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.

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.

Sterilizzazione e Costosi Strumenti per la Manicure

16.02.2024

Contrariamente alle affermazioni di marketing popolari, i rivestimenti in titanio non offrono vantaggi igienici superiori:

Acquistare strumenti di alta qualità è cruciale, ma la loro manutenzione, compresa la regolare sanificazione e sostituzione, è altrettanto importante. Tuttavia, uno strumento costoso è più difficile da sostituire entro 6 mesi poiché il costo degli strumenti da solo sarebbe un ulteriore £212 all'anno.

L'errore numero 1 che stai commettendo con Builder in a Bottle.

Attenzione Tecnici delle Unghie: Non Cadete nella Trappola Comune! Molti faticano a distinguere le sottili differenze tra la sovrapposizione in gel e la scultura in gel, senza considerare il compito cruciale di selezionare i prodotti giusti per ciascun servizio. Questo problema diffuso spesso deriva da una formazione inadeguata fornita da numerose marche.

Smalto Gel Glitter: Microplastica?

16.10.2023

Il 25 settembre 2023, la Commissione Europea ha introdotto il divieto europeo REACH sulla microplastica, segnando un passo significativo nella lotta all'inquinamento da microplastica. Dato che le normative cosmetiche dell'UE sono allineate a quelle del Regno Unito e questa iniziativa rappresenta un passo verso scelte più 'verdi', è molto probabile che il Regno Unito seguirà l'esempio. Quindi, quali implicazioni ha tutto ciò per lo smalto gel o per i prodotti glitter UV/LED indurente? Come sempre, siamo qui per tenervi informati.

Cos'è una formula ipoallergenica?!

05.07.2023

Preoccupato per HEMA e allergie alle unghie? Vale la pena notare che molti marchi hanno aumentato l'uso di altri monomeri nel tentativo di sostituire l'HEMA e soddisfare la domanda di prodotti privi di HEMA. Tuttavia, questo approccio pone potenziali sfide a lungo termine.

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.

01.07.2022

In the recent years the nail industry both in the UK and internationally has seen an increase in nail allergies and as the industry tries to comes to terms with the impact it has on the livelihoods of salons and its clients it's only natural that questions are being asked.
