Unfortunately, magnetic polishes are often a good deal more expensive than regular lacquer. That's why I'm thrilled that my new favourite magnetic lacquer is also the cheapest I've ever come across! Claire's Magnetix line costs about half the price of a Nails Inc or Layla magnetic polish, and applies as well or even better.
Have a look at the green polish from Claire's Magnetix line:
Sadly, this colour doesn't have a specific colour name assigned to it; I guess I'll just have to call it "awesome". Because it is, isn't it? Great application, easy to use design, vivid colour, crisp magnetic pattern. All in an affordable polish! I'm a happy, happy lacquer tracker.
If you like magnetic polish, or want to try it for the first time, this is the one to pick up. Now all you have to do is muster up the courage to actually go INTO Claire's... I know I always feel utterly conspicuous going in there to peruse cosmetics along with all the pre-teens. Luckily, this is well within the boundaries of "things I will do for pretty nail lacquer".
What do you think of Claire's Magnetix green?
"Awesome" is about right. Great nails.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm glad you agree about this awesomeness!
DeleteOOOH the magnetic design came out really clear! Last time I was at Claires, the sales girl kept trying to sell me on them lol I didn't get any though..
ReplyDeleteYeah, the design is super crisp, which I'm thrilled about. Too often the design turns out "fuzzy". Definitely worth checking out!
DeleteI'm sold! Thanks for posting this. There's nothing I love more than a great deal that doesn't sacrifice quality!
ReplyDeleteAgreed- this is a diamond in the rough!
DeleteLovely green magnetic polish, the design has come out strongly x
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm really pleased with how this turned out. :)
DeleteLoooove that color! Haha and I can totally relate to the going to into Claire's dilemma. I am always very embarrassed when people see me in there...
ReplyDeleteLol, I usually do a few passes back and forth in front of the store first... you know, making sure no one I know is around, and that there's no line up at checkout. Then I swoop in, get what I want, and get out of there asap. Hahahaha.
DeleteGreat color and great magnet by the looks of it - reminds me of Nails. Inc. Whitehall - very much, actually...
ReplyDeleteCompared to Whitehall, I found this to be a lot more of a hunter green, rather than the blue-green of Whitehall. Overall, though, the bottle style is quite similar to the Nails Inc (which is a very good thing!).
Deletenice!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteJust amazing. Usually the problem with magnetic polishes is getting that clear and concise pattern. I know what you meant about the China Glaze one; I heard it was hard to use. This one seems to be of great quality. I'll have to pick it up the next time I'm in Claire's! :D
ReplyDeleteI'd say this is by far the easiest magnetic polish with which to get a nice, clear, crisp pattern. Definitely worth checking out!
DeleteI have the Icing magnetic polishes (which I'm guessing are the same) and I agree, they're awesome!! Ha, I feel the same way going into Claire's!
ReplyDeleteI think the Icing polishes are the same as Claire's. I'm glad you agree that they're awesome! Do you have any other colours to recommend? I'm thinking I should go back and pick out a couple more, if they're not sold out.
