Layla Magneffect Nail Polish




Silver Galaxy was my favorite of these four polishes. It creates a silver and black 3d effect, with silver glitter throughout. It is interesting that the magnetic quality doesn't disturb the glitter and it is evenly dispersed.


Black Metal creates a black and silver 3D effect.


 Metallic Sky creates a sky blue and navy blue 3D effect


Blue Grey Flow creates a silver/gray, and blue/black 3d effect.

These polishes are so fun to apply, and the look of the 3d effect is definitely better in person. There is a line on the cap that is a good guide for how you want your design to appear. Hold the cap with the line horizontally across the nail bed for horizontal lines, or angle it slightly for the diagonal look. I used one coat on all of the nails, and then on the second coat applied the magnet for about 10 seconds to each nail as close as I could get it without touching. It may seem intimidating at first, but the process actually goes by quickly. If the design isn't as you wished just polish another layer on the nail and try again. That worked great for me.

I purchased these from AVEYOU. The retail price is $15.50 per polish, but remember to check for coupon codes online. I also received  a cute mini tote bag with my purchase. This is definitely a fun new trend in polish that I am glad I could try.
