What are the nail dryers and phototherapy lamps used for?

I often hear some familiar words, such as air dryers and phototherapy lamps for nail art, but it is always difficult to distinguish the specific functions and differences. Today I will summarize it with everyone.

The nature of the nail dryer and the phototherapy lamp are similar, and both play the role of drying the nail polish during the manicure process.

The difference is that the working principle of the dryer is the same as that of a household hair dryer. The nail polish can be dried quickly by storing the wind power, and you can use ordinary nail polish.

The phototherapy lamp is used for phototherapy nails. The nail polish is dried by UV laser. It is not suitable for general nail polish, and the advantage is that it lasts for a long time.

Dryer is the earliest drying nail polish machine in the nail industry. With the development of the nail industry, various nail polishes are on the market, and many phototherapy phototherapy lamps, also known as nail phototherapy lamps, are used exclusively in the nail art process. Drying and curing of nail polish glue.

Normal nail polish cannot be dried with a phototherapy lamp. It is thought that it does not have the ingredients of phototherapy glue, which is not only unsightly, but also shrinks the nail polish, produces wrinkles, and damages your nails. Phototherapy lamps are classified into LED lamps and UV lamps according to different light-emitting operating principles.

1) Analysis from a security perspective:

Long-term exposure to UV lamps can cause damage to the eyes, and this damage can be accumulated and irreversible. Therefore, some sisters will find that their hands will become dark and dry when the number of phototherapy is increased!

LED lights are visible light, which is the same as ordinary lighting, and does not harm human skin and eyes. Therefore, from a safety point of view, LED phototherapy lamps have better protection for skin and eyes than UV lamps!

2) Analysis from the perspective of use:

The lamp tube of ordinary UV lamp generates high heat when it emits light, and the temperature is generally 50-70 degrees. If you accidentally touch it, it is easy to burn.

The LED is a cold light source, it will not have the burning sensation of a UV lamp, and it will not feel hot even if you touch the lamp tube with your hand.

Especially for nail lovers who have thinner nails, the burning pain of LED lamps will be slower than that of UV lamps.

3) Analysis from the perspective of performance:

UV lamps can illuminate all brands of phototherapy gel and nail polish. However, LEDs can dry all nail polishes but not necessarily phototherapy gels.

So in terms of omnipotence, the uv lamp is slightly better!

4) Analysis from an economic point of view:

Although the purchase cost of UV lamp is low, there are many hidden dangers, and it is not suitable for long-term use, whether it is a manicurist or a manicure enthusiast!

There are also lamp machines that combine UV lamps and LED lamps on the market. If you have a need for nail polish and phototherapy glue at the same time, you can consider it!

In general, if you are using nail polish products, LED phototherapy lamps are your best choice!

However, if you are using phototherapy gel, you must first see if your phototherapy gel LED light is suitable!
