Why Natural Pigments Are Revolutionizing the Nail Industry

Why Natural Pigments Are Revolutionizing the Nail Industry

Before diving deeper into the effect of natural pigments on gel polish formulas, let’s understand the definition of those pigments and what natural nail care truly means. 

Benefits of organic and natural pigments 

The natural pigments used in noorb gelity formula are Armenian Highland minerals derived from stones. There are specific types of stones and rocks that are exclusive to the Armenian Highland. Some examples of such rocks are Armenian Red Porphyry and Tufa. The first one is mostly found in Armenia’s Syunik region and is a very unique red stone with white spots. On the other hand, tufa is a very famous stone and can be found in many different regions of the country. It comes in a variety of shades such as beige, cream, salmon color, yellow, brown, light gray, and rust.

The next step in the production of noorb beauty gel polishes is crashing these stones in order to get the powder organic pigments. Due to the large variety of stones, we are able to acquire almost all colors, ensuring that our formula is of utmost natural origin. Now let’s go through the benefits of organic pigments one by one and why they are revolutionary for the nail industry. 

Odor 

One of the major challenges that the nail industry is facing is the unpleasant odor of gel polishes. There are a lot of people with very high sensitivity to these types of smells, and because of that, they refrain from getting a gel manicure. Furthermore, nail masters are exposed to the odor of gel polishes and many other products all the time, which can prove to have a negative effect on their health in the long run. Due to the use of organic pigments in our formula, we managed to create odorless gel polishes, which is revolutionary in the nail industry. 

Safety 

Natural nail care should be all about the safety of both the end consumers and the nail masters. As the pigments that we use are Armenian Highland minerals, they are less likely to cause any allergic reactions or skin sensitivities in comparison to solely using synthetic pigments. Furthermore, our gel polishes are big 5-free, which, in turn, minimizes the risk of allergic reactions as much as possible. Staying true to our values of innovation and excellence, we constantly update the formula and soon will be presenting an upgraded and even safer variation. 

UV Stability 

Another important benefit of organic pigments is their stability to the UV. This is a very important attribute for any gel polish color. It basically ensures that the color will not fade or change when exposed to UV light during the curing process. However, please note that the top coat has also a huge effect on this attribute. We strongly recommend using shiny and scratch-resistant top coats, such as noorb beauty’s Shiny Top. 

Better consistency 

Last, but not least, organic pigments are more compatible with the gel polish formulation. They disperse evenly and do not settle at the bottom of the bottle. This is crucial for the even and smooth application of the product. Furthermore, during the entire shelf-life of the gel polish, it is very unlikely for it to change its consistency. 

Natural nail care should be effective in the long run. Organic pigments are revolutionizing the nail industry by solving many important problems that nail masters have been facing for a very long time. We are very happy and proud to be one of the contributors to this positive change.
