TESTED & APPROVED
WATER-BASED FORMULA
Water permeability confirmed by EuroLab, an independent laboratory in Türkiye.

1. The Difference Between Monomer and Polymer
Unlike conventional nail polishes that rely on polymer chains, MineVital’s water-based formula is built from monomer units.

2. A Formula That Loves Water
Our formula is hydrophilic, not hydrophobic. This means it naturally attracts and interacts with water instead of resisting it.
When exposed to water, MineVital’s monomer-based film lets microscopic droplets pass through its surface, creating a truly breathable and water-compatible nail film.

3. Different Behavior in Water Contact
While conventional acetone-based polishes stay solid and separate from water, MineVital’s formula behaves differently.
What the laboratory measured. The polish was applied to a plate and left until fully cured, then lifted off as a free film and placed on blotting paper in a petri dish. Two to three drops of pure water were placed on the film. Rubbed with a fingertip, the water passed through the film and wet the blotting paper underneath in approximately 4–5 seconds.

4. How It still doesn’t Wash Away Instantly
- Even though it interacts with water, MineVital’s coating forms an elastic film once dry.
- This film allows water molecules to pass through but stays intact under normal daily contact, like hand washing or light water exposure.
- Only prolonged immersion, such as washing dishes, may soften its edges, and even then, it can be easily refreshed with a light brush touch or peeled off effortlessly when desired.
