You Know My Name

Another green for today, Dance Legend You Know My Name.

You Know My Name is a dark olive magnetic poplish with golden reflexes. I used three coats, magnetised the third and added one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top.

Dance Legend 623 Magnetic

Today's mani is very simple, but boy, did I love wearing it...

I used just one polish, Dance Legend 623 Magnetic. It's a purple shimmer that turns very dark and very light, once you used the magnet. I applied three coats, magnetized a diagonal stripe, one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top, finished. 

Licence To Kill

Licence To Kill is today's polish, named after the James Bond Movie.

Licence To Kill is a medium green magnetic polish with golden reflexes. I don't know if I'm just too clumsy to work with Dance Legend polishes, but the magentic polishes I used don't react too much to the magnet, no matter which magnet I use...

Born Pretty Store Nail Art Magnet

Born Pretty Store also offered me a very handy nail art magnet, thank you so much!







 



I tried the magnet with a polish I found very hard to work with, Dance Legend Thunderball, a royal blue and gold magnetic polish. I tried several nail art magnets with this one, and never had any visible effect. But this little helper is strong enough to work even with this polish. The magnet is quite small, so it's not really easy to hold it over the nail, for me it worked best just sticking it on a pair of tweezers (the magnet is strong enough to hold itself fairly secure). I applied one coat of the polish, let it dry, added a second one and held the magnet over it immediately, as close as I could without touching the polish. I used the magnet a second time with the freshly applied topcoat KBShimmer Clearly On Top (I don't know if it really makes a difference, I've just read on several blogs that you should magnetize the polish a second time after topcoat...)

.If you're looking for a small but strong nail art magnet, this might be the right one for you. You can get it here for 1.59$. In the shop it's marked for magnetic UV gel, but it works perfectly well with ordinary magnetic polish.
