My left hand is pristine, but the topcoat on righty tighty over here looks like a layer of bubble wrap. Am I timing my application wrong? Polish used: 1 coat kbshimmer moisturizing base coat, 3 coats Phoenix "Point of Entry," 1 coat Sally Hansen red bottle. I used a wand magnet with a lightning bolt on top (a fellow laquerista sent it as a bonus with some polishes I ordered from them) for everything but my thumb. I used a longer bar magnet that's split in two with an "s" on each section for that one. I've stopped bothering with magnetizing every layer of color and trying to line placement up each time, so for this mani I ONLY magnetized the top coat on each nail for 2ish minutes. It would be my best manicure yet if it weren't for the bubbles. I'm going out of town tomorrow and trying to decide if I can live with this for a few days or if my neurodivergent brain will fixate on the imperfections if I don't redo my nails tonight.
