When I used latex gloves during acrylic application, I saw some yellowing... I wat told that it was from the gloves.... what type of gloves can I use without yellowing the nail pls?!

Thx guys!!
 
Why are you wearing gloves? Unless you have skin problems on your hands, then its not necessary to really wear gloves. Latex gloves could also give a skin reaction to one of your clients, latex allergies being quite common.

I wear nitrile gloves due to allergies and they don't cause yellowing. They don't entirely stop the allergies either but they slow it down quite a bit. Cotton liners inside them help but I feel too bulky when I use them.
 
The whole point of wearing gloves is to stop your skin from touching active product (Dust from fileing is also product) so keep on wearing them it's good habit.
Try the Viny gloves this won't harm the acrylic........:)
 
Nitrile gloves are much better than latex when doing nails, like Layla said, many people can have allergies to latex

i wear gloves when working due to the dust, i started with latex but since finding nitrile i wouldnt change back
when apply a new set on a client or repairs i found that my forms stick like crazy things when wearing latex gloves (to the gloves your wearing and not where you want them!!)
