Iāve used that top coat for years, itās amazing. Yeah California law is wild, thereās warning labels even in public areas like Disneyland about risks for everything! Itās because of crazy lawsuits out there and just liability being needed for everything.
@Sorrel it does make you wonder š¤¦š¾āāļøš @Sarah yikesš¬.. That is wild!! So you've used it & didn't have any issues with conceiving or issues with baby?
I used this top coat during all my pregnancies and my children are 9, 5 and 2 weeks old. They've never had any issues. Inalso use this top coat over acrylic nails but I don't know if that makes a difference really. I could suggest other top coats if you're really uncomfortable with this one. I've been doing my own nails and have been in the nail scene (it's huge and wild lol) for 15 years.
All my suggestions though would be indie brand nail polish though so it would be a little more pricey than seche vite. The other mainstream brand top coat that's good and quick drying is essie good to go
Yeah used it for years now as itās 100% cruelty free and not sold in countries that require animal testing like China. Chip free and longer stronger nails (I have a hard wearing job that butchers my hands). I Conceived both babies first cycle and both perfectly healthy. The issue is, if there is a product/ingredient that the CDC can link to any health condition, California law means anything made or sold there needs the label. Itās a chemical called toluene, itās in most nail varnishes worldwide including here in the uk/europe. We just donāt label everything up like California do. The FDA says that the chemical is safe in nail varnishes as the amount is SO low, but Cali law is crazy and must label it.
@Leslie thank yooou for the recommendationšš.. Is the Essie as good as Seche? š«£
@Sarah ohh, so it's likely I've already come in contact with that chemical as I usually get my nails done (UK based).. Thank you for the informationš It's interesting how these things work lol
It's a good top coat but I've found it's not as shiny as seche vite.
Yeah, if you are uk based and get your nails done youāve most likely had it in brands like DND, CND, OPI! Itās just a common ingredient in varnishes, nail glues, paints in general x
@Sarah alot of nail polish doesn't contain toluene anymore and if it does they are required to disclose that they do
@Leslie ooo didnāt know this. Tbh we donāt tend to have safety labels on our products like Iāve seen in the US so maybe they arenāt labelled up. I know OPI had it until recently cause I did read online about it but our varnishes have no otherwise obvious safety label
@Sarah oh gotcha! Yeah here in the US most brands are 3, 5 or 7 free. There's higher numbers as well but honestly, people can list random ingredients that aren't even in polish as part of their X-free label. It's really silly honestly. I've even seen brands claim 21 free and I literally don't even know what that could mean lol
Yea if itās the proposition 65 one they have that at McDonald and Taco Bell in California so if that puts you at ease at all.

Wow no have never seen that but I would definitely return it. I mean what is in that stuff it needs that warning?! Iād rather have chipped nails! Must be a safe alternative.
