Hypoallergenic nail polish?

‎08-18-2023 10:58 AM

I did it again.  After years of decent nails using Tips I dared to try nail polish again.  After a month it was a total disaster, my peeling, flaking and breaking nails reappeared.  The two polishes I was using are OPI and Kur.  Has anyone heard of a hypoallergenic polish?

depglass--Have you considered that it might be your polish remover and not the nail polish? I have a problem with polish removers drying out my nails so badly that they chip,crack and dry out the cuticles. I found A,S,K. polish remover and it solved my issues. 

I use Perfect Formula nail polish that works for me. I do have very sensitive skin, etc and allergies to most things but this is what works for me. 

I hope it works for you.

Try a polish that is touted as being at least 10 FREE of chemicals like Zoya. Also Deb Lippmann.
