- Abstract
The present case highlights that (meth)acrylate-sensitized consumers may be at risk of developing ACD and nail problems from daylight curing "hybrid" nail polishes, which may be difficult to distinguish from regular nail varnish. Keywords: "hybrid" gel nail polish; acrylates; allergic contact dermatitis; case report; daylight curing; light source; methacrylates; nail varnish; onycholysis; prevention EN "hybrid" gel nail polish acrylates allergic contact dermatitis case report daylight curing light source methacrylates nail varnish onycholysis prevention 449 450 2 05/06/21 20210601 NES 210601 Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) from (meth)acrylates in gel nail polishes, cured by the use of ultraviolet (UV) or light-emitting diode (LED) lamps, may affect women, men, and occasionally even children.1-3 We report a case of ACD from methacrylate-containing daylight curing "hybrid" gel nail polishes. Surprisingly, some of these were labeled as "hybrid" gel nail polishes (Figure 1B), containing methacrylates, among which HEMA-based copolymers and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, curable upon exposure to daylight.
