Following last nights trip to the launch of The Saturday's Magnetism Nail Lacquer range, I couldn't wait to get home and try it out myself.
When the nail technicians were doing it last night, it looked really easy and I thought to myself that maybe doing it yourself at home could get a little messy or not
create the effect as perfectly as they were creating it- but it really does work so easily.
It's very simple and is complete with 3 easy steps:
1. Shake the bottle to awaken the Magnetism
2. Apply two coats- preferably apply the second after the first is fully dry (I'm too impatient for this). As soon as you have applied the second coat, move on to step 3.
3. Hover the Magnetized magnet over the nail whilst it is still wet- do not allow it to touch the nail as you will end up with a smudged mess. Hover it for about 8 seconds and wait for nails to dry.
Voila!
The FashionistA colours that I used- Ego Green and All fired up Red dried so quickly so realistically I could have waited for the first coat to totally dry before applying the second but never mind.
For my first attempt, I think that they came out pretty well. There not perfect but to be honest with this kind of effect they don't have to be- you don't really want them all too matching.
(Excuse the messy cuticles)
I'm not sure if this is a design I would necessarily always wear, but I do think it will become very popular and I can't wait to try more magnets for different effects.
What do you think? Will you be rocking the magnetism?
