HEMA-free
Although POLYTEK is not hypoallergenic, it is HEMA-free and HPMA-free (Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate, Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate). HEMA and HPMA are the #1 and #2 nail product allergens according to the British Association of Dermatologists report from August 2018, here.
This males POLYTEK especially useful as an alternative to HEMA-based acrylic monomer systems, or acrylic HEMA-free monomer systems that contain HPMA.
