• Nail Preparation:
  • Start by cleaning your nails with a nail cleanser to remove any oils or residue.
  • Gently push back your cuticles and file your nails into the desired shape.
  • Apply a thin layer of base coat and cure it under the UV/LED lamp.
• Applying the Cat Eye Gel Polish:
  • Apply a thin layer of the cat eye magnetic gel polish to your nails.
  • Cure the first layer under the UV/LED lamp according to the polish instructions.
  • Apply a second layer of the cat eye gel polish, but do not cure it immediately.
• Creating the Cat Eye Effect:
  • Hold the magnet close to the surface of your nail without touching the polish.
  • Move the magnet slowly to create the desired cat eye pattern.
  • Once the pattern is achieved, cure the polish under the UV/LED lamp.
• Sealing the Design:
  • Apply a thin layer of top coat to seal and protect the cat eye design.
  • Cure the top coat under the UV/LED lamp.
  • Wipe your nails with a nail cleanser to remove any sticky residue.

Safe Methods for Removing the Cat Eye Nail Effect

• Step 1: Gently file the top layer of the gel polish to break the seal.
• Step 2: Soak a cotton ball in acetone and place it on your nail.
• Step 3: Wrap each nail with aluminum foil to hold the cotton ball in place.
• Step 4: Allow your nails to soak for 10-15 minutes.
• Step 5: Gently push off the softened gel polish with a cuticle pusher.
• Step 6: Buff your nails lightly to remove any remaining residue.

Tips for Protecting Natural Nails During Removal

1. Use Acetone Sparingly: Prolonged exposure to acetone can dry out your nails and cuticles. Limit the soaking time and moisturize afterward.
2. Be Gentle: Avoid scraping or peeling off the gel polish forcefully, as this can damage the natural nail surface.
3. Post-Removal Care: After removing the gel polish, hydrate your nails and cuticles with a nourishing oil and apply a nail strengthener to help them recover.
