Allergic contact dermatitis caused by (meth)acrylates in nail cosmetic products in users and nail technicians – a 5‐year study

Abstract

HEMA and HPMA were the most frequent positive allergens. HEMA, which identified 90% of cases, can be considered to be a good screening allergen. The high number of cases of ACD caused by (meth)acrylates in nail cosmetic products certainly warrants better preventive measures at the occupational level, and specific regulation in the field of consumer safety.
