products, such as nail polish, hair sprays, aftershave lotions, soaps,
shampoos, perfumes and other fragrance preparations.

Powder Free vs Powdered Gloves
Powder Free gloves go through an extra process of
chlorinating the gloves, making it easier to take the gloves on or
off.
Powdered gloves are produced with a food grade
corn starch powder, making it easier to take them on or off – especially
with wet hands.
