Hey dolls! A few weeks ago when I was in the mall, I stopped by Icing to see if they had any of the Magnetix polishes. The manager told me that they were selling quickly and there was only the blue and green ones left (I grabbed them both). While I’ve been seeing magnetic polishes all over the blogosphere, I knew this would be one trend that I needed to try for myself to see if I actually liked it.
The Icing Magnetix polishes come with a removable cap that holds the magnet. I kind of liked the way the wavy design looked, so I decided to go with the blue polish first. The formula is thick, but easy to work with, and opaque with one coat. I polished one nail at a time, then immediately put the magnet over the nail while it was still wet. You have to be extremely careful to make sure the magnet doesn’t get too close, or the polish will adhere to it. That happened to me several times, so I had to apply another coat of polish and try again. The glue underneath the magnet gave a little, which caused the magnet to fall off. I applied a little bit of super glue and it was as good as new.
