Chromavis Fareva: A nail polish remover and nail care solution in a convenient pen format
At Cosmopack this year, the Italian manufacturer of makeup products introduced the first nail polish remover in a pen form.
Dubbed Sheer Dream Vegan Creamy Remover, the innovation boasts a 100% natural and vegan semi-solid formula that melts upon contact with the nail, to dissolve polish while nourishing and protecting nails.
The formula includes a network of natural waxes gradually releasing a 100% natural solvent, to offer deep yet gentle nail polish removal. Also among the balm’s ingredients are avocado oil and vitamin E to hydrate, repair, and strengthen nails.
The formula is non-flammable and low in volatile organic compounds, while its anhydrous, hot-poured formula allows for a controlled release of active ingredients for effective, non- damaging nail polish removal. The stylo format, meanwhile, makes it an ultra-practical product for everyday use, including when traveling.
Chromavis’ Sheer Dream Vegan Creamy Remover scooped the Cosmopack Award in the category “Make-up Formula”.
