 Works for Shellac CND nailsJan 19, 2011
By Stephanie Hodges
"Arbonne girl"
After reading the reviews, I purchased this UV dryer. I just wanted to leave a little more feedback on this dryer in regards to shellac nail polish. I bought this product to do my own nails. I am not a nail tech, but fully capable of doing my own nails. So here is what I did, I purchased the shellac scrub fresh nail prep, shellac UV base coat, shellac red barroness nail color, shellac UV top coat and this dryer all from Amazon sellers. Here is what I did step by step and it worked.
1. Follow Shellac's instruction on how to prep nails and use products-go to their website. I shape my nails and cuticles, then use scrub fresh to clean and dehydrate.
2. SHAKE the UV base coat for two minutes and paint both hands! I didn't shake well the the first time and the base coat and nail color came out too thick.
3. I put nails under light to cure for 30 seconds. Nails will feel tacky (not dry) and this is normal. Has to do with oxygenation with curing.
4. Shake color -paint one coat of color on both hands and put under light for two minutes-nails will feel tacky. This is normal.
5. Shake color-paint second coat of color on both hands and put under light for two minutes-nails will feel tacky. This is normal.
6. Shake top coat-paint top coat on nails-place under dryer for two minutes. Use 99% alcohol to remove tacky layer on top coat. I used 70% alcohol pads and this worked fine! A tiny bit of nail color streak came off on alcohol pad but I continued on removing tacky layer. When I was finished, nails were perfectly cured. Polish has been on for 10 days and still look brand new. If nails lose their shine due to lotion...-wife off with alcohol pad and they look brand new.
7. When ready to take off-either soak off with 100%acetone on cotton balls with aluminum foil or soak fingers in acetone. I wouldn't bother with the CND pad removers.
Bottom line-this lamp works great for Shellac nails-no need to buy $200 plus one. You will read so many mixed reviews about why you shouldn't be doing it yourself and using anything but the CND dryer, but this is what worked for me.
Good Luck

"Happy to Serve"
WOW it's big. The two hander was the same price at the one hander so I got the two hander. It's pretty honkin. My main complaint it that it only has 2 and 3 minute auto timer and I would really like a 1 minute which I think it claims to have) for doing the OPI Axxium. Works very well.
UPDATE! 7 months later.
Axxium is too hard to take off so I've started using CND Shellac. FANTASTIC, but don't let them snow you that you need the "official" CND light. I use this bad boy and get two weeks of perfect wear out of my Shellac. Love this light. Also the OPI light is $200+ and you can only do 4 fingers at a time and thumb seperately. lame. LOVE THIS LIGHT

Great lamp and perfect for UV nail polish!!Nov 14, 2010
By Reviews on Amazon
I was fed up with my nail polish chipping, over acrylics so tried UV polish...loved it - nail polish that stays shiny and does not chip off for at least 2 weeks - what was not so appealing was the fact that it cost $40 plus tip locally!
After doing some research I decided to purchase the CND Shellac nail polish / base coat and top coat which require a UV lamp to set the colors. I paid $180 for all items - polish and lamp which is not bad, as by polish number 5 I will be saving my cash!
CND has an official lamp with a rather high price tag, so I saw this, reviews looked good so decided to give it a try!
It has three settings: 2 minutes, 3 minutes and constant. It also does come with the three bulbs it needs (be careful as they are tucked away in the box and I almost missed them!
It is a good size - you can fit two hands or two feet in at the same time so it allows you to complete your UV process much faster! Similar lamps tend to be smaller - and more expensive!
It works perfectly for these UV polish systems and set my color just fine with no need for a repeat cure. Your nails will feel tacky at the end of the process, but simply follow directions, wipe your nails with an alcohol pad and you will be good to go - the lamp does the trick perfectly.
If you are looking for a UV lamp to use with UV polish systems, this is a great choice - good price, several settings, and large enough to cut time off your mani's!

Really like this -2 hands!!!!Feb 20, 2010
By Bay Lady

I have now used it 5 times...and really appreciate that I can place 2 hands in at the same time. And it is not too big, so that I can place it in a cabinet when not in use.

Saves me time and money!Jul 04, 2011
By miss_betty
After much research, I decided to buy this UV lamp system. I did not want a lamp shipped from Hong Kong.
and I wanted a brand name. I saw this lamp sold on some nail websites for much more than the $60 some odd dollars it was here.
Some tips for using this with Gel Nails.
1. Always mix the bottles, I have had the nails flake off after about a week because the polish was not well mixed.
2. I use the Harmony / Gelish pH balance before I put the base coat on. This basically takes any moisture or oils out of your nail and makes them an acidic pH. Its cheap too
3. Gelish Basecoat , a very thin layer and dry for 1 to 2 min. This lamp does not have a one minute timer .... I wish it did
4. Polish Coat.... again a very thin layer and BE SURE to try and wrap the polish around to the top edge of your nail. This creates a seal and will cause less chipping. Be sure to dry for the full two mintues for each coat. Do a three minute dry if you are using a dark polish
5. Gelish Top Coat.... this bring you the shine you want. Super thin layers are key and wrap that top coat over the edge/ tip of your nail.
Hope this helps
