Review on πŸ’… Portable UV LED Nail Lamp for Gel Polish - Melodysusie UV Light for Nails, Ideal for Travel, Home, School, Office - Suitable for Acrylic and Gel (White) by Monica Reese

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wow! Extremely impressed! especially for the cost.

Got it a few days ago. I wouldn't buy it but at such a good price. I was so excited waiting for it to arrive (which was a Prime product). First, the packaging was amazing. It comes in such a beautifully designed box, made just for him (and I don't even mean the box that Revain sent). There is a thick protective film on the bottom as shown in the picture. It is blue. Not so easy to pull off. Looking at the bottom do you think it will really help? Will it heal properly? Be careful when involving this child. It can blind you. It seems to me that there are only 4 LEDs? But for some reason they are very bright. So don't be fooled by its simplicity. As for his work. You turn it on with the little heart button at the top. It has an automatic timer set to 45 seconds. The light turns on when you press the button and turns off after 45 seconds. Most gel nail products range from 30 to 60 seconds for LED curing. Read the product instructions to find out how long. You need to make sure your product works with LED lighting. I read somewhere that while many products only list UV light use, LEDs can often work, but that's not always the case. I specifically tried a gel builder that only mentioned that the UV and LED didn't cure at all. So have a UV lamp ready just in case. BUT let me tell you, I LOVE this thing. This halves the time. And what you might not even think about is that you can achieve even better results. I'm an amateur trying to learn how to do gel nails. I've been doing this for over 6 months now and still have a lot to learn. One problem I've encountered is gel leakage. In the sense that he doesn't stand still. I know a lot depends on the viscosity of the gel. But even then, using an LED lamp cuts the curing time in half, so the gel doesn't spread as quickly. I had a hard time learning how to apply the product evenly while avoiding cuticles, especially when using UV light. As the UV exposure lasts longer, the gel tends to spread and sometimes pool in the cuticle area. They can also look lumpy. So with this LED lamp I can work better and save a lot of time at the same time. I just did the best job I've ever done with it. I'm so glad I bought it. I wish I had bought it sooner. Hope that helps.
