A nail polish curing device comprises: a lower part having a top surface and a reflective lower recess-defining surface that extends downwardly from the top surface and that defines a lower recess; an upper part disposed above the lower part and having a top wall, a bottom surface, and a reflective upper recess-defining surface that extends upwardly from the bottom surface and that defines an upper recess, the top wall being formed with a plurality of through-holes; a circuit board mounted on the top wall of the upper part; and a plurality of light emitting elements mounted on and electrically connected to the circuit board and extending respectively through the through-holes into the upper recess so as to emit light into the upper and lower recesses.

1. A nail polish curing device comprising: a lower part having a top surface and a reflective lower recess-defining surface that extends downwardly from said top surface and that defines a lower recess;an upper part disposed above said lower part and having a top wall, a bottom surface, and a reflective upper recess-defining surface that extends upwardly from said bottom surface and that defines an upper recess, said top wall confining an upper side of said upper recess-defining surface and being formed with a plurality of through-holes;a circuit board mounted on said top wall of said upper part; anda plurality of spaced apart light emitting elements mounted on and electrically connected to said circuit board and extending respectively through said through-holes into said upper recess so as to emit light into said upper recess;wherein said lower recess-defining surface reflects light emitted from said light emitting elements to said upper recess-defining surface in different directions, and said upper recess-defining surface reflects the reflected light from said lower recess-defining surface toward a user's one finger that is placed on said lower recess-defining surface in different directions. 2. The nail polish curing device of claim 1, wherein said lower recess-defining surface is curved in shape, and at least a portion of said upper recess-defining surface is curved in shape. 3. The nail polish curing device of claim 1, wherein said light emitting elements are arranged in such a manner that one of said light emitting elements is centrally surrounded by the remaining ones of said light emitting elements. 4. The nail polish curing device of claim 3, wherein said lower part further has a front wall that is formed with a lower front opening, and said upper apart further has a front wall that is formed with an upper front opening; wherein said upper part is pivoted to said lower part so as to be rotatable relative to said lower part about an axis between first and second angular positions;wherein when said upper part is disposed at the first angular position relative to said lower part, said upper and lower recesses overlap along a vertical direction and cooperate with each other to define an accommodating space in said nail polish curing device, and said upper and lower front openings overlap along the vertical direction and cooperate with each other to define an inlet opening of said nail polish curing device that is in spatial communication with said accommodating space, thereby permitting insertion of one finger of a user into said accommodating space via said inlet opening and enabling the fingernail of said one finger to be spaced apart from said one of said light emitting elements substantially by a predetermined distance in the vertical direction when said one finger is placed on said recess-defining surface of said lower part with the fingernail facing upwardly, the vertical direction being parallel to the axis; andwhen said upper part is disposed at the second angular position relative to said lower part, said upper and lower recesses do not overlap along the vertical direction, and said upper and lower front openings do not overlap along the vertical direction, thereby facilitating insertion of one toe of one foot of the user into an irradiating space between said bottom surface of said upper part and a reference surface on which the foot rests and permitting the toenail of said one toe to be spaced apart from said one of said light emitting elements in the vertical direction substantially by a distance close to the predetermined distance. 5. The nail polish curing device of claim 4, further comprising two first clamping arms that are diametrically disposed and that extend downwardly from said bottom surface of said upper part in the vertical direction, said lower part further having a bottom wall and a pivot shaft that extends upwardly from said bottom wall in the vertical direction, and that is formed with a pivot hole, which extends through said top surface of said lower part in the vertical direction and which is defined by a hole-defining wall, said pivot shaft extending into said pivot hole and being spaced apart from said hole-defining wall, said first clamping arms extending into said pivot hole and being disposed between and in frictional contact with said hole-defining wall and said pivot shaft so as to clamp said pivot shaft and so as to permit rotation of said upper part relative to said lower part about the axis, said first clamping arms being in snap-fit engagement with said pivot shaft. 6. The nail polish curing device of claim 5, further comprising two second clamping arms that are diametrically disposed, that extend downwardly from said bottom surface of said upper part in the vertical direction, and that are angularly displaced with said first clamping arms, said pivot shaft having upper and lower portions and a flange that is disposed between and that protrudes outwardly and radially from said upper and lower portions, each of said first clamping arms having a hook end, said hook ends of said first clamping arms clamping said lower portion of said pivot shaft and being in snap-fit engagement with said flange, said second clamping arms extending into said pivot hole and being disposed between and in frictional contact with said hole-defining wall and said upper portion of said pivot shaft so as to clamp said upper portion of said pivot shaft. 7. The nail polish curing device of claim 4, wherein said bottom surface of said upper part overlaps and contacts said upper surface of said lower part along the entire length of said lower part when said upper part is disposed at the first angular position relative to said lower part.
