BIG-5 Free means Bio Seaweed Gel polishes are free of the 5 health damaging chemicals that are often found in other brands in the polish industry.
These 5 products are:
- Formaldehyde: Formaldehyde is used to harden and strengthen nail polishes, also serving as a preservative that protects against bacterial growth. Formaldehyde can cause skin, eye, nose and throat irritation. High levels of exposure can cause certain types of cancer.
- Toluene: Toluene is known to be part of the so-called "toxic trio" of dangerous chemicals found in polishes (including formaldehyde and DBP) that give polishes a hard finish. Exposure to toluene can cause eye and nose irritation, confusion, euphoria, dizziness, headache, dilated pupils, skin inflammation, and liver and kidney damage. Products containing toluene can produce dangerous fumes which can also cause nausea and unconsciousness.
- DBP: Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is primarily used in nail products as a solvent for dyes and as a plasticizer that prevents polishes from becoming brittle. The controversial family of ingredients are phthalates, which have been implicated as endocrine disruptors and linked to endocrine system problems and increased risk of diabetes.
- BHA: BHA is primarily used as an antioxidant and preservative and is considered a carcinogen that can promote tumor growth and impair blood clotting. They have been, BHA as well as BHT, banned in Canada, Japan, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
- Camphor: Camphor is often used as a plasticizer, which helps the polish stick to your nails. It also prevents chipping. Prolonged and excessive exposure to vapors can cause nausea, dizziness, headaches and disorientation, making it of particular concern for technicians nails. Apart from nail care, it has been used by insect hobbyists to preserve specimens.
All Bio Seaweed Gel polishes are certified cruelty-free and vegan. They are also enriched with vitamins and minerals to ensure healthy nails.
- Tenir vos bouteilles de vernis gel loin de la lampe lorsqu'elle est allumée. Si elles sont trop près, le gel et le pinceau polymériseront et seront inutilisables par la suite.
- Tenir vos bouteilles loin des rayons UV. Évitez de faire l'application de votre vernis gel à l'extérieur (même si c'est nuageux!) Les vernis gel Unity All-in-One ne requièrent pas de base ni de finition et ils polymérisent au soleil. Vous devez faire votre application à l'intérieur et ensuite vous rendre à l'extérieur pour le polymériser 2 minutes. Nous vous suggérons fortement de tout de même appliquer la base et la finition sur vos ongles de mains.
- Brassez bien vos bouteilles avant chaque utilisation. Les vernis gel Unity All-in-One ont déjà de la base et de la finition à l'intérieur. Si vous n'avez pas brassé un de ces vernis gel depuis longtemps, il risque d'y avoir une couche de base, de couleur et de finition superposées au même titre que de l'eau et de l'huile (mélange hétérogène). Ce peut être une raison pour laquelle un vernis gel Unity All-in-One s'écaille quelques jours après l'application.
- Toutes les couches de vernis gel resteront collantes même après les avoir polymérisées sous une lampe. Seul le vernis Finition gel brillante sera complètement sec après avoir été polymérisé. Il est très important de ne pas s'accrocher nul part lors de l'application.
- Votre lampe doit avoir une intensité de plus de 42 watts pour que les vernis gel polymérisent correctement. Le positionnement des doigts à l’intérieur de la lampe est très important. Portez une attention particulière à votre pouce et votre auriculaire.
- Toujours faire des couches minces. Si les couches sont trop épaisses, le vernis gel s’écaillera.
- Laissez un millimètre entre la cuticule et le vernis gel. S’il déborde dans les cuticules, il écaillera.
- Ne pas arracher le vernis gel, car une des couches de vos ongles naturels s’arrachera aussi.
- Nous vous suggérons fortement de polymériser la base et la finition au moins 2 minutes.
Always apply the gel polish on one or two nails at a time, curing them for 5 seconds under the lamp to avoid spillage into the cuticles.
1. Apply Strengtening Base coat evenly and cure it under the Nail lamp for 2 minutes.
If you miss a small corner, the gel could easily peel off from there.
2. Apply a first coat of gel color and cure for 1 minute.
Apply as many coats as you wish until you love the opacity. Polymerize between each coat.
3. Apply varnish evenly Shiny Top coat and cure for 2-3 minutes.
We suggest to cure the tips of your nails by lifting your hand under the lamp, but leaving your palm on the plate so they can be in direct contact with the LEDs.
Make sure your gel polish is all dry, especially on the side of the thumbs and the pinky fingers.
Please note that each coat of gel polish will not be dry when you will remove your nails from the lamp. They will be sticky throughout the application process except when you will have apply the top coat. Only the top coat Shiny top coat will be completely dry once cured.
4. To finalize your manicure, apply some cuticle oil and/or CND lotion and voila!
