1 coat
Pull me close is from the China Glaze - Magnetix collection 2012. It's a light blue and silver shimmer and when the magnet is applied it pulls black (iron particles?) to the top making the pattern. The China Glaze magnet is in a horse shoe shape and has three designs; diagonal lines, chevron and a star. I forgot to take a photo of the magnet separately so I'll put a picture of it in tomorrow's post. I tried these out a few times and wasn't getting a very strong design. It think it was because the polish was too thick. For this picture I used one coat. It was a little sheer but when the design comes up it covers that.
Here's a photo of how I hold the magnet. This is the view I see when I look at it. I find it easier to get close to the magnet without touching it when I hold it like this. I also found it helps to blow on your nail while your holding it to help dry the polish. Sometimes the design fades as the polish dries.
Nice! Turned out great :)
ReplyDeleteYeah - I blow on mine as the magnet is there too! These turned out great.
