A New Generation of Acrylic Liquids: Meet Be Beauty’s DMPT- and HEMA-Free Monomers
Acrylic Systems Are Evolving
The professional nail industry continues to evolve as brands, distributors, and manufacturers place greater emphasis on ingredient transparency, regulatory awareness, and global market readiness. For acrylic systems in particular, liquid monomers remain one of the most important components in determining application speed, adhesion, odor profile, and overall durability.
At Be Beauty, we closely monitor ingredient trends and regulatory developments to help our partners stay ahead. As part of this commitment, we are introducing two updated acrylic liquid monomer SKUs formulated without DMPT and HEMA.
These formulas are based on two of our proven systems that many partners already know and trust. The new versions maintain their core performance characteristics while aligning with modern formulation expectations and expanding opportunities for global distribution.
Introducing Our Updated Acrylic Liquid Monomers

Why DMPT- and HEMA-Free Formulations Matter
Across the nail industry, ingredient awareness continues to grow. Nail professionals, retailers, and international markets increasingly look for formulas that align with evolving safety standards and regional regulations.
DMPT and HEMA have been widely used in nail systems for many years, but regulatory developments and market preferences are encouraging manufacturers to explore alternative formulation approaches.
By offering monomer systems formulated without these ingredients, Be Beauty helps brands position their products with:
- Greater ingredient transparency
- Broader market compatibility
- Alignment with modern formulation expectations
This shift also reflects a broader industry trend toward future-focused product development.
Supporting Global Compliance
As the beauty industry becomes more global, brands must consider how their products perform not only in the U.S., but also in international markets such as the European Union.
Recent regulatory updates across the EU and other regions have encouraged manufacturers to rethink ingredient strategies and ensure products can meet evolving compliance requirements.
While regulations vary by region and application, developing formulas with global markets in mind can help brands:
- Reduce reformulation challenges
- Expand international distribution opportunities
- Improve long-term product viability
At Be Beauty, regulatory awareness is an important part of how we approach product development. Our team continues to explore solutions that help partners prepare for future compliance landscapes while maintaining professional performance.
