This was honestly one of the best nail tutorials I’ve seen on UA-cam, and just in time for a certain presumed launch tomorrow 💅😂 Looking forward to the next videos in the series!
What launch is it that people keep referencing? Editing to add it’s Holo Taco, I should’ve guessed cuz I don’t care about that brand but just leaving the info if anyone else is left out later 😃
What could possibly have prompted you to release this particular video of the series right now?! 🔍🔍🔍 😆😆 I'm very excited for this series, it will be super useful!!
@@ColorExpression I saved it to my favorites so I can go back to it to relearn how to do certain styles. Already went back once to see how to do the French Tip! 🥰
This was so well organised, explained and demonstrated! You did such an amazing job! Just the video I was looking for a couple weeks ago and I love so much it was you that came out with it, Kyle! Got me even more hyped for holo taco’s release now 😂
Thank you so much for this video! I am totally guilty of passing on some beautiful magnetics because of application time and I kept dropping the magnet on my nails. 😢Then I decided to experiment with using multiple magnets that i held in place with sticky clay/putty and left my fingers on them for application and dry time. So much faster and very crisp cat eye lines! Now I’ve ordered some holders for above the nail to see if they will work with the shaped magnets. Now I’m really excited for magnetic polish!❤
Hitting the magnet off your nails is the absolute worst 😅 sounds like a great method you’ve put together! I hope you end up liking magnetics a little bit more!
Thank you so much for this! This was so incredibly helpful! I usually do a cat eye when I use magnetic polish, but it's so incredibly time consuming and takes me up to 2 hours to do my nails because I like to have my finger on the magnet for 2-3 minutes. I recently tried doing velvet nails and I loved how pretty it was and how much quicker it was than a cat eye.
Thanks for this video. I hardly ever use the magnetics I have, because I didn’t really know what to do other than cat eye. I’ll have to experiment with them now.
Thank you for this video, it was very informative! I only have two magnetic polishes, but I love them, they look so beautiful, and it's amazing how many ways you can play with the magnetic design! :)
Thanks for all the info about magnetizing between coats, top coats, and how the polish settles. This is the most useful video I've ever seen on how to use these polishes!
Elaine, thank you so much for the support!!! It truly means so much 💖 I'm so glad you found the video helpful, there are more to come hopefully (very) soon! Happy New Year 🥰
Thank you for the great video! I really appreciate when nail creators take the time explain the dispersion over time and set the right expectation for magnetics. In the beginning, before I figured out that the line just can’t stay as clean and sharp I was so disappointed with the brands and searchers. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Omg this video is amazing! Loved the cat eye tree, had no idea crystal and velvet were separate things, and I had been considering trying some form of the French effect so this video was overall very helpful!
This video was AMAZING. THANK YOU for showing different types of magnetic polish. So helpful as a newbie; now I know exactly what to search. THANK YOU for showing how the polish looks the morning after. Nobody ever does this. It really helps with choosing what designs to do. Can you eventually do another video in this series featuring rectangle magnetic wands made for specific designs? I’ve only ever seen them on Amazon and can’t find real life examples of how they effectively look/work.
I'm SO happy you enjoyed it and found it helpful!! I've seen those wands and definitely want to play around with them - there may need to be a part 2 to this magnetics video, lol!
Thanks for the tutorial Kyle! I've really been enjoying your polish reviews and your quirky humour and now can't wait to see more of this series. I don't yet have any magnetic nail polishes but always wondered how to create different effects :) Can I ask, do you wait for the bottom 2 coats to dry fully before placing the thicker third coat on top?
Thank you so much for your kind words! Regarding the drying, pretty much think of it the same as you would in between coats of a regular polish mani, so about 4-6 mins!
