Can I use this product on my hands inside a UV or LED nail lamp?

It's great for automotive work too - good for anything where your hands and under your nails will get oil and grease. I scratch it under my nails and rub into the edges of each fingernail. I don't use gloves with it unless I am working with coolant or really harsh chemicals that can damage or be absorbed into your skin.

I would recommend to use the magic glove only for painting. Both type of lights are not good for your hands or your nails. Your nails get weaker and will be hard to get them back to normal and your hands in time will dry out even more. I am talking because my nails now are very weak and break easily. I only use magic glove for oil painting. It is a good product but you still need to wear protective disposable gloves.

we only use it for non electronic salon implements and the uv lite is a bit warm i would choose not to use it for those items

With any shellac polish I only use a UV light. Don't know enough of the difference between LED & UV. I would seek a Google answer.

I have no idea, I guess it does work but they're different kinda of led lamps for nails, you should google your question.

Yes , you can put both feet or both hands in. Very roomy...for UV this is great. I have not tried led light for same size and same watts....so if could compare uv fan vs led light fan it would be better to decide which one. I looked into both but because of price and size I decided for this one and never look back. Best wishes!

I was taught to use LED for OPI and UV for brands like CND. I was taught by a friend who used to have her nails done by a manicurist and now she does them herself. My opinion here is only what I was taught personally.

I am a nail technician who specializes in artificial nails and have been using this product for about 10 years. 2 min is the recommended cure time for this product. First off I have a couple of questions regarding use for troubleshooting purposes. What type of nail are you applying to? This product is for artificial nails (ie. acrylics and permanent uv gel nails) only as a acetone proof finish coating and not for use as a coating for natural nails or for use for gel manicure products. There are other products out there that are for natural nail use that are better for sealing nail polish and are made to be compatible with traditional nail polish that stay for almost 3 weeks! What type of uv lamp and bulb wattage are you using? And more important how old are the bulbs. Best uv bulb wattage is the 4- 9 watt uv lamps. Also note this isn't a product that is compatable with " at home uv lamps or LED lamps. Hope to help you. Sounds from your post you are applying to something that the product isn't made for. Cracking comes from improper use and normally comes from placing it on top of nail polish and or as a nail strengthener which it isn't made for and doesn't have the flexibility that natural nails have. Other products on the market for application as a nail polish sealer have a little more flexibility and won't crack.

Yes, works great with an LED light! I'm pretty sure all Gelish products can cure with LED or UV.

Hello. We have a UV lamp. Unfortunately the gel polish is too thick to spread, and is unusable. So the lamp won't make a difference. Very unhappy with our non-refundable purchase.

Hi. I do not use the lamp. In fact, I do not even know what it does. I always thought of this product as a longer lasting nail polish, period . Wish I knew more.

Hi Candice,I use a NailLuv LED lamp that is only 6 volts and it works great. I cure for 1 minute just to be safe, so if your lamp is 12 volts, you should be fine. This is a fabulous product - I have been using it on my nails constantly for the past several months and my nails are longer than ever. FYI, it's great with regular polish too, not just gel. I put on 1 layer of gel foundation & cure, then 1 - 2 layers of structure & cure, then 1 layer of gel top coat & cure - then wipe clean with alcolhol. Then ready to either apply gel or regular color. The regular polish is especially easy to remove and reapply new color without affecting the structure gel! Happy painting! Hi Candice,I use a NailLuv LED lamp that is only 6 volts and it works great.

Hello, if the bulbs ever do go out in the lamp, you should be able to use any other LED Lamp to cure your polish. I would also think that you could also use a UV Lamp, but your curing time may be longer (2-3 minutes instead of the 30 to 40 seconds with LED.). I hope this helps you! Check eBay, Sally's Beauty Supply, or your local Beauty Supply Store.

I can't say I'm 100% sure. It's not needed to achieve a nice set of nails. I did use it to cool my hands before I got the uv gloves. Btw - the gloves are just as awesome as the light!!!
