Nails Inc Trafalgar Square (Magnetic)

Hey girls... I just realized my blogiversary is coming up! I'll be a blogger for one full year on the 5th of January. Hmm, not sure how I'll celebrate! Any ideas?

Anyway, today I have for you my very first magnetic polish (okay, that's not true - I have four Essence ones that I haven't tried yet because I was waiting for this magnet!). This is from the ever-famous Nails Inc line, and this is the gray one. My BFF got me this for Christmas and I'm IN LOVE :)

I started with two coats of the polish, then right after the second coat was applied, I held the magnet up. You could literally watch the magnet working! So cool. I went with a horizontal stripe pattern since it was my first time trying this out, and it came out really cool.



One of my clients even noticed and she told me local salons were charging $5 per nail to do magnetic nail polish! Boy, sometimes I think I have an expensive hobby, but when you look at it that way, I'm saving money! :)

xoxo,
Amanda

I just got this polish for christmas. I am so torn between trying new glitters, flakies and now my two magnetic polishes I don't know what to do first :)

That's a tough one! I'd go for glitter but that's my choice most of the time ;) Maybe wear one each day for the week?

Love magnetic polishes!! I can't believe the salon is charging that much! And per nail? You're so right. We are sooo saving money, lol

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

See, it's economical! I'll have to go buy more ;)

Looks good. I have a Layla magnetic polish but I haven't tried it yet.... I'm lazy, lol.

I have a couple patches on my nails so glitter removal would be a pain... I have been doing glitter on my ring fingers as accents though. I do love my glitter polishes.

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

Thanks Sarah!

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

Which color?! I want to try those but they are soooo pricey!

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

I hate that! Darn patches! At least you can still do accents though - and they add interest!

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...
