meh time to buy a professional grade lamp [SEP] this has one of the highest wattages of all led nail lamps so i figure it ll work better than the i already have plus the ones the salons use are too pricey and have less voltage long story short it seems to cure well hardening the polish better than my lamp i m really rough on my hands due to laundry dishes and constant hand washing so only time will tell my only complaint so far is the bottom is really loose that it comes off easily i was moving it from the counter to the table and the bottom fell right offupdate it s only been days since i did my nails and they re already starting to bubble some have already started peeling updated my review from stars to i wore gloves during dish washing so i hope the heat trapped inside the gloves wasn t the cause i always apply thin layers and cap the free edges so my technique is solid i m going to bite the bullet and spend the money on a professional lamp
