How to use magnetic nail polish

Magnetic manicure appeared relatively recently, but has already won the trust of the beautiful half of the population. Thanks to a special technology, girls can create patterns on their nails without drawing skills. Freakish strips, asterisks, waves - now all this became possible. The resulting ornament depends on the type of magnet used. Many ladies prefer to combine magnetic varnish with other types of coating, thus highlighting only the middle and ring fingers.

Features of magnetic nail polishes

Today, popular manufacturers produce a wide palette of varnishes, each girl will find an option for herself.

1. Most enamels are complex in color. This includes purple, gray-blue, bluish, marine, lilac-pink, brown-green, gold, bronze, silver shades.
2. Particles called metallic are added to the coating. With their help you can achieve a beautiful deep shade. Magnet attracts metal grains to the surface, creating an original ornament.
3. A positive feature of magnetic varnish is considered to be the density. It is enough to apply 1 layer to cover the nail plate without translucent spots.
4. The coating of this kind has a persistent composition, it is perfectly kept on the nails, so do not need a fixer (top varnish). Magnetic enamel is removed with the most common liquid without acetone, without leaving behind a streak.
5. Leading manufacturers produce nail polish with a magnet already attached. However, in some rulers you can find coatings without a magnet, in this case, the device must be purchased separately.
6. Magnet to create a pattern is a platform on which a finger is placed on top. You can also find a magnet in the form of a plate, but it is not very convenient for use by beginners.
7. If you are covering your nails with this varnish for the first time, give preference to the platform. The ease of use will allow you to make a beautiful pattern, without lubricating the lacquer itself.
8. The magnet is considered reusable, so it makes no sense to buy it with each new bottle of composition. You can use the device with coatings of different companies, regardless of the color and brand of the manufacturer.
9. It is important to understand that metal particles are designed specifically for a magnet. That is why they successfully rise to the top or "hang" in the core of varnish. You should not try to create a pattern on varnishes, not intended for this purpose.
10. Magnetic varnishes are especially popular with girls with long nails, but the average length is also suitable. Short nails will not be able to transfer the entire picture, cutting it off. You can visually change the shape and length of the plate by rotating the magnet in different directions.
11. For example, if you draw stripes from the nail bed to the free edge, the plate will visually taper and lengthen. In the case of horizontal stripes (from edge to edge of the nail roll), the surface will expand, the nails will look shorter.

Preparation of nails for manicure

1. Make a preliminary preparation of the nails. Make a bath for hands on the basis of salt, essential and natural oils or medicinal plants.Mash the skin for a quarter of an hour.
2. Using an orange stylus, move the cuticle to the base of the nail, cut it with thin nail scissors or forceps. You can also use a special liquid, if it is available at hand.
3. Next, give the nails the same length and shape, process the free edge with a glass file. Ladies who have irregularities on their nails should use a buff for grinding. Give the surface dullness and roughness, eliminating defects.
4. Wipe your nails with nail polish remover without acetone or a special degreaser. After that, wait 10 minutes for the product to evaporate from the plate structure. Apply the first protective layer - the base under the lacquer, dry.
5. If your nails do not differ in natural evenness, use the "smoothing" base (base). It will fill in the gaps, which will allow you to apply the main layer with the highest quality It is important to understand that the more thorough the preparation, the better the final result will be.

Magnetic varnish technology

Of course, the scheme of applying a magnetic varnish differs from the technique of using other coatings. The procedure requires attention to detail, hard hands and perseverance.You will spend more time, but the result is worth the effort and time.

1. In a stagnant bubble, the magnetizable particles settle to the bottom of the vial. Therefore, the tube must be turned and twisted between the palms for 1-2 minutes. Do not shake the bottle in any case, otherwise bubbles will form that will negate all efforts.
2. After preparing the nails start applying the composition. Cover the plates alternately, starting with the little finger. Remove the brush from the bottle, remove excess from the back side. Put the brush in the middle of the nail, slightly push the varnish to the cuticle, drawing a semicircle.
3. Next, go down to the base of the nail, do not let the varnish flow into the side cavities. Seal the tip of the nail, sweeping along the edge of the brush. You should not impose a varnish in several layers, one is enough. This is what distinguishes the magnetic coating from all the others.
4. After applying the composition on the little finger, proceed to the creation of the ornament. Do not hesitate, the pattern is drawn exclusively on a fresh coating. Bring the magnet to the plate as close as possible, but do not touch the nail, so as not to grease the varnish.
5. Keep the magnet strictly parallel, no need to twist or tilt it.Wait 60-80 seconds, then remove the auxiliary device. You will see a beautiful pattern, after 3 seconds the saturation will partially go away.
6. After processing the little finger proceed to the application of varnish on the ring finger. The technology is identical to the previous one. If you use a magnetic platform, a finger is placed on it. The exposure time remains the same 1-1.5 minutes. Clean the nail gently so as not to grease the varnish.
7. Magnetic coating does not require the application of the final layer. For this reason, do not use special drying, top lacquer, gloss, fixer, etc. Such compositions will make the image dull and dull, all efforts will be in vain.
8. If in the course of the manicure you inadvertently smeared the varnish, as a result of which it remained on your finger, act carefully. Moisten a cotton swab or a manicure pencil in a liquid without acetone, remove the excess. Manipulations are carried out strictly after creating the picture.

The technology of using magnetic nail polish is not difficult, if you follow the step-by-step instructions. Prepare the cuticle and plate in advance, shape the nails.Twist the coated bottle between the palms, then spread over the surface of the nail in one layer. Keep the magnet parallel to the ornament turned out to be uniform. Experiment with shades, create your ideal image.
