Born Pretty Red Cat Magnetic Eye Gel Nail Polish, Reflective Holographic Glitter Shiny Ruby Red 15mL Gel Nail Polish With Magnetic

I originally bought the one labeled "blue". To be honest that one was extremely thick and the magnet basically made all the glitter disappear. I decided to try one more time and got the silver and oh my! I am so impressed! The silver one is the best magnetic gel polish I have ever used. It so vibrant and glittery! If you are newer to this kind of polish and want something that really works, get the silver one. Here in my pics and videos I have it on clear tips. You could put this on any other color you want. Its beautiful! The silver was not overly thick either! I can not stress enough how happy I am that I bought the silver one after the bad experience I had with the blue.

I received a lot of compliments on my nails when I used this. I would suggest practicing before putting it on your nails. Using the magnet for the perfect effect is a little tricky. Too much one way and the cat eye effect is gone. Too little and it just looks sparkly. The color is more red than pink and it’s not really opaque. So I would suggest several layers or start with an opaque base coat. I didn’t not have any chipping so it lasted a good two weeks until my next color change. I didn’t get a photo of my nails when they were done, but this photo of the rock was taken on my Iceland trip and you can see my thumb is slightly see-through with the black sand under my nails.

First of all, it says nowhere in the description that you have to have a UV light to cure this polish. Gel nail polish does not necessarily mean that, I have bought w**mart and $ store polish that is labeled “gel” polish and it dries on its own without the need for UV, so the description is misleading since it does not specify. I was super excited about getting this, the photos are gorgeous so I bought 3 bottles of this magnetic cat eye polish, in 3 different colors, and I bought the separate magnet wand because it was also not made clear that there was any magnet included with the polish. Once I received the polish, I saw that there is a little brass looking magnet cylinder that comes with each bottle, but when I put the polish on and used one, it did nothing and The polish itself did not ever dry or harden. I do not have a UV light so if I had known this was needed, I would have bought one in preparation for getting the polish. Secondly, all 3 bottles are so thick inside that I can’t imagine how it could possibly be functional and also, it would take multiple coats and curing to make it so that you can’t see your nail through the polish. If this were normal polish I’d just put in a couple drops of acetone to thin it out, but I think that would probably ruin the finish of this and possibly the curability under UV so I am throwing this in the trash. My daughter had a bottle of regular magnetic nail polish years ago (no UV required), so I will keep the magnets, buy regular magnetic polish and use them on those.

Lovely shade and very responsive to the magnet.

I'm torn between 3 and 4 stars. Price point, size of the bottle being bigger and the small but mighty magnet I didn't know even came with it are the main positives. Very easy to use as well. What I don't like so much is how extremely thick the polish is. At first I assumed it was just due to being outside in the freezing temps upon delivery but week later when I went finally use it it's still very much thick. I tried setting it in hot water like someone had suggested in their review and it did help a tad. Lastly, and I'm aware the product photos are done on nails with no base color; which I did try I just didn't cure it and didn't get a photo unfortunately, so I did a quick swatch on notebook paper if that even shows well enough and I used the polish on my nails over 5 different base colors to see how it looks and it sadly doesn't really seem to be as advertised. Now it's close, I guess, I see more blue And green instead of blue, purples and pinks which is what I wanted as I have a few chameleon cat eye polished already that look similar. I still think the polish is a pretty and fun one to have so it is what it is. I'll keep searching for one that has the color shift I want I suppose.

Got the blue color and was very impressed with the color shift and finish after a few coats. Tried it with different colors as the base and it seemed to pop the most on white. Color is a bit darker and more blue-leaning than photo is though.

This nail gel surprised me! All i could think was WOW! I always wanted my nails to look like the online versions of cat eye polish ive seen, and this definitely offered that look! Very clear, and that shine is absolutely amazing!!! For the price its definitely worth it and a decent size bottle! This product seemed very smooth for me and glided on correctly, although it is on the thicker side, since it has to hold in the magnetic particles, so be sure to apply thin coats. I put mine over nice covering cyan neon teal color(that i cured fully first and wiped the floating gel), I realized having a fully covered, (make sure its fully covered with no nail bed showing) bright blue underneath, provided the best results because of the reflective properties shining against the back color. I imagine other bright colors would add just as nice results! I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a nice cat eye gel polish! *Note* Be sure to apply thin coats, curing each layer appropriately, remove floating gel after full cure, and use a good shiny top coat for best results*

The color is really beautiful but you have to do too much to get it to work. I’m a professional nail tech and I couldn’t resist the color but I’m disappointed in the quality for sure. Its durability is non existent and the amount you have to apply to the nail to get it to react to the magnet is unrealistic for client nails. I guess that’s what I get for buying a cheap brand off amazon.
