The invention relates to a gel for producing a coating for a finger nail, in particular for producing an artificial fingernail, comprising a resin, a reactive diluent and a photopolymersation catalyst. According to the invention, the reactive diluent is formed from monomers which have a molecular weight of 300g/mol. Said reactive diluent comprises a monomer having at least one ethylenically unsaturated group, preferably tetraethylene glycol dimethacrylate-based monomers. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the resin is devoid of both hydroquinone (HQ) and p-hydroxyanisole (HQME). Advantageously, the gel has a cellulose compound as a source agent for detaching the coating, formed from the gel, from the fingernail. |
