Personalized smart nail art system that prevents skin aging using the structural function of the hand and improves blood flow at the bottom of the hand

The present invention relates to a smart nail art system, and more particularly, by curing a gel-type paint for nail art using UV LED, increases the drying efficiency and quality of nail art, and prevents aging of the skin of the hand due to UV In addition, it prevents damage caused by UV to various parts such as the eyes to perform safe nail art, and prevents skin aging using the structural function of the hand that contributes to health promotion through the improvement of blood flow in the palm due to the effective wavelength of the LED and a personalized smart nail art system to which a palm blood flow enhancement function is applied.

In general, nail art is a kind of work that cleans nails or toenails, and expresses artistic sense by putting shapes or pictures on nails or toenails. there is a trend

Such nail art is not limited to simply trimming nails or toenails and painting various colors of polish, but is growing in various ways according to the method of decorating nails or toenails using various materials. The nail art method consists of hand painting, which draws enamel or acrylic paint directly on the nails or toenails, an airbrush that creates a gradation with color ink spray using a machine, and a design using tape and making a hole in the nail or toenail. There are three-dimensional designs that make three-dimensional designs using nail jewelry piercings and acrylic powder.

In such nail art work, a process for drying the decorated area is required because a process of applying a protective coating or attaching various decorative materials is followed in addition to the work of painting for color expression.

As a drying device used for conventional nail art, Korean Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-2012-0119304 discloses a “drying device for nail art”, which includes a body made of a circular band to be worn on a wrist or ankle; a thermoelectric module installed in the body to generate hot or cold air; A blower that blows hot or cold air generated by the thermoelectric module: extends in the longitudinal direction along the outside of a finger or toe from one side of the main body to provide a supply passage for transmitting hot or cold air blown by the blower It includes; one support part.
