1. A fingernail gel curation apparatus comprising:
- an enclosure,means for insertion of an individual'"'"'s hand into the enclosure,a plurality of ultraviolet lights located within the enclosure,power means to provide power to the light located within the enclosure,wherein the light is used to provide heat to the individual'"'"'s handwherein the enclosure further comprises;
a base, the base having a rectangular shape,a right upper door pivotally attached to the base,a left upper door pivotally attached to the base,wherein the apparatus further comprises;
a first pair of hinges, the first pair of hinges being used to allow the right upper door to be pivotally attached to the base, anda second pair of hinges, the second pair of hinges being used to allow the left upper door to be pivotally attached to the base,wherein the means for insertion of an individual'"'"'s hand into the enclosure further comprises;
a first indentation in the left upper door,a second indentation in the right upper door,wherein folding both doors in an upward fashion causes the first indentation and the second indentation to form a central hole, wherein the hole is of sufficient size to allow an individual to place his or her hand through the central hole,wherein the apparatus further comprises;
an ultraviolet light located within the base,a glass covering located within the base, the glass covering designed to cover the ultraviolet light,wherein the ultraviolet light located within the base is connected to the power means to provide power to the lights located within the enclosure,wherein the apparatus further comprises means for controlling the power means to the ultraviolet light located within the base,wherein the means for controlling the power means to the ultraviolet light located within the base further comprises an on/off switch, the on/off switch acting as a circuit in between the power means and the ultraviolet light, the on/off switch itself being a two-position switch comprising an “
on”
position and an “
off”
position, wherein when in the “
on”
position, the switch acts as a closed circuit, thereby allowing power to travel between the power means and the ultraviolet light, thereby allowing the ultraviolet light to receive power and emit ultraviolet light, further wherein when in the “
off”
position, the switch acts as an open circuit, thereby preventing power from traveling between the power means and the ultraviolet light, thereby preventing the ultraviolet light from receiving power and emitting ultraviolet light,wherein the apparatus further comprises;
a second ultraviolet light, the second ultraviolet light being located within the left upper door,a second power source, the second power source being attached to the second ultraviolet light, the second power source providing power to the second ultraviolet light, anda first glass top located within the left upper door, the first glass top designed to cover the second ultraviolet light,wherein the apparatus further comprises;
a third ultraviolet light, the third ultraviolet light being located within the right upper door,a third power source, the third power source being attached to the third ultraviolet light, the third power source providing power to the third ultraviolet light, anda second glass top located within the right upper door, the second glass top designed to cover the third ultraviolet light,wherein the apparatus further comprises means for opening and closing the left upper door and the right upper door,wherein the means for opening and closing the left upper door and the right upper door further comprises;
a left knob attached to the left upper door,a right knob attached to the right upper door,wherein an individual can grasp the left knob and the right knob to open or close the left upper door and the right upper door.

Abstract
A fingernail gel curation apparatus that allows an individual to rapidly cure and dry fingernail gel that has been applied to their fingertips, thereby saving time for individuals and preventing unnecessary ultraviolet light exposure. The apparatus includes a base and two folding upper lid portions that are pivotally attached to the base. The base and each of the upper lid portions each have a UV light that is protected by glass layer so personal contact is not made. When the upper lid portions are closed over the base, a hand hole is present to allow an individual to insert their hand through in order to receive UV light being emitted from the UV lights within the apparatus. The UV light will help to dry fingernail gel applied to the individual'"'"'s fingernails in a faster manner than doing nothing, thereby saving an individual time.
