I was asked the question a few days ago, why is it such a big deal to have Hema in our gel systems? This includes hard/soft AND gel polishes. That was a good question because I myself have not done my research on Hema. The gel brand we carry  contain well below the FDA regulated

Many, including myself will market the benefit of “panthenol” in our brands. Many LCN products contain panthenol, some Footlogix contain panthenol.
