Precision curing. Anytime. Anywhere. This is the future of curing.

Meet Illuminate — the rechargeable and portable LED gel nail lamp built for nail pros who refuse to compromise. Scientifically engineered from the ground up to cure every TGB system, this next-generation LED nail lamp combines true portability and cordless freedom with cutting-edge technology for flawless results. Four years in the making, designed in-house — this is everything you rely on, rebuilt, redefined, and reimagined.

Top-Tier Technology. Smarter Investment.

Unrivalled Performance: Illuminate was scientifically developed to deliver the same curing efficacy over time, even in high-traffic salons. In an independent lab test our gel nail lamp outperformed every comparable US and UK pro gel lamp. Tested to simulate over 4000 gel manicures back-to-back, Illuminate delivers 6,000 more minutes of curing performance than competitor lamps — equivalent to around 800 additional manicures.*

Illuminate delivers advanced engineering and professional performance — at around 20% less than comparable lamps on the market.**
