What is a curing lamp used for?

Acrylic nails
Gel nails
Applying nail polish
Strengthening nails

The correct answer is: Gel nails

A curing lamp is a special type of lamp that is used by nail technicians to harden and cure gel nail products. These products typically require UV or LED light to set and harden, and a curing lamp provides the specific type of light needed for this process. Acrylic nails and nail polish do not require a curing lamp to be applied, and strengthening nails is not the purpose of a curing lamp. Therefore, these options are incorrect. Gel nails are the only option that specifically mentions a type of nail product that requires a curing lamp, making it the correct answer.
