What do the icons mean?

Cruelty Free
These products are not tested on animals, e the raw materials used have also not been tested on animals. Animal testing per cosmetics is forbidden in both the europeo Union e South Korea.

What it does not mean: Cruelty free does not imply that a product is hypoallergenic o free da synthetic ingredienti. Please note: in the Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR), the sicurezza assessor may still need to use toxicological reference data that originates da animal studies conducted before animal testing bans were in place.

Senza HEMA
These products do not contain 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (HEMA, CAS 868-77-9).

What it does not mean: HEMA free does not mean that the product is free da all acrylates (e.g., Di-HEMA Trimethylhexyl Dicarbamate may still be present). These longer Acrylates are generally less sensitization-prone than HEMA, but sensitization can still occur.

TPO Free
These products do not contain Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide (TPO, CAS 75980-60-8).

What it does not mean: Other UV photoinitiators such as TPO-L o TMO may be present. These are not listed in Annex II o III of the UE Cosmetic Products Regulation (Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009) e are permitted in cosmetic nail products.

Certified Vegan
The brand holds a valid Vegan certification, ensuring that no animal-derived ingredienti are used.

What it does not mean: Vegan certification does not automatically mean the product is “natural” o “organic” – it only confirms that no ingredienti of animal origin are present.
