7 FREE PRODUCTS
Ours Products
Due to the legitimate concern of our consumers about the hazardous chemicals used in many enamels today, Joaquin Manuel has developed a line of 7 Free glazes.
Our products are always 7 free, that is, they are always free of the 7 main harmful chemicals you'll find in the vast majority of nail polishes on the market today.

Formaldehyde Resin
This derivative of formaldehyde is slightly less toxic than formaldehyde, but it is still a dangerous carcinogen and allergen. It has been known to cause dermatitis in especially sensitive people.
Toluene
A chemical used in some enamels. Exposure to toluene headaches, fatigue, and dizziness.
Camphor
It can cause nausea, dizziness, and headaches, especially when inhaled in large doses, which represents a particular risk for hand and foot care specialists.

Parabens
Parabens have been used since 1925 in cosmetics such as creams, shampoos, deodorants, shower gels, make up products, and nail polish. In 2004, oncologists at Reading University in Edinburgh carried out studies in which 90% of the analyzed samples from breast cancer patients contained traces of parabens.
