Matte, glitter, crackle – we’ve heard of all of these different types of nail paints, but have you heard of magnetic nail polish? This funky trend can create some cool designs on your nails, with the help of tiny metallic particles. All you have to do is swipe on a coat, wave the magnetic bottle cap and voilà! Here are our favourite magnetic nail lacquers.
1. Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Colour
Amp up your nail art game with 3-D art. Sally Hansen’s magnetic polish is available in a range of shades and a cool wavy pattern. We recommend going for ‘Ionic Indigo’, a deep shimmery blue with light blue waves.
2. Barry M Instant Nail Effects Magnetic
If you are looking for a variety of designs, then Barry M should be your pick! With 6 gorgeous shades and 6 unique designs, these nail lacquers ensure that your nails are one of a kind. We especially love ‘Cosmic Glow’, which is a trendy green with a chevron print.
3. Konad Magnetic Nail Polish
Metallic and magnetic, Konad’s nail polishes are quite incredible. Try out the sultry violet shade for a cool wave-like effect.
4. China Glaze Magnetix Collection
It’s no surprise that this brand features on our list! China Glaze has a wide range of magnetic nail polishes, but we were particularly drawn to ‘Attraction’ – a sparkly grey shade featuring a silver star pattern.
5. Avon Colour Attract Magnetic Nail Enamel
Although you have to purchase the magnetic wand separately, Avon’s Magnetic Nail Enamel’s are worth the effort. Channel your inner fashionista and try on the ‘Hypnotic Bronze’ shade for a mesmerizing effect.
Finally we have found a use for all those physics classes in school! Try on these magnetic lacquers and let us know what you think.
