Nail polish dryers commonly emit ultraviolet A (UVA) light, but the effects of this irradiation on mammalian cells remain unclear. Here, the authors examine the effects of UVA irradiation by a nail polish dryer on the genomes of mammalian cell lines, finding high levels of reactive oxygen species and related mutational signatures.
