Essence Magnetics in Copper


One of my wonderful followers, Kayleigh, sent me a box of goodies this week and inside included a couple of my biggest lemmings...magnetic polishes. I got 2 of the Essence metallics and needless to say, they were the first to be swatched.

This is one coat of Copper Rulez. Following Kayleigh's advice I did one thick layer and immediately put the magnet over the nail as close as I could for about 30 seconds. On each finger I tried to place the magnet at a different angle (which is trickier than you think), and I don't think my first attempt is not too bad...no??

    Cute! I got my first Essence Magnetics earlier this week... I got Magic Wand and Pixie Dust! They're so fun! I tried to do the diagonal thing too... it is VERY tricky! You did great for a first shot... at least you managed to get 4 good fingers in a row! lol

    Yours came out really well, better than mine I think! I had trouble because I kept whacking my nail off the magnet. Very irritating!!

    Love this polish. I've never had a magnetic polish. I like how you made the stripes go in different directions.