What a great idea for a series! I can't wait to see what else you have planned for your future all about videos ! Thank you for such superb quality that you brought with this one as well as all of your other videos-always such a treat to watch them! 😊
Thanks for this, very cool! I've been speeding it up by only holding the magnet over the final + topcoat layers, so it was useful to see the comparison between doing that and magnetizing every layer. Think I'll try splitting the difference by painting on top of the magnet, and then holding the wand longer for those final layers.
You have an impeccable application for any polish! I was amazed, especially after watching quite a few youtubers stating that this or that polish was streaky - in your hands, everything comes out perfect! Thank you for all the work!
Such a great video! I absolutely love magnetic polishes, probably my favourite special finish. Your swatches of those Mooncats make me think I should finally check them out, they're stunning.
Love love love this video! Im an at home gel manicure diy (i have an expired cosmetology license looking to get it reinstated) and just bought my first magnet polish. My non dominant hand looks great, dominant hand not so much😂. After watching this i understand what i dad right and wrong, i also didn't know all of the different ways it could be used. I wanna try some of these with a matte top coat(favorite is the one by gelish).
What a great video, Kyle! Very much in depth and very helpful tips and advice to get the best look possible. I Love how you broke down also the different kinds of pigments you can find with a magnetic formula. Can't wait to see what else you'll come up with in your new series "All About"! 💗💗
Thank you for this. I have a few magnetic polishes, but I've limited myself to cat eye effect because it's the simplest one to do. Will be trying some of these other ones now that I can wrap my head around them.
Such a wonderfully complete vid! I’ve just started playing with magnetic polish and boy do I have some homework/experimenting to do. Thank You for sharing! 😊
@@ColorExpression Well, your video was already a big help! I got a magnetic in a mystery box and tried to use a regular magnet, it was doing oooookay until I did the topcoat and I didn't know to use the magnet on that. I have a Mooncat order with another one and wand and I just can't wait to try the rest of these tips out.
Very good summary of what magnetic polish is all about! I think my problem is most likely that my magnets are all the super old shaped magnets from way back in the day, though it's possible that the old magnetic polishes just don't work as well either. I definitely need to get a wand but until then I have some round tiny rare earth magnets that might work for the round magnet designs you demonstrated.
I find some need a good pre-application shake to make sure the pigments are all mixed in well! I hope you get them to play nicely 🤩 thank is for watching Leah!
Loved this video! It must have taken a lot of time and work. I like magnetic polishes but they definitely are time consuming! Also I think it would be cool if there were special magnets that created different designs 🤔 I wonder if that exists
@@ColorExpression You’re Welcome Kyle!! Definitely looking forward to trying more of your methods especially the velvet. I already have so many magentic polishes, but I can never have enough in my collection. 😁💅💕
this is an amazing video, I didn't think I would find exactly what I needed. Thank you so much, the quality is amazing too. More technique videos like this please!
New to magnetics here, and wanted to learn more about it before I try. I ordered one from Mooncat, also ILNP. Thank you for doing this video for a total Newb because (I feel so dumb) even though I look at the wand every day I never noticed the circular magnet at the bottom!!!
Bravo on such a comprehensive tutorial! What a well-crafted video. The verbal directions were clear and your on-screen demonstration & swatches really clarified what you said.
Wow! Really loved your comprehensive explanation! I’ve just gotten my magnetic nail polish and was looking for a video just like this one. Hopefully I’ll be able to create a nice art today.
Fabulous video, Kyle! I was so hoping you'd consider a tutorial series! (Please consider one on your personal nail care and manicure technique; your nails are in fabulous shape!) Thanks so much! 💜
I didn’t highlight it too much since it was limited edition and no longer in production but it’s Oracle by Cirque Colors! They do ‘bring back’ shades tho so if you message them maybe they’ll add it to a future list! 🥰💟
Revisiting this video after buying my first magnetics (cirque colors). I cannot get the S curve. The first spot works but when I go to the opposite side, there’s no budge in the pigments-so it’s not an S curve but a black hole in one corner. I’ve tried switching sides immediately and it still didn’t work. Can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. I forgot you had mentioned using the same brand top coat; I was just wondering if I should try that. I was going to grab ILNP new top coat but now wonder if I should grab cirque’s despite the lower reviews.
