In the fast paced arena of beauty innovations, the Opal UV Lash System stands at the front lines, promising not only enhanced Lash ability but also a steadfast commitment to safety. As we at Lash Apothecary bring you the latest innovations, we want you to rest assured we have done and will continue to do our due diligence in bringing you the utmost latest LED Lash System not just as a Lash service enhancement tool, but also as a greener, safer, and cleaner type of application.
OPERATION AND ALLERGY CONSIDERATIONS:
The Opal UV LED system redefines the lash extension experience. Its operation relies on a seamless interaction between the specially formulated adhesive and the specific wavelengths in the provided LED light, providing a swift and efficient application.While the adhesive does still contain cyanoacrylate, the rapid curing process performed by this system minimizes the fumes which in turn minimizes the risk of sensitization, making it a favorable choice for most clients.
SAFETY ASSURANCE:
The Opal UV system has been through quite rigorous testing and a low-level UV of 395-400nm, declared safe for both eyes and skin, the FDA even suggest that your cell phone is doing more harm to your eyes than the output of the Opal lamp. With certifications including CE, FCC, ROHS, LVD, and EMC, endorsed by third-party testing, the system has shown time and time again to exceed safety standards.The Opal System ensures safe operation as long as used correctly and instructions are followed. The inclusion of blue light safety glasses and UV blocking silicone eyepads add to the layers of protection, making the procedure secure and comfortable. Where these are not explicitly required to use during the procedure. It is a preference on whether or not they are used.
LIFESPAN AND APPLICATION:
The impressive lifespan of the lamp, approximately 10,000 hours, ensures longevity and reliability. Users can continue using their LED lamp without concerns about compatibility, as the adhesive requires a specific kind of light for optimal curing.In terms of application, maintaining a recommended distance of 4-6 inches between the light and the working area ensures the best results, emphasizing efficiency and efficacy.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY AND EFFICIENCY:
To address common frustrations with humidity, temperature, and dry times, the UV Lash System becomes a game-changer.
1. Light Output Comparison:
Although the concept is the same as other UV light uses in the beauty industry. The LED light used is 5 watts, significantly less powerful than a nail light (50+ watts) or a tanning bed (1500-2000 watts). This is proof that the Opal lamp was not designed to penetrate tissue, simply to be seen by our patented UV blend in our adhesive.
2. Exposure Duration:
The duration of exposure is minimal. With 2 seconds of light per pedal press, applying 100 lashes results in just over 3 minutes of total exposure.
3. Additional Safety Measures:
The low wattage ensures minimal impact. This is to ensure the client's eyes remain closed during the procedure. Looking directly into the light is not recommended.
4. UV Spectrum Explanation:
The term "UV" is used because the LED light operates within the wavelengths of the UV family, around 395nm. It emits light within the UV spectrum, despite being an LED light. UV refers to the type of light seen and not the LED creating said light.
5. Photobiology Significance:
multiple independent Lab tests reveal minimal photobiology (the impact a light, whether natural or artificial has on a living organism) significance when compared to a flashlight that can range from 50+ watts, establishing the Opal UV System as a safe choice.
