My First Experience with Magnetic Polish

Hello new blogger layout! I'm not really a fan of change, but I'm sure I'll get used to it. Here I have Pretty Woman- Magnetix (unnamed green). I found this at Rite Aid and I believe it was $6. I have yet to order the China Glaze Magnetix collection ( I'm trying to maintain my no-buy from now on- but I will get them eventually!). I purchased this green because it was unlike any of the shades that are in the China Glaze collection. I'm still getting used to the method of applying these. I had to do a couple nails over because I got the magnet too close to the polish and it smudged. After a few times, I realized that I could just do a quick touch-up, and put the magnet over it while it was still wet. I was getting impatient, so I just settled for the imperfections. You can see them on my index and ring finger. I don't really know a lot about this brand. The polish came with a diagonal line (shown) and wavy line magnet. The wear was okay. It chipped a little bit on the sides after two days. I'm definitely a fan of magnetic polish and I can't wait to purchase more!

OPI Fly Topped Off with Flakies!!!

Here I have OPI- Fly from the Nicki Minaj collection topped off with Love & Beauty - Light Green (such an original name). I purchased the Love & Beauty polish at Forever 21 last year. I have two coats of Fly and two coats of Light Green. The formula of Fly was practically opaque in one coat and when on flawlessly. I just did two coats out of habit. This picture is without the flash, and it looks very accurate to how it is real life. I think I found a new spot to take color-accuate pictures!

Light Green is very sheer. There are flakies and green shimmer particles suspended in a clear base. I would never consider wearing this shade on its own. These two look beautiful together. This picture is with the flash.

Here is another one I took without the flash to showcase the flakies. Fly looks really green- ignore that. I really don't want to remove this! It's just so pretty!

This is Fly by itself before adding Light Green. This is before clean-up. I apologize if my hands look dirty- they always do after I remove the previous polish I was wearing. I usually wait until my new mani dries before I thoroughly was my hands, but this was taken during the mani process. This color kind of reminds me of the Little Mermaid. Fly is a gorgeous teal creme.

I also have a tiny haul to show you from Rite Aid:

I purchased Pretty Woman Magnetix- It looks like an emerald green, but it doesn't have a name. I am going to order the China Glaze Magnetix collection soon, but I figured this would tide me over. I picked up two of the new Wet n Wild Megalasts also: Wet Cement, and On a Trip.
