How many of you love to get your nails done? How about gel nails, have you tried those yet? I actually tried them about a year or more ago, and I loved them! They make your nails look so much nicer. I’ve always been surprised at how they dry very quickly. It’s amazing to see that and to see how great they look when they get done. You may also be surprised how long they actually last. I’ve had my gel nails last a lot longer than regular nail polish.
Did you know that the uv rays from getting your gel nails dried are actually harmful to your skin? I’ve seen a lot of people put their hands under those lights, and it’s doing more harm than anything. Each gel manicure is equivalent to being in the direct sun for approximately 21 to 40 minutes. Have you ever thought about using some kind of glove that can help protect your hands from the uv’s? The youveeshield is a great options for those that love the gel polish.
Youveeshield will block about 99.9% of the uv rays. That’s a lot more helpful for your skin to keep it looking more healthy. They have a UPF 50+ certificate issued by Solar Light Company. The .003 inch shield is made of FDA- approved materials including titanium dioxide, giving the shield its white color and UV blocking capabilities. The reflections from the glove at 365nm (UVA) are negligible for both the LED and UV Lamp sources. This means that the light is not “bouncing” out of the lamp because of the Shield.
If you enjoy getting your nails done by using gel polish, I hope that you’ll think about protecting your hands by using the youveeshield. Our readers get 15% off using the code “fall2016”, go here YouVeeShield I saw the prices, and they’re a great price! It all depends on how many you get, but they are $1 or less for one!

That glove sounds like a great solution. I would if places that do nails will supply them in the future for customers who want them.

That is so great! I never thought about the effect those UV lights could have on my skin. Thanks.
You’re welcome!
This sounds like a great product to have. This is information that people need to know.
I agree. I’m glad to share about it.
I get gel nails and didn’t know about all that UV exposure. I will have to see about getting these.
They seem to be great for helping out with the uv’s too!
I have never had gel nails. I think they are very pretty.
They are!
I am going to tell my friend about this, she had all sorts of problems with putting her hands under the UV light. This is a great idea.
Great. Thanks for sharing with her!
I did Gel nails for 12 years. My clients would have loved this. I will have to share this with my nail tec friends.
Great! Thanks for sharing.
Oh wow! I never really thought about the UV rays at the nail salon. This is a great product to help protect our skin!
It sure is! Anything to protect your skin.
What a great idea!! I have never seen these before, but would love them getting my nails done, I didn’t realize how harmful the uv lights are.
They do seem great! Specially for those getting their nails done often.
Would you believe I have never had a manicure before?? These would be great for getting nails done and preventing skin damage.
I’ve never had one either, but I’ve done the gel nails by myself before. They’re great.

Sounds very interesting! I had no idea! Thank you for sharing it!

I have a package from my auntie she gave me a gel polishes and a UV dryer I wonder why I need to cover my hands except from my nails. Now I know that is so harmful on our skin.
I’m glad to share about it. It doesn’t really surprise me that the uv’s are harmful though.
I love having my nails done, but I didn’t know that those lights are harmful. Thanks for the info. Hope they’d start giving customers those shields.
You’re welcome! I’m glad you know about the shields now!
I should share this with a friend of mine who actually has an addiction with gel polishes – I wasn’t a fan of it eversince due to my lack of patience lol.
I actually love gel nail polish. I thought it really looked nice!
I had no idea that those lights were so harmful. I am glad that I don’t get manicures or pedicures very often.
Same here. I’ve never had one before actually.
This looks like a great way to protect your nails. I do not like having my nails done or painted, except for a pedicure.
It sure does. I think it’s important to protect your skin.
I am wondering about the gel nails, it’s dry so fast and I didn’t know that is harmful on our skin. Thanks for the good information
