kind of thick but very pretty
The polish is a bit thick, as others from this brand, so it takes some practice. The color is beautiful and I get sooo many compliments. It is a tad more gray than pictured, but still beautiful and stays shiny and lasts for weeks if you correctly prepare the nail bed

I got the shade "blue"
Loooove this polish. This is definitely the thickest of my gel polishes, cat eye included. Just something to be mindful of. I found that I helped when I opened the polish & swirled the brush/handle around in circles *as* I slowly removed the brush/handle, that way it removed some of the excess polish. Also be mindful not to just jam the brush back in the bottle, bc it's a thicker polish & there are air bubbles, you don't want it to spill ouy. Basically just be careful when using this, as you should any & all gel products. You DO need a full size lamp. Not just a flash cure lamp. And not just until they feel dry, keep them under the 48W full size lamp for the full 60 seconds. If you get any on your skin, use a brush & acetone (not alcohol) to wipe it off before curing. I used a detail brush to bring it out to my nail wall/cuticles & to level the polish out the way I would builder gel. The color is amazing! I haven't tried it over blue or black, only this grape purple color, & it turned out great. Outside/under direct light, it looks like labradorite 🔮🩷 I got the shade "blue." I'm mostly getting teal flash & purple flash depending on angle/lighting & holographic rainbow flecks but, it's not very blue lol. Anyway, I still think it looks great & highly recommend! I got some nail stamps to try & after figuring those out I put tarot nail stamps over this polish for a super ethereal set 💅

Ok, colorful but not their firefly color
As others have stated the magnet doesn’t work very well. So buy a stronger magnet. I got the x style from another brand and it works great. And I can use different magnets in it for different designs.But with this product it goes in well. Needs to do coats or is transparent. Some of it looks dark so I might have added to much in some parts of the nail.The color is pretty and so is the magnetic glitter. But it’s more of an amber glitter than yellow gold. A nice fall color though.

Gorgeous color but peels off fast for me
I really wanted to love this because the color is absolutely stunning—rich, vibrant, and exactly as pictured. However, my experience using it has been frustrating, especially when it comes to how it wears and cures. The polish goes on smoothly, and at first, it looks great. But within a few hours, it starts peeling off like glue. I followed the instructions carefully and cured it under my lamp for the recommended 60 seconds, but it stayed sticky. Thinking maybe it needed more time, I cured it even longer, but it never fully set. It remained tacky to the touch, and layering more just made it worse.There also aren’t any additional instructions provided about how to prevent peeling or stickiness, so it was really confusing. I used a white base coat as recommended for better opacity, and even then I had to reapply to get full coverage. Despite doing everything I could, it barely lasted three hours before it started lifting. I kept reapplying, but it just wouldn’t stay. I’m not sure if it’s user error or a product issue. Maybe I need more practice with gel polish, but I’ve used other brands before without this problem.That being said, the color is really gorgeous and bold, and for a one-day look or photos, it works beautifully. Just don’t expect long wear unless you can figure out the exact technique that works for this specific formula. I might try again, but only because the shade is that pretty.

Love it with a magnet over dark colors
Yes it is thicker than most gel polishes, and I agree it takes longer to cure. The suspension fluid is like a milky gray, and it will take 3-4 coats to look like this listing photos. If you use this over dark colors with a magnetic paddle to bring out that rainbow streak, it’s spectacular! I love it over a dark teal, indigo or purple. Add a couple tiny czs for “stars” and I love my “space” nails :)

Decent for the price! This is only my second time using magnetic gel.
I love the density of the glitter, the brush is long, it goes on very smoothly and is packed with glitter. It reacts very well to magnets, better than a different brand I have. I'll be buying this brand of magnetic gel again. I got the black glitter and the "black" is pretty transparent. I ended up putting this glitter gel over a regular black gel layer. That extra step of adding more black was the right choice! My nails are short, I do them myself so there isn't much room for any crazy magnetic designs. I ended up using the short wand (looks like a 2" cyllinder) and it worked great.

Temperature Change Works, Misleading Base Color from Ad
The media could not be loaded. Took a point off for the misleading advertisement because the base is actually a mauveinstead of pink as shown.Otherwise, the product itself has been great, it’s smooth, easy to work with, and has a medium viscosity. The polish base is a muted mauve jelly with flecks of finely milled pink-gold glitter, and silver cateye glitter.When used on its own — first photo (1 coat, no magnet) — the polish looks like a shimmery metallic mauve, when you look closely you can see the blend of both silver and pink-gold glitter. With just 1 medium coat, you’re able to achieve full opacity if you leave it as is.When used with a magnet — video (2 coats, magnetized both layers) — you can manipulate the silver cateye particles to your desired shape and this reveals the mauve and pink-gold shimmer base. This takes about 2 layers if you want to achieve a semi-opaque base.And the best part — second photo (1 coat, magnetized) — the temperature change actually works! When your hands and fingers are warm the jelly base turns into a semi-translucent white-grey that makes the cateye pop even more. The photo doesn’t do it just because it looks sort of flat and grey, but in person it leans white and is actually my favorite and preferred look of the combinations.
