We will also introduce gel nail tips that rival salons and are allergy-free , so be sure to read to the end!
What is a gel nail allergy?
Gel nail allergy is a condition in which the chemicals and ingredients contained in gel nails cause an allergic reaction in the skin and nails.
In particular, the ingredients " acrylate " and " HEMA " contained in gel nails are considered to be the main culprits.
Main symptoms🌀
Itching, redness, and swelling may occur.
In particular, symptoms often appear within a few hours to three days after applying gel nails.
In severe cases, blisters may form and the nail may peel off .
Causes of allergies 🌀
In recent years, it seems that allergies to gel nails caused by self-nail application have been increasing.
The causes are as follows!
Uncured gel
Touching the gel before it has fully hardened may cause an allergic reaction.
Gel on the skin
When applying gel nails, if the gel hardens while still on the skin , it can irritate that area and make you more susceptible to allergies.
Long-term use
Repeated use of gel nails makes the body more susceptible to allergic reactions.
Are allergies more common in winter?
It is said that the risk of developing the disease is higher in winter because of the dry weather .
Dry skin is a condition in which the skin's barrier function is weakened . When the barrier function is weakened, allergies are more likely to occur .
You may also be tempted to peel off the hangnails and skin, but be careful with this too.
The mucous membrane has a higher absorption rate than the epidermis , so it is very dangerous for the gel to come into contact with the mucous membrane after peeling.
To prevent the onset of the disease:
Do not let the gel come into contact with anything other than your nails
There are ways to physically avoid contact with the gel , such as using a skin coating product or masking tape.
Masking tape is available at 100 yen shops! Make sure to block it out properly!
Be careful with gel cleaners and curing lights
Gel cleaners used to wipe off uncured gel and UV lights used for curing can also cause allergies❗️
It's not just the gel that you need to be careful about, so it's very difficult to pinpoint the cause .
Cheap nails are riskier!
Did you know that products sold on cheap online shopping sites and at 100 yen shops have a higher risk of allergies than products used in salons?
The reason is that they often contain ingredients that pose a high risk of causing allergies.
Be sure to check the ingredients of the product and avoid high-risk products.
Even though it is more expensive, we recommend choosing an allergy-friendly gel !
Get professional treatment
Although it is expensive, we recommend having a professional manicurist do the treatment carefully !
When applying, be sure to block your skin and thoroughly rinse or wipe off any uncured gel!
What to do if you develop an allergy?
First, remove the nail polish
If you suspect you may have developed the condition, remove your nail polish immediately , even if it's a shame.
Visit a dermatologist
Visit a dermatologist and they'll give you the right treatment and prescription!
Allergies cannot be cured on their own , so make sure you get the right treatment.
Don't do gel nails
The most fundamental solution is to not get gel nails.
Once an allergy develops, it is unlikely to be cured completely , and in many cases, the condition gradually worsens.
In some cases, the dust scraped off during removal can cause breathing difficulties , requiring an ambulance...😭
It's a scary story that gel nails can put your life at risk ...!
