMA. Sin embargo, este enfoque plantea desafíos potenciales a largo plazo.

Product Adhesion | Acidity| Nail Prep

06.01.2023

Adhesion - a term we often hear in the nail industry and rightly so. Poor product adhesion is the number one reason for product lifting. It is also a common misconception that a product's adhesion can only be "formulated" by a manufacturer.