Hmm, I'd recommend maybe trying a thicker coat when doing your S-curve design? Sometimes the formulas just dry down a little too quickly for the magnet so applying more polish in the coat should keep it wetter for slightly longer. Let me know if this helps or if you run into any other funki-ness!
Thank you so much for this!!! I have been struggling with my cat eye polish from MoonCat. I love it and think it is beautiful, but I could not for the life of me figure out how to place the magnet. You are such a big help!!!
Well done and how fun! This is the first time I've had the 'cat's eye' gel and my goal was to figure out the 'why' of how it worked (because I'm a chemistry nerd) and you shared some fun ideas and explained it very well. I still don't know 'how' it happens but a great tutorial, just the same. Thank you!
I'm so torn. I don't like what gel does to my natural nail, but because you can set every layer, I used to do a star sapphire effect that is just flat out impossible with lacquer.
Oh that sounds really interesting, how was it done? I’m getting some magnetic gels soon and am nervous but excited, I’ve never used gel before (but plan to do it with peelies haha 😆)
Hey, this was a great video. I just order my holo taco magnetic polish today and I was feeling a little overwhelmed. Now I have a better idea on what I need to do and all the different types of magnetic polishes that are actually out there.
So good, Ive been looking all over UA-cam for a video likes this. I have couple magnetic nail polishs and have been growing tired of the same cat eye. Thank you so much for a thorough video like this one!
Wow, what a start to a great series! Very informative, esp since just this week I got some effects but I had no idea how or what I did wrong (I was aiming for velvet but somehow I got crystal /facepalm). Thank you for all the effort and work you had to put in for this video! 🤗 My fav: BAE all the way, esp with velvet and/or crystal effect 🥰😍🥰! Mood ring is not to shabby, also.... And KBShimmer Creep it together, with cat eye effect.
If you use a super quick dry top coat, you can apply the magnet underneath the nail so that you dont have to worry about it drying too fast! And I would also assume that if it dries super fast, it doesn't have the time to affect the pigments underneath 😊
Thank you Kyle, really useful, I have a lot of the magnetics, cirque, HT and Mooncat, and I love them despite the application time, but it was super interesting how you showed the difference with the every coat eyes cat. WOW and all the others, honestly one of the best magnetic Tut's and of course perfect timing for Cristine's new collection!
Great video! I look forward to the rest of the series. I tried the crystal method with Cirque Colors Dream Within a Dream…it’s so glowy!!😍 Did you see that KB Shimmer is releasing a zigzag bar magnet with their winter collection next week? Instead of a regular cat eye, it creates a lightning bolt ⚡️!
Fab video!! Learned so much and love seeing all the different effects based on how the wand is held. Can you pls discuss magnetic powders?? I have a few bottles where the magnetic effect is pretty weak. I wonder if I can add my own magnetic powder to those to kick it up a notch. Thanks!!
I just tried magnetic polishes for the first time. They dry so fast LOL You have to be really quick with those magnets 🥷🥷 I'll definitely keep your tips in mind next time I use them!
Preparing for Saturday, eh? 😉😅
Haha it lined up pretty well, didn’t it!! 😂
I was wondering why Holo Taco polish wasn't the video, but then I noticed the date! Good timing
This was honestly one of the best nail tutorials I’ve seen on UA-cam, and just in time for a certain presumed launch tomorrow 💅😂 Looking forward to the next videos in the series!

I'm glad you found it helpful Mindy! 🥰
I just got my first magnetic polishes and I've been searching around for a good tutorial on velvet/crystal nails. This video is a lifesaver 😍
Same!! I am not big on the cat eye effect, and I didn't even know that you could do french tip nails with magnetics 😆
I'm so glad! Perfect timing :)
I find normal french tips so hard so this is a great method to get the same-ish effect haha
That s-curve design is so pretty. You executed that design beautifully! 😍 10/10
Thank you so much, I really like that one too!
