I’m a real novice over here (my third magnetic mani, and fourth I’ve done by myself)but I’m pretty happy! The polish applied like a dream (first coat was meh but it self leveled pretty nicely) and with the 5d glass bead tool???? In darker light it looks almost like a soft gray-purple? Excited to see it tomorrow in the sunlight!
Base coat: Essie strong start
3 coats Penelope Lux Emocional Connection magnetized with the 5d spinner thing 60 seconds on second and third coat (I could have stopped at 2 but got into it)
Top coat Essie gel setter (and another 60 seconds of spinning)
I really need to work on my shaping and clean up skills and my non dominant hand is not photo worthy!

Omg gorgeous color!!! These really do look like glass beads on you, like the stuff they use for mancala
I just got this one today! I can’t wait to use it!
I debated on getting this one but ultimately passed…happy to see others enjoying it though, it looks great!
Both Penelope Luz and Patty Lopes do some of the most amazing magnetics. They’re becoming two of my fave indie makers thru PPU and Hella Handmade!
