Sally hansen's magical nail polish

Really nice and holographic but the nail varnishes flake off really easily.

Nail stickers

Nail stickers are not good in my opinion because it leaves your fingers sticker after applying them.

They do not work on nails that have lots of ridges so you have to file them to get the best effects, otherwise they will not stick tautly on the nails.

MAGIQUE Magnetic nail polish

Got these nail polishes by MAGIQUE.

Although it looks French, they are probably from China pretending to be from France as there is no company info or website.

The instructions also have Chinese, so it certainly cannot be French.

The colour indicated on the top right corner is not a real indicator of the nail varnishes true colour.

I got four colours silver-black, dark blue-blue, purple-violet, burgandy red-red.

The other colours I did not get were green and brown.

I have placed a tiny magnet on the nail varnish bottle so you can see the other colour that comes from the Magnetic effect.

Pastel blue and orange nail varnishes

Used the pastel blue and orange nail varnish by Sasatinnie and then applied a coating of Mavadry to it.

MAVALA Thinner for nail varnish

After applying the thinner to the thickened nail polish, it improved the nail polish and it was not so thick.

If may take quite a few drops if the polish is seriously thick!

sasatinnie pastel nail colours with some shimmer

Felt like some pastels colours on my nails, so used to the baby blue and pink by sasatinnie, additionally I put some irridescent colours on top of a similar shade to make the nails have extra shine.

On top I used a top coat as well to prevent chipping.

MAVALA MAVADRY Fast drying nail polish finish

I never knew such item existed!!

MAVADRY is a top coat that you put over wet nail varnish and dries the polish in seconds!

While I was looking for a thinner, I came across the MAVADRY, so I bought it as well to try.I couldnt believe it, I tried it over some cheapy nail varnish that doesnt dry and it really worked, and it made the nail varnish shinier and it had a really smooth finish.

It feels like a resin coating!!
The MAVADRY coating was interesting because I accidently dented the surface of my nails, but the coating was elastic and the dent disappeared!
The coating is clear pink in the bottle and had no smell!

Definately worth every penny.

Crackling nail polish

Got the silver crackling nail polish, so tried it over some bright colours.

The brands I used were SASA and Pinkey.
SASA is an economic brand from HONG KONG, however their polishes do not dry so well.
The silver crackling polish was not as good as I expected, the finishing felt rough, and it was not shiny.
I needed a top coat to bring back the shininess of the silver.

O.P.I DS Shimmer

After using Sally Hansens holographic series I was obsessed with holographic nail varnishes.
I found out that OPI also had a holographic series, so I got their DS Shimmer polish, which is just plain silver with holographic particles in it.

This time I experimented it over nails inc magnetic polish because after I coated the magnetic polish with clear varnish it went yellow, so I tried a top coat of DS Shimmer to cover that horrid yellowness.

nails inc Magnetic Polish

I still havent had a chance to try these yet after buying them, but visually the silver one is the best.

I put a strong magnet next to the bottle and I could see it changing colour.

The silver one has the best effect because it turns black, so if you imagine when its applied on your nails, you will see black and silver.

As well as a fun product, this brand is amazing, each nail varnish has its own name which is a place in london such as Knightsbridge, Bloomsbury square, Trafalgar square.

Finally had a chance to try the varnishes, and as expected the silver one was the best.

The gold one was absolutely functionless, it just came out as gold, and when the magnet was applied the other colour did not appear, and even when I put the magnet near the bottle, nothing happened.

The purple one was was ok, but not as striking as black and silver.

Pictures to be posted soon!!

Apart from having these magnetic effects, when the nail varnish had dried, there was this amazing visual effect which was as good as the holographic ones.
It had the same effect as CATS EYES GLASS BEADS or fiber optic beads where it changes hue as it captures and reflects light.
The patterns looked like it was moving and slightly changing colours!!

For the silver colour, I found that if a thick layer was applied you will get a striking black and silver effect, but if you have a bright colour layer beneath and apply a thinner layer then you will get three colours and it dries slightly quicker.

For the purple one, the colour is very dark, so when the magnet is appled you can't really see the effect, next time I will try a thinner layer with a coloured basecoat beneath, same with the gold as that virtually has no visible effect!

Sally Hansen Magical nail polish - Blue Aura

The blue holographic version in the Sally Hansen series called Blue Aura

INTERSENSE nail polish





Liked the clear fluorescent pink colour so I got it.

It doesnt really show up on the nails, but there is a slight pink sheen to it if you apply lots of layers.

By applying it over pale colours it gives it a two tone effect and if applied over some pinks, it makes the intensity stronger.

Sally Hansen Magical nail polish - Mystical mandarin

The best holographic nail varnish with the best holographic effects.
There are six colours: Fairy dust pink[Lilac], Mystical mandarin[Pink], Copper Cauldron, Blue Aura, Magical Magenta, Crystal ball, Purple potion.
They dry extremely quickly with a matt feeling.
However the only disadvantage is that it comes of easily.
