Remove the varnish is an integral part of the manicure routine. However, the choice of solvent counts as much as that of base, colour or care applied afterwards. An appropriate formula must effectively remove the varnish while limiting the feeling of drying of the nail and its contour. The dissolvent without acetone precisely responds to this search for balance between efficiency and softness. But not all formulas are valid: type of varnish, composition, care workers, speed of withdrawal and format are all criteria to look at before choosing.
In short: which solvent without acetone choose?
The good solvent without acetone is above all the one that corresponds to your type of varnish and nail needs.
For a classic varnish, a care varnish or a base, prefer an acetone-free formula that can quickly dissolve the color without multiplying friction. If your nails or their contours tend to be dry or sensitive, a formula enriched with vegetable oil or care assets is strongly recommended.
For the Express manicures, a dissolvant bath allows to remove the varnish in a few gestures, without cotton.
However, the semi-permanent should not be treated as a classic varnish: a solvent specifically compatible with the worn system should be used.
What is an acetone-free solvent?
A solvent without acetone is simply a varnish removal product whose formula does not contain d-acetone as a solvent. This does not mean that it is free of solvents: to dissolve resins, pigments and other components that generate the film of the varnish, the formula must incorporate agents capable of solubilizing them.
L-l-l-acetate d-ethyl, for example, is one of the solvents used in several Dissolvents without acetone Manucurist. The formula can then be supplemented with oils, panthenol, vitamins or other ingredients intended to improve comfort after withdrawal.
The name The formula as a whole and its fit with the varnish worn are more relevant.
Acetone or without acetone: what to choose according to your nails?
L-acetone is a particularly effective solvent. This efficiency explains in particular its use to remove certain long-lasting varnish systems. However, it may cause feeling dry skin and contour of the nail, especially if used frequently and without any further care.
A solvent without acetone is therefore an interesting option for the Regular manicures, especially when nails and cuticles tend to be dry. It allows for remove the varnish without damaging the nails and to integrate, for certain formulas, assets designed to improve the comfort of nails.
However, attention to a received idea: without acetone does not necessarily mean suitable for all varnishes. A soft solvent designed for a classic varnish will not be able to remove a traditional semi-permanent because its formula is not suitable. Some semi-permanent varnish formulas are designed to allow a non-acetone removal or sanding, with a specifically adapted solvent that preserves nail. This is the case with the varnish Green Flash™ which works in symbiosis with the Sweet Dissolvent Green Flash™ .
The simplest solution is often to turn to the solvent proposed by the brand and in the same range as the chosen varnish. Otherwise, the choice must be made in this order: first check compatibility with your type of varnish, then select the formula that best suits your nails' needs.
The criteria for a good solvent without an acetone
Efficiency and speed of withdrawal
A soft solvent must remain... effective. A formula that is too low in performance requires long rubbing of the nail plate and its contour. However, the repeated mechanical withdrawal cancels the desired profit.
With a solvent without an acetone, the classic varnish withdraws in seconds. Very pigmented colours or some finishes can take a little longer. In this case, it is better to leave a cotton soaked for a few seconds on the nail before dragging it, rather than multiplying friction.
In the semi-permanent varnish, it depends on the formula of the varnish used and the nature of the nails. A solvent without acetone may Remove a semi-permanent varnish in 1 to 10 minutes, or even more.
A sweet formula: ingredients
A soft solvent without acetone, it's good but when its formula contains fatty bodies and care ingredientsIt's even better! The formulae of the Dissolvers Manucurist are all bio-sourced to more than 95% and enriched with active ingredients promoting hydration and nail regeneration. A choice that allows you to find nails in full shape when you leave the manicure. We love it!
Comfort of use: perfume, format, recharge
A solvent is a product that is used regularly and sometimes for several minutes. Its comfort of use is therefore of great importance:
- The perfume can make withdrawal more enjoyable especially if the strong smell of solvents bothers you.
- The format depends mainly on your habits. A standard vial allows the product to be measured freely. A pot-solvent bath avoids the use of cotton and slips easily into a beauty case ready to go anywhere you want.
- Finally, if you regularly use your solvent, check whether it is possible to recharge your vial Instead of replacing it every time.
