I’d recommend a desk lamp over the smaller one in the kit below, that way you don’t have to worry about getting your finger under it. More flexibility and easier to cure

The original kit that I purchased. Love that it comes with a really good nail file, UV lamp, and clippers. Definitely worth the money and it’s great for beginners.
