So I had my first go-around with a magnetic polish! You Move Me from China Glaze Magnetix is a bronzey brown and I did like the final result. It took me a few tries to get my technique down and even then I had several mishaps.
The instructions say to apply one coat and then hold the magnet over your nail for 5-10 seconds. After trial and error here’s what worked for me: I did one coat as a base, let it dry. On my second coat I held the magnet as close to the nail as possible for 30 seconds and a nice design showed up.
The problem I kept running into is I kept touching the magnet to my wet nail, ugh! You can see the spots on my nails where that occurred. I had already done this a few times and did not want to start over again. I did try all three magnet designs and one of the magnets was not great either.
If you have patience and a steady hand this type of nail polish will work well for you. I did enjoy the final result but not enough to do this on a regular basis!

Have you tried any magnetic nail polish lately?
I love the look of this polish but my hands shake quite a bit so I would really make a mess of it.

It was more difficult than I thought to hold the magnet SO CLOSE to my wet nail and not screw it up!
