The truth about UV sterilizer boxes

Why those glowing UV boxes do not actually sterilize nail tools.

Those glowing UV boxes look professional. Most of them do not actually sterilize nail tools.

UV light must hit every surface directly. Nail clippers, scissors and pushers have corners and overlapping parts that stay in shadow. Dust on the glass also blocks the light.

We do not rely on them. We use proper methods instead.
