Makartt Reinforce Gel Polish
Skip until ingredient transparency improves; gel polish risk profile inherently opaque.
Makartt does not disclose PFAS presence or absence in its Reinforce Gel Polish formula. Gel polishes are complex synthetic resin systems where PFAS use in manufacturing or formulation is not publicly ruled out. Without third-party lab testing or brand transparency on chemical inputs, risk cannot be reliably estimated.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 32% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
