The Best Nail Lamp For Nail Art Enthusiasts

by Shirlyn Ramos

With so many options to choose from, picking the best nail lamp is no easy task. You have to consider so many factors, like your budget, the lamp's bulb lifespan, the brand as well as its curing time. If it's your first time to invest in a nail lamp, these things can easily make you feel overwhelmed and confused.

Despite these inconveniences, you still shouldn't miss investing in one, especially if you're into holographic and chrome nails. Nail lamps are designed to cure all gel polish brands so you can get more than just a boring shade on your nails.

If you are still not buying the idea, here are the best nail lamps we can highly recommend to you, naildesigners.

Top 9 Best Nail Lamp For 2017

Coscelia 9W Mini USB Nail Dryer

Coscelia 9W Mini USB Nail Dryer

The Coscelia 9W might be the cheapest nail dryer on this list but don't underestimate it. This nail dryer has a curing lamp that can get the job done, whether it's gel nails or UV top coats. It has a bridge shape design to allow you to set your nails without smudging them.

But, of course, for its price, this will certainly come with issues. Aside from the odd positioning, it can only effectively dry up to three fingers at a time. If you can get past these flaws, the nail dryer still makes a great investment for those who are on a tight budget.

Pros:

  • Very affordable
  • It's lightweight and travel-friendly
  • Works great for the price

Cons:

  • The cord is short
  • Only has 3 small bulbs
  • Has no auto-shut off
