errmm no, wouldnt really give of enought heat or direct heat, an infra red lamp is what you need for minx x

Minx works when u use heat (infra red) shellac lamp is uv light it doesn't produce the heat u need. They are completely different concepts. There are a few threads about alternative infra red lamps on here. I have the minx black one in my salon and a small one for mobile work and to do my own at home which works just as well. Hth x

I also have the black Minx lamp in my salon. I use a high powered hairdryer when doing it mobile. It works well.
