Nitrile Gloves
Professional nitrile examination gloves for permanent makeup procedures. Nitrile — not latex — is the correct choice for PMU practice: it is resistant to puncture, chemically compatible with PMU pigments and numbing agents, and eliminates the latex allergy risk that makes latex gloves inappropriate in a clinical or semi-clinical setting.
- Nitrile — latex-free — safe for clients and artists with latex sensitivities
- Puncture resistant — maintains barrier integrity through the full procedure
- Tactile sensitivity — thin enough to feel needle pressure and skin response
- Chemical compatible — safe with numbing creams, pigments, and topical disinfectants
In a PMU setting, gloves are a primary barrier between you and bloodborne pathogens. Nitrile's superior chemical resistance means it won't degrade on contact with the alcohol-based and lidocaine-based products used throughout a session. Change gloves between the numbing phase and the procedure phase, and any time a breach occurs.
Hygiene note: Single-use. Never reuse or wear over a previous pair without fresh outer gloves. Dispose of used gloves immediately as sharps-adjacent biological waste per your local health authority guidelines.
Who this is for: Every PMU artist, every procedure, no exceptions. Nitrile gloves are a non-negotiable consumable in any compliant permanent makeup practice.
