TPO-Free Professional Nail Products: DARK & Trendy Nails 2025

Posted by Kodi professional 0 Comment(s)

In our online store, product safety and quality are always our top priorities.

We closely monitor all updates in the field of professional cosmetics and respond promptly to changes in legislation.

Starting in 2024, updated requirements for cosmetic product compositions have come into effect in the European Union. According to Regulation (EU) 2024/197, the component TPO (Trimethylbenzoyl diphenylphosphine oxide), previously used in certain bases and gels for polymerization, has been classified as a CMR 1 substance — carcinogenic, mutagenic, and toxic to reproduction.

As of September 1, 2025, the use of TPO will be officially banned in all cosmetic products sold within the EU. This rule applies to all manufacturers — from mass-market to professional brands.

We didn't wait for the final deadline: all the products in our catalog already meet the new requirements. We offer only tested, safe formulas from responsible brands you can truly trust.


Updated DARK Formulas: Same Trusted Quality — Now TPO-Free

The DARK brand team proactively revised all formulas that previously contained TPO — a photoinitiator banned in the EU starting September 1, 2025. They updated the compositions without compromising the performance professionals rely on:

– Long-lasting wear, regardless of nail type or conditions
– Flexible, manageable texture — comfortable for both beginners and experienced techs
– Stable and fast curing in any class of lamp
– Versatility in application — from thin leveling to strengthening and sculpting

All these features remain in the new formulas — because for this company, it's not just a "gel polish base," but the foundation of reliable results both in salons and on competition stages.

As of May 1, 2025, the updated bases and top coats are available for purchase, fully compliant with the new EU regulations. Look for the "TPO-free" label on the packaging — your indicator of safety.

If you're looking for professional bases and tops that meet European standards, integrate seamlessly into your workflow, and never let you down — choose DARK. We're transparent, honest, and always one step ahead — because professionals build trust on facts, not promises.


Trendy Nails: Innovative TPO-Free Formulas — Safe and Professional

At Trendy Nails, the safety of professionals and clients comes first. We carefully track changes in industry standards and have updated our product line, removing TPO from all formulas — without sacrificing key performance traits.

  • Builder Gel in a Bottle HEMA/TPO free (Clear, Pina Colada, Sensual) — convenient thick texture in a bottle format for leveling and sculpting

  • InnoBase HEMA/TPO free 8 ml — clear base with excellent adhesion, medium oily consistency, perfectly adapts to the natural nail, safe for sensitive skin


Why the Updated Formulas Matter

We preserved all the qualities professionals value:

  • Texture flexibility — controlled, predictable consistency for precise work

  • Reliable curing in UV/LED lamps

  • Versatility — from sculpting to coverage and finishing

That’s why our line isn’t just safe. These are time-tested tools trusted by nail techs who use them daily.

As of now, other brands have not provided information about the adaptation of their products to the new EU regulations.
