China Glaze Magnetix is here on my table, and I’m excited…
I have
read good and bad reviews about opacity, the magnet etc. – so I was of course
curious to try them myself.
The
instructions tell me that on one coat is enough, and that is different from other
brands. So that's what I did on the swatch sticks, and it seems to work great!
The formula
was like other magnetic polishes I have tried, a bit on the thicker side, except for
one that was a bit thinner, and thus might be sheer in one coat.
The
magnet has all the 3 patterns in one. On the first test on swatch sticks the star and the arrow magnet
doesn’t seem to give as “tidy” a pattern as the diagonal magnet.
Over the
next 5 days I’ll test them on nails – one color with each of the magnets. The
Magnetix collection has 6 polishes, but I left “Attractions” behind, and I now regret that. But I
read bad reviews on Attractions, and I already have a very nice grey from nails
Inc., click HERE to see it.
For now
I’ll let the photos talk for themselves – I managed to get the colors very true
to real life.
China Glaze Magnetix er ankommet – og jeg er spændt….
Jeg har i forvejen læst både gode og dårlige anmeldelser
vedr. gennemsigtighed og magneten, så jeg var naturligvis spændt på selv at
prøve dem.
Instruktionen fortæller mig at et lag lak er nok, hvilket er anderledes fra de andre magnetlakker, jeg kender. Så det var det jeg gjorde på swatch pindende, og det ser ud til at virke fint!
Konsistensen virker som andre magnetlakker, altså en
smule tyktflydende, bortset fra en, der var lidt tyndere, og derfor måske vil
vise sig at behøve to lag for at være dækkende.
Magneten har alle tre mønstre i en. På min første test på swatch pinde, virker det som
om stjerne- og pilemagneten ikke giver så ”rent” et mønster som den diagonale
magnet.
Jeg vil hen over de næste dage afprøve dem alle 5 med
alle tre magneter. Der er 6 lakker i serien, men jeg lod være med at købe den
sidste, den grålige Attractions, som jeg havde læst meget dårlige anmeldelser
på, og jeg har jo i forvejen en skøn grå fra Nails Inc., se den HER
I denne omgang vil jeg lade farverne tale for sig selv, det er lykkedes mig at fange dem ret godt med kameraet.
