Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is Acrylic Monomer?
Acrylic Monomer is a liquid that, when mixed with acrylic powder, creates a chemical reaction to form a strong, durable nail enhancement. The liquid acts as a binder, creating a paste that can be sculpted onto the nails before it hardens into a solid, flexible material.

2. How long does Acrylic Monomer last?
When stored properly in a cool, dry place, Acrylic Monomer can last between 12 to 18 months. It’s important to keep the product sealed and away from extreme temperatures, as heat or cold can degrade its performance.

3. What is Liquid-and-Powder?
This refers to a two-part system used in acrylic nails. The liquid (monomer) is combined with a pre-polymerized powder to create the sculpting mixture. Once mixed, there’s a short working time before the mixture begins to harden.

4. Why do my acrylic nails take too long to dry?
Temperature can affect the drying time of the acrylic. If the liquid and powder are too cold, the polymerization process slows down, leading to longer drying times. Ideally, store your products at room temperature (70°F) for optimal results.

5. What types of Acrylic Monomer sets are available?
Acrylic Monomer comes in various sets based on working time:

Slow Set: Great for beginners, offers more than three minutes of sculpting time.
Medium Set: Provides 2-3 minutes, commonly used by professionals.
Fast Set: Hardens in less than a minute, often used in competitions for quick application.

6. What is MMA and why is it banned?
Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) was once used in nail systems but has been linked to serious health issues like nail loss and infections. The FDA took action against MMA in the 1970s. Tones Products uses EMA (Ethyl Methacrylate), which is safer for use in beauty products.

7. What is Liquid Monomer?
Liquid Monomer, also known as ‘liquid,’ is primarily made of EMA and contains UV inhibitors to prevent yellowing. It binds with acrylic powder to create a durable paste that can be shaped onto nails. Always use monomer and powder from the same brand for the best results and to avoid issues like yellowing or weak nails.

8. Why does my Acrylic Monomer dry so quickly?
This is due to the polymerization process. When the liquid is mixed with powder, it begins to harden within 1-3 minutes, depending on the set speed of the monomer. Practicing with different set speeds will help you control your working time.

9. What makes Tones Products' Acrylic Monomer so great?
Tones Products Acrylic Monomer is proudly made in the USA with high-quality ingredients. The formulation is designed to provide excellent sculpting time, smooth application, and lasting durability, making it ideal for professional nail technicians seeking consistent results.

10. Is Acrylic Monomer safe to use?
Yes, but only when used with proper ventilation. The liquid gives off strong fumes, so it’s important to work in a well-ventilated area. Always wear gloves and avoid skin contact. Tones Products uses safe, EMA-based formulations.
