Lampe LED UV pour Ongles D'orleac   36 W Blanc

The UV nail lamp

The UV nail lamp is a device for quickly drying gel or semi-permanent nail polishes . Thanks to this technology, gone are the days when you had to wait several minutes or even hours for the layers of varnish to dry completely.

How a UV nail lamp works

Simply place your nails under the light emitted by the lamp so that it causes a photochemical reaction which allows the varnish to harden and adhere perfectly to the nail.

The exposure time varies depending on the power of the lamp and the type of varnish used (generally between 10 and 60 seconds).

Applying false nails and extensions

If you have short or fragile nails, you can opt for false nails or extensions to achieve a longer, more sophisticated effect. The most commonly used materials are:

  1. False nails made of plastic or resin
  2. Tips, which are glued to part of the natural nail then covered with gel or acrylic resin
  3. Templates, which are adhesive shapes placed under the nail to create a custom sculpted extension

To successfully install false nails or extensions, remember to have a good glue specially designed for this use. Poor glue quality can lead to problems such as:

  • Premature detachment of false nails or extensions
  • Skin irritations due to aggressive chemical composition
  • Damage to the natural nail when removing false nails or extensions

The use of a nail file is also recommended to adjust the size and shape of false nails or extensions after installation.
