To allow the nail artist to properly position and press the nail form or extension into place, they need freedom of movement. With this unique lamp design, nail techs can make sure there are no air bubbles, can adjust the angle of the nail so that the entire nail surface is perfctly covered with UV light, all while assuring that no space is missed--the entire nail plate dries and cures uniformly, without bubbles or bumps.

For hand-painting enthusiasts, this two-in-one design allows you to switch the LED light with the UV light, which makes it time-saving and convenient for fine detail work, for applying that delicate touch of bling, and for painting the perfect smile line. While you are curing your gel polish for 60 seconds, it will switch to LED light mode automatically, or you can also simply touch the button on the head to switch it if needed.
