How to Cat Eye Magnetic Polish

    Pro tip:Hold the magnet as close as you can to the nail without touching it. The closer it is, the sharper and more defined the effect will be. Hover for 5–10 seconds to allow the design to form, then cure straight away.

    Step By Step Guide

    How to apply Cat eye polishes

    STEP 1. PREP
    File nails to shape and use a Mylee Buffing Block* to gently remove shine from the nail plate. Wipe your nails with a dash of Mylee 2-in-1 Nail Prep & Wipe* on a Lint Free Wipe* to remove any oils. If you’re prone to lifting, apply the Mylee Dehydrator* followed by the Mylee Acid-Free Primer*.

    STEP 2. BASE
    Apply a thin layer of your chosen Mylee Base Coat* and cure for 60 seconds using a Mylee LED Lamp*. For bold results, apply a black base like Mylee Witching Hour Gel Polish*, or experiment with other shades like purples and pinks for a twist, before curing. Repeat to build up colour if needed.

    STEP 3.CAT-EYE
    Apply a layer ofCat-EyeGel Polish. Do not cure just yet. Hold the Mylee Magnet close to the nail for 10-15 seconds to create your desired effect, then cure for 60 seconds.

    STEP 4. FINISH
    Seal the deal with a Mylee Top Coat* and cure for 60 seconds. If using the regular Mylee Top Coat, remove the tacky layer with 2-in-1 Nail Prep & Wipe on a Lint Free Wipe. Alternatively skip this step and use a Mylee No-Wipe Top Coat! Wash your hands, apply Mylee Nail & Cuticle Oil*, moisturise, and enjoy your salon-quality mani for up to 3 weeks!

    Pro tip: Go one nail at a time. Apply the polish, use your magnet, and cure immediately. This locks the magnetic particles in place before they have a chance to shift. If you wait too long, the effect can soften or fade.
