Magnetic Nail Polish?

Have any of you ladies tried the new magnetic nail polish that's out now?

According to the directions, you apply one coat, let it dry. Apply a second coat and while it's trying you hold the included small magnet over the nail and that can create a variety of different patterns depending on what you do with magnet while it's drying.

Just curious if any of you have tried it out and what you thought. I was hoping it was the opposite way and that by putting your hand in your purse you could easily fish up anything metal, like coins or your car keys....

Sounds amazing. It's probably got some of those tiny polyhedrons with differant reflective surfaces on each side suspended in the fluid and the fight between gravity and magnetism would make them move into differant positions giving a differant reflectivity to the polish. This would create odd and unique patterns. Methinks that when the time comes to play with nail polish I will get some. Love me some science don't you know.

My neighbor is a beauty consultant at Walgreens, She and I had fun playing with that one day. It is sooo cool! I want to get some when I get out of hock. The magnet is shaped kind of funky and that's what makes the neat designs. Wonder how they figured that one out, somebody screwing around in the lab??? Giggle. Hug ya. Jody

Many advances and discoveries tend to be accidents with applicable results, IE Teflon and the safety glass used in car windshields. Another accidental discovery was vulcanized rubber.

Shoot, I forgot to ask, Where can I find this nail polish? What is the brand name?

Sorry for the extra post! :poster_oops:

I've used it. We have several colors here. It does work, but not as well or as easily as they'd have you believe. You have to get the magnet so close to your nail to get it to show clearly that you often bump your nail and have to start again. It's fun though, I'd buy it again.

I first saw ads for it in Cosmo and Glamour magazine, then saw the actual product in Walmart and Target and got a better look at it and the magnet.

Haven't seen that yet, But I am sure it came out of the automotive industry. We use to do something similar on door lettering.. We would use real ground Metal Flake. (Metal flake paints aren't really metal, its Mica) the use a large magnet to manipulate the flakes. Usually we did this in conjunction with Lace painting or saran wrap blotting.

I have taught a few nail techs how to airbrush and apply Gold leaf to nails. I'll try to put together a little step bu step one day so you can do this at home.. (Gold leaf that is.Airbrushing is difficult to do on yourself.)

Over here in South Africa me and my sister tried it out last year January I think. The brand was Essence, but I don't know if it's sold in America or if they still make the magnetic nail polish

I have several of these...LOVE THEM!!!!!!!

They are awesome, and nope, you cannot pick up stuff with your nails, lol. The metal is in the polish and the magnet is in the cap, able to make cool lines and stuff on your nails...tres funky!

Something else to try! I don't know how i missed this thread but i will be looking for it now. I am a bit disappointed that it won't help find my keys in the bottom of my purse.... at least i hope they are there.

Hugs,

Charlize

      Thanks, @VickySGVfor some truth. Hatred may speak loudly in a political agenda, but there is always love, there is always love.

      Doesn't this belong over in the Humor Topic??  Grim humor I admit, but it has the dark humor picture of the folks protesting the Sacramento Sanctuary Laws.  If the world is going to end next week why are these people so concerned about someone staying fertile and able to have children??   Crazy.

      Once again the opposition is telling scary, unfounded  baloney about what IS being done to any Trans Person.  The truth about the very little and very cautious treatments just will not sink into them because it will sink them.  They bully their own Cis children unmercifully to fit into their molds, and that is gruesome in itself. I am happy to say I know that Trans children and all Trans folks in the area have access to wonderful care based on what some of my former State colleagues who have Trans family members and fellow employees there in Sacramento keep telling me about.

      good for you dear. my guess is soreness is good sign things are going on there. water them n hope. smiles   actually was speaking to someone other day n they said the growth leveled off after a few years  which coincided with a few years of very high stress..n then when the high stress resolved, she grew another cup size..

      darling I completely agree. but it will need road testing I'd think.    and I recently asked a surgeon about an idea I had for easier recovery...do a zero depth 1st..recover then add a canal..he said NO. this surgery is hard enough on body to recover, do not do it any more than needed. also said penile inversion usually is sufficient n includes a few centimeters of perineum tissue anyway..so keep the perineum pull through as a reserve technique in case there is a problem with theb penile inversion.    hugs to any who want them

      I can't tell from the article if being trans was part of the motivation for the crime, or whether it was simply incidental to it. Clearly at least one of the perpetrators was known to the victim, which seems to continue the pattern that the most dangerous people for us are often people we know.  😒

      Beans, beans, the musical fruit...   But beans and rice make a complete protein, and a pretty cheap base for any sort of meal. Since two of my partners are Hispanic and one is Asian, we use a lot of rice. Plenty of beans too, although 90% of the time they are on the form of black-eyed peas. That crop grows really well in the South no matter how hot and dry it gets.  And the Native American trio of corn, beans, and squash is a classic.  Actually, those ingredients tend to show clearly whether kids were raised with a healthy diet or not. Kids raised eating those foods luke them. Kids raised without experiencing those foods tend to reject them immediately. Rather strange.

      I feel a little better about going outside. I got my EpiPen just in case of an emergency. Today was rough started euphoric and then depression hit real hard and I don't even know what it was about. It just happened. I want to see a bright future but it turns dim because of something. I was disappointed on how much supplemental insurance was more than regular health insurance. I enjoy seeing other successful people making it as a couple through everything in fact I cheer them on but it just makes me think if I will find anyone. I barely dated anyone when I was physically fit male and then it seems the older I get it gets harder. Not to mention everyone down here leaves as soon as they find out I'm trans. It's only going to get more difficult because of borderline personality disorder. It's dang near seems impossible that people would even put up with that. After all that I'm still trying to be positive and hope for the best but I always expect the worst and that has always been the case. Pushing 40 and I haven't even experienced true love.

      Good afternoon everyone,    I’ve been working in the shop and preparing a few training props for shipping. So my responses and activity here has been very slow. I’m doing well just real tired.    Hugs,    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      That’s good news, listen to your doctors and your body. You may be asked to start a daily exercise routine and walking around the neighborhood. The worst thing you can do is become sedentary and laying around.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
