GAOY Pink Ocean Cat Eye Gel Nail Polish Set with Magnet for Holographic Cat Eye, Salon Gel Manicure and Nail Art DIY at Home

Must-have!

Polish quality is great, thickness is great, it flash cures so fast to lock the pearl/cateye design in fast, it’s a great price for how many colors you get, any color will be durable if you prep properly and have a quality top coat, and my only complaint is the small bottle size because I want to use these colors FOREVER!!!! This is my favorite collection so far. I did the pearl effects by swirling around the polish while it was still uncured, I was able to use the tool that came with it to do so which was so convenient. I then used the magnet and some small cuticle scissors to do the cateye French tip effect while it was uncured. I ONLY NEEDED A SINGLE COAT OF THIS POLISH (obviously I’m using base coat, builder gel (natural pink btw), and top coat) AND LOOK AT THE COVERAGE!!! I’m super impressed. The magnet particles don’t move around as fast as some of my other cateye polishes, however I think that is due to the nice thickness of the polish, which I love because it doesn’t run around while I’m doing the designs and the coverage is phenomenal. I’m actually OBSESSED!!! 10/10 give me MORE!

This is my first time using magnetic gel and it wasn’t too difficult! The instructions saying to do one thick coat and then cure. It takes several minutes for this polish to cure so, I didn’t find that to be the best method. The photos here are of just one coat, more on the thin side. The base is a sheer jelly polish so, you will see your nail with just one coat. If you hold the magnet for too close or too long, you will get a solid line of sparkles and sheer jelly so, I found it best to quickly do a few swipes over the nail with the magnet so that sparkles are still distributed throughout the nail. However, if you over magnetize, just brush over the nail again but wipe excess polish off the brush before and be mindful to try and have a layer even with the others. I did another set with the darker brown, which is a beautiful chocolate color, with two coats and it had more dimension. For this I did the first coat without magnetizing and the second I magnetized longer so that the jelly polish was more noticeable. Overall, great polish with a lot of options for different effects. The color palette for this set is awesome.

Good product but I definitely would say I thought there would be more of a difference in colors of pink but 4 of them look the same.

I got this set along with the same brand’s gel rose polish (it looks like colored glass when you use it alone). I initially took the set to my nail salon and had the technician do SNS over my nails. He then did a couple coats of the base color of the gel color and a coat of the cat eye glitter and used the magnetic wand. What it appears to be is superfine magnetic glitter suspended in gel UV polish.I really liked how it turned out when my tech did it but I wanted to play around with these magnetic polishes. They include a wand with a rectangular magnet on one end and a small round one on the other. It seems like the polarity of the magnet does seem to make a difference in how you position it.After you like what it looks like, you cure it with a UV light (my husband had this UV flashlight). Then you can add clearcoat, cure, do another coat of glitter, and push the glitter in a different pattern for depth.I definitely let time go and just zoned out while playing with this stuff, that’s why it’s a de-stressed for me. The pic and video are of more cateye glitter I added onto what my tech did.

This is the the first time I have tried doing gel polish myself. It was easy to use and I am very happy with how it turned out. It is absolutely beautiful. Very natural but sparkly which I love. Editing this review to include that it looks fresh one week later I changed it for a different color. It was easy to remove, but it stays on very well and it did not chip. Very satisfied with this polish.
