CND nail lamp replacement

[Blushbeautytherapy]

Arghhhhhh! Dropped and broke my CND shellac light last night. Absolutely gutted!
I am now needing a replacement- just wondered if anyone had tried a different brand LED lamp to cure Shellac?
I'm going to need to replace it but the CND one is just too expensive for me at the moment.
Thank you in advance x

The only lamp that is guaranteed to completely and correctly cure Shellac is the CND UV or LED lamp. Using any other lamp will not give a complete cure and risks overexposing your clients and quite possibly invalidating your insurance. I know they aren't cheap but it really isn't worth the risk of using another brands lamp [emoji4]

It's really not worth going cheap. If you replace with anything other than the approved CND lamp you are risking breakdown of service, peeling, chipping, lifting etc and also exposing your clients to potentially undercured products which can cause reactions and allergies. You also wouldn't be following manufacturers instructions, which is an insurance requirement, and therefore would invalidate your insurance.

So to save a few quid now on a lamp could lose you clients (and therefore money) and also if you get sued because a client develops an allergy your insurance would be invalid therefore you'd have to personally cover any costs. Be cheaper to buy the correct lamp I reckon

And you'll spend more money and time fixing the repairs in the long run

wouldn't risk getting an improper cure, clients walking out and their shellac melting off will really not go down well! Does your lamp not have a warranty
