And now I introduce you .. the magnetic nail polish…
Imagnet art, by Tommy G.
….A little info about Tommy G.…
Again, Tommy G is a Greek brand producted within EU. It’s part of a bigger company that produces some more cosmetics . You can find their English website here.
I like their nail polishes a lot, and I love the Keratin base coat, which made my nails hard as rock 🙂 (their sub-brand layla has also very nice nail polishes that last a lot to my nails)
Now, the Imagnet …
(Right-Click + View image to see them full-size)
I have purchase the nail polish in 2 colors (so far). Silver/grey and burgundy/pink. How the nail is going to look is that the cap , and its pretty accurate, I must say…
The secret lies not only in the ingridients of the nail polish (I guess), but also at the magnet in the top of the cap. The shape you are going to have is depended on how you ll hold the cap…
Enough with the theory now… Let’s see it in action….
For start, I applied ”Nail envy” from OPI as a base coat to my ugly looking nails…
I put one layer (you can add more if you want) of the magnetic nail laquer and immidiately (before it starts drying), I put the magnet as shown in the picture. The direction that the ”line” of the magnet has, determines the pattern…
As you can see, before having the magnet THAT close to the nail, is simply a nail polish. A metallic nail polish (of course you can wear it just like that, but I find it pointless to use this polish for the wrong reasons..anyway…)
Here are the angles I tried to some of my nails…
You can do more ”complicated” nail art, by painting your nail in steps, like I did.. (Clumsily, I must admit)
I decided to make to make the simple sided pattern, so here is the final look :
I think they look very nice (the final look, not my awfully looking hands with the tones of cuticles there). Its a very unique result, with no effort, that costs around 7€.
What do you think?
See you soon.
Lots of Love
