Gel nails are loved by many nail lovers for their durability and glossiness, and UV nail lamps are an indispensable tool in the curing process of gel nails. Correct use of UV nail lamps can not only ensure the effect of nail art, but also reduce damage to nails.
UV nail lamps cure nail gel by releasing ultraviolet light of a specific wavelength to form a hard and durable coating. Common nail lamps include UV lamps and LED lamps.
| Type of lamp | Wavelength Range | Curing Time | Applicable Gel Type |
| UV lamp | 320-400nm | 120-180 seconds | Traditional UV gel |
| LED lamp | 365-405nm | 30-60 seconds | LED quick-drying gel |
Before using UV nail lamps, basic care is required to ensure that the gel can adhere better.
Trim and sand the nail surface to make it smooth and even.
Use a lint-free cotton pad dipped in a cleaner to remove grease and dust from the nail surface.
Apply an appropriate amount of base coat and place in a UV nail lamp to cure.
Apply the first layer of nail gel evenly, avoiding too thick a layer.
Place your hand in the UV nail lamp and cure for the recommended time.
After removing, apply a second or more layers and repeat the curing steps to enhance the color saturation.
Apply a top coat evenly on the nail to protect the gel layer and improve the gloss.
Place in the UV nail lamp again to ensure that the top coat is completely cured.
Finally, wipe the nail surface with a cleaner to remove uncured residue.
Avoid prolonged exposure: UV rays may cause damage to the skin, it is recommended to use sun-proof gloves or apply sunscreen on the hands.
Replace the lamp regularly: The life of UV lamp is generally 1000 hours, and it needs to be replaced in time after aging.
Clean the lamp: Wipe the lamp and lamp cavity with alcohol regularly to keep it clean.
