February Untrieds: Nails Inc Trafalgar Square

Hey Guys!

I don't know if this counts as a creme polish, but oh well. Don't forget to check out Amanda and Sarah's untrieds today! 

You know my issue with magnetic polish: It doesn't stick to me. I don't know what it is, but the magnetic lines just don't stay, they fade almost instantly. So when I received this as a Christmas gift, my immediate reaction wasn't excitement but I HAVE TO TRY IT BEFORE I JUDGE IT!

And voila! Nails Inc Trafalgar Square, I'm sorry I ever doubted you. I used 1 coat, waited, then a second coat and the lines stuck! 




Talk to you soon!

Sinful Magnetic Polar Opposites

Hey guys!

If you follow me on Twitter, you've probably heard me bemoan magnetic polish and how it just doesn't work on me. Like, literally, it doesn't work. The magnetic design either doesn't stay or if it does stay for any length of time, it fades like whoa into nothingness. I've tried multiple brands, both inexpensive and expensive; it doesn't matter.

So when I saw Sinful's magnetic, I was like "nope, not gonna try it" but because I have no willpower, I bought one anyway. I'm crazy.

However, I was completely shocked when I tried it and it ACTUALLY WORKED!

I used one coat of Polar Opposites, let it dry, then another coat and immediately used the magnet. I was loving the blue shimmer that was pulling through! So pretty! 






I'm pretty much over magnetic polish as a rule but at least I have one that works on me! LOL

Julep Maven May Box

Hey guys!

Sigh. Just expect these posts to come at the end of the month, lol.

Today I'm showing you the polishes that came in my May Julep Maven box.

First up, Sheryl. This is a gold color, with a slightly frosty finish. I used 3 coats here. No Top coat.




Now we have Kylie. This polish is purple/burgundy magnetic polish and I was kind of not very excited about it because, well... magnetic polish hates me. I've tried a bunch of different brands, followed all of the directions and tips and nothing seems to work for me. So I wasn't expecting much better results with this.

I was wrong! The magnetic lines actually stayed put and didn't fade! I was shocked.

Icing Green Gold Magnetix

Hey guys! Do you have any fun plans for this weekend? My goal is to use as many of the birthday coupons I've received in the last week as possible, haha! I'm a simply person :-p

Today I have the second Icing Magnetix polish that I picked up forever ago. This result was much better than the first time!


 

I love this green gold color. Soooo pretty!

What do you think?

Icing Magnetix Blue

Hey guys!


Alright so this is my first magnetic polish application. I tried several times and this was the best result. I followed the directions but this is how it ended.


When I applied the magnet, the polish was literally pulling up... the magnet was pulling the polish into the air! AND the design didn't stay on several fingers.




I liked how it looked when it was on the nails that weren't all jacked up but... it was kind of a pain. Plus, the brush was super wonky.


Ehh. I'll try again at some point.I have the gold green to try still, plus I see that there is a new green magnetic polish at the Icing. Ohhhhh!!

Have you guys tried magnetic polish yet? What was your experience like?
