Debunking Gel Allergy Myths: How to Test Lamps Safely and Use the Right System | The Nail Audit

Описание: In this episode of The Nail Audit, I’m taking a deep dive into one of the most common concerns I see in the nail community — gel allergies and curing safety.

This video was inspired by a submission from a subscriber who tested Light Elegance P+ gels in the LE Dot lamp and started worrying that her darker colors weren’t curing — and that she might have been unknowingly exposing herself to uncured product.

In this episode, I break down why her curing experiment gave misleading results, what actually happens when you cure on different surfaces, and how to approach nail product testing safely and logically — without falling into fear-based thinking.

I also share my “3 S’s of Safety” framework for risk management in nail care:
Source, System, and SOP — the three things that will dramatically reduce your chances of ever running into curing issues, product sensitivity, or allergy risks.

Plus, I compare oligomer-based vs. monomer-heavy formulas (like Attain Adhesion) and explain why forgiveness in well-tested professional systems matters far more than at-home experiments ever could.

If you’ve ever worried about lamp performance, curing safety, or gel allergies, this video will help you reset your perspective — and enjoy nail care with confidence and logic again.

✅ What You’ll Learn in This Video
– Why testing gels on a white plastic lid gives false curing results
– How UV energy interacts differently with natural nails vs. solid surfaces
– What residue and inhibition layers really mean (hint: not undercuring!)
– Why home “experiments” can’t replicate controlled lab conditions
– How to tell if your LED/CFL lamp is performing properly
– My 3 S’s of Safety for risk mitigation:
• Source – buy from trusted, scientifically tested brands
• System – always use the complete lamp + gel + top system together
• SOP – follow manufacturer directions exactly as written
– How product forgiveness protects you from small human errors
– The difference between oligomer and monomer gel formulas
– Why your LE Dot lamp and P+ gels are performing as intended
– How to balance awareness and critical thinking — without fear