I’m so stoked for this series! Though I love Kyle’s quirky videos, I am also loving his “teaching “ videos!
LOL gotta have a nice mix of both 😎🥰
@@ColorExpression I saved it to my favorites so I can go back to it to relearn how to do certain styles. Already went back once to see how to do the French Tip! 🥰
Since you do layers of the gel polish, do you cure layer 1 and 2 individually before you put layer 3?
Cant wait until tomorrow!!💿🌮😉
Me too!!
This was so well organised, explained and demonstrated! You did such an amazing job! Just the video I was looking for a couple weeks ago and I love so much it was you that came out with it, Kyle! Got me even more hyped for holo taco’s release now 😂

Thank you! I hope you enjoy the crystal effect! 😍

Awesome video, thank you! I'm new to magnetic polishes and this is great reference. 💖💖💖
So glad you found it helpful, Michelle! Thank you for watching!
for the top coat you recommend using a quick dry, would a gel top coat also work?
I NEEDED THIS VIDEO SO BAD!!! Thank you 🙏🏼
Wow, what a start to a great series! Very informative, esp since just this week I got some effects but I had no idea how or what I did wrong (I was aiming for velvet but somehow I got crystal /facepalm). Thank you for all the effort and work you had to put in for this video! 🤗
My fav: BAE all the way, esp with velvet and/or crystal effect 🥰😍🥰! Mood ring is not to shabby, also.... And KBShimmer Creep it together, with cat eye effect.
Great picks for some favorites! Magnetics are just soooo beautiful 🥰
Topic suggestion: all about nail vinyls!
Love it - thanks Max!!
If you use a super quick dry top coat, you can apply the magnet underneath the nail so that you dont have to worry about it drying too fast! And I would also assume that if it dries super fast, it doesn't have the time to affect the pigments underneath 😊
I tried that today and like the results a lot! Definitely something I’ll mention if there’s ever a part 2! 🤩
I was wondering about that. Thanks for the tip.
@@ColorExpression great! 💗
Thanks just learning about cats eye, love the look
Thank you Kyle, really useful, I have a lot of the magnetics, cirque, HT and Mooncat, and I love them despite the application time, but it was super interesting how you showed the difference with the every coat eyes cat. WOW and all the others, honestly one of the best magnetic Tut's and of course perfect timing for Cristine's new collection!
I’m glad you enjoyed it Chellie!! Thank you for watching 😍
Great video! I look forward to the rest of the series. I tried the crystal method with Cirque Colors Dream Within a Dream…it’s so glowy!!😍
Did you see that KB Shimmer is releasing a zigzag bar magnet with their winter collection next week? Instead of a regular cat eye, it creates a lightning bolt ⚡️!
Oooh I haven't but the multichromes look SO good like that!
How interesting - I may just need to try that out, thanks for watching Amanda!!
New to these types of polishes. I got the Vettsy soak off unicorn cat eye 02 and unicorn gel 01 gel polish …. How do I use them together?
Fab video!! Learned so much and love seeing all the different effects based on how the wand is held. Can you pls discuss magnetic powders?? I have a few bottles where the magnetic effect is pretty weak. I wonder if I can add my own magnetic powder to those to kick it up a notch. Thanks!!
Thank you!! I actually have some holo magnetic powders that I'm hoping to try out/review this month.. stay tuned!
This was so helpful..thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I just tried magnetic polishes for the first time. They dry so fast LOL You have to be really quick with those magnets 🥷🥷 I'll definitely keep your tips in mind next time I use them!
I know! That's when the under finger method comes in handy
This is an amazing video!! Thank youuuu❤️❤️❤️❤️
You're so welcome! :)
