What are the statistics for this damage ? i think cnd have had a rough time on here lately but if your unlucky enough to have a faulty lamp and no spare what choice do you have but to use a generic lamp ?
What'a the worst that could happen? Take a look below, never mind a possible law suit.
The facts are that all UV cured product 'appear to the naked eye to be cured' even when they are only 50% cured.
When products continue to be only 50% cured then over exposure, and allergy caused by un-cured reactive product can happen. It looks like this below. ... This photo was posted today on another nail forum by someone using Blue Sky. They were asking why???
This is allergy.
This is also what happens when you repeatedly use a product that is not fully cured, but you think it 'looks' OK. No one can SEE full cure with their eyes. Which is why CND insist on using the lamp that they KNOW cures their system, CND Shellac. That, my friends, is being responsible.
Why take the chance on using a lamp that you cannot tell cures whatever it is that you are using? Is it the money to buy the right lamp? If someone sues you for causing a condition like this photo shows it could cost allot more than just buying the right lamp.
Allergy does not happen overnight ... An allergic reaction is the result of repeatedly wearing product that is not fully cured. Come on ! Use your heads. It's not worth taking the risk.

so did the lady paint it on the bottom of her fingers instead of the nail surface.......? i believe blue sky sells millions of bottles all over the world and south east Asia is its biggest market and is used successfully this looks more like chemical burn more likely from the acetone removal but hay it is a picture would need more scientific evidence
if this can occur from uv products any brand well then i think there needs to be warnings on the bottles so all the consumer brands being sold out there to the public are aware of this
I haven't mentioned a specific brand. I have just pointed out an image of one persons problem with a knock off non profession product .. It's not a pro brand it's a cheap knock off product available to anyone .. But if it offends you I will delete the name now.you are bang on there re technicians getting more allergies since the luanch of all branded uv polish it is just i don't feel it nice to mention specific brand as it is happening with all brands i

Trouble is geeg, if people are losing business they're going to have to take a chance ? If it's using a generic lamp temporarily or losing your business, I know what I would do.
I'm not stirring, just interested to see people's opinions or risk taking ( I am a risk taker :Scared:, )
I do feel for cnd tho I think your taking a hammering over the lamp thing.
the thing is not everyone knows onions even when there eyes are watering
example a family member came to see me i gave them a gel polish and they went back home which was in another county (150 miles away)
so i had told her the brand and the removal process (so she could inform her tech when it was time for removal)so she went to the tech stated the brand stated the removal the tech stated she had trained with another brand and only knew how to remove that brands polish .....?please..?
so what did she do she said i will buff them down and just go over them....?
another lady, during a demo a pro beauty last year, a tech was demonstrating how to remove one nail that had been applied with gel polish ,he wrapped one and proceeded to soak ..?then a lady said so would you do that with all ten then ......(what?) ,what i said is no you do one and all ten will just drop off ... oh she said? ...no they won't of course you have to wrap all ten i said ...are you even a tech i asked her ,yes she said its just i use another brand ....
altough a lot of techs are very clever i am not convinced there is a balance and i guess i will put my tin hat on now ....lolxx
Isn't it the under-exposure rather than the over-exposure which is more dangerous? Correct me if I'm wrong, that's just what I thought.
Do you mean under-curing? Over exposure in this sense means when under-cured product comes into contact with the skin, and it is that which can lead to allergies x
I did a Gelish mani on a client and while I was away on hols she wanted it removed so went to said salon. Guess what? They peeled it off. Just took a corner and peeled away, along with a layer of her natural nail!! I was completely gobsmacked.
Want to hear a true story of over exposure? About 4 years ago I got brought a fel polish kit and tried and tested it all out whilst training, ooh what fun, a low watt uv lamp and some questionable gels what cpuld wrong?
Fast forward two years and I can't wear hard gels. Or soak off gels. And 99% of acrylic systems. I only played around with those gels for a few months and the repercussions are for life. If I even have any contact with hard gels or lower range acrylic systems my hands become inflamed, blistered and bone itching for weeks.
So just think about the undercuring you might be doing. Unless you love taking anti histamines and steriod cream daily.

I'm a hairdresser that became suddenly allergic to different products, sore itchy skin, blisters etc, I was on steroids and now have to use steroid creams but it wasn't for any particular reason, my dermatologist said it can just happen out of the blue, no rhyme or reason, just like how I suddenly became allergic to my family cat !
What I'm saying is that you could use a washing powder, hand cream, body lotion etc and have a reaction and become allergic, just because your problems started whilst you were playing with gel doesn't necessarily mean that it was a rubbish lamp or under curing that caused your reaction.
