Lately, I’ve been feeling quite restless when it comes nail décor. Sometimes I want something more than a one color job, but less than a circus act. There's been attempts with half-moon French manicures, stripes, dots, crackle, sparkles, etc. but my nails always wind up looking a hot mess. Only a dexterous few can actually follow those DIY nail art tutorials without getting a ramshackle result similar to that of a pre-pubescent slumber party manicure.
For those of us who want a new look without the hassle, feel free to freak over LCN’s new magnetic nailpolish, a beauty product that resides somewhere on the border of our “Cool Sh!t” AND “Glam Damn It” sections. We’re not sure about the scientific reasoning behind the polish’s reaction but here’s how the application process works:
1. Apply a thick layer of whatever color you desire. 2. Hold either the star-shaped or diagonal magnet over the polish for 10 seconds.
We love the possibilities of this polish along with its easy application. You can magnetize your thumbnail only and keep the rest of the hand a one color deal. Or go crazy and just magnetize every finger.
The polishes are available online at www.shoplcnusa.com. Go for the starter kit ($115.90), which includes all 8 colors of the polish as well as both magnet designs. If you're strapped for cash, though, each color is sold separately ($9.95) along with the magnets (19.95).
