Abstract
The invention relates to photocurable compositions comprising at least one inorganic gelling agent.
Claims16
A method for improving removal properties of a photo cured nail composition from a nail during a process for removing the nail composition from the nail, wherein a topcoat composition has been applied to the nail composition prior to photocuring, comprising:
- adding at least one hydrophobic inorganic gelling agent in an amount of at least about 1% by weight based on the total weight of the topcoat composition to the topcoat composition during preparation of the topcoat composition to improve removal properties of the nail composition from the nail after the nail composition has been photocured on the nail and during the process for removing the nail composition from the nail, wherein the topcoat composition consists of at least one urethane (meth)acrylate compound, at least one (meth)acrylate monomer, at least one photoinitiator, optionally at least one colorant, optionally at least one film forming agent, and optionally at least one solvent.
