Pro Tips for Perfect Magnetic Designs Every Time

Work quickly – Magnetic designs must be created on wet, uncured gel. Have your magnet ready before you apply the polish.

Steady hands win – Any movement while the magnet is near the nail will distort your design. Rest your hand on a stable surface.

Distance matters – The closer the magnet, the more concentrated the design. Start at 2-3mm and adjust based on your desired effect.

Stronger magnets = faster results – If your design isn't forming quickly, you may need a stronger magnet or a gel with more magnetic particles.

Practice on a nail wheel first – Get comfortable with positioning and timing before working on a client.

Clean your magnet – Wipe it down with alcohol between uses to prevent gel buildup that can weaken the magnetic pull.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a Y-shaped magnet used for?
A: The Y-shaped magnet is a specialized nail art tool designed to create heart and bunny designs with cat eye gel polish. The unique Y-shaped attachment manipulates the magnetic particles in the gel to form precise patterns. You can also remove the attachment and use the magnet alone for classic cat eye effects.

Q: Do I need to cure the gel before or after using the magnet?
A: Use the magnet on wet, uncured gel polish immediately after application. Once you've created your design, cure the gel according to your gels' specifications. Never use the magnet on cured gel.

Q: Can I use this magnet with any cat eye gel polish?
A: Yes! The Y-shaped magnet is compatible with all magnetic gel polishes, including cat eye gels and magnetic chrome gels. The stronger the magnetic particles in your gel, the more defined your design will be.

Q: How do I create heart designs with this magnet?
A: For perfect hearts, follow these three steps:

1. Attach the Y-shaped base with the arm closest to the magnet
2. Hold the magnet close to your wet gel polish (the stronger your magnet, the faster the design forms)
3. Position the base pointing down, not up, and hold steady for 3-5 seconds

Q: What's the difference between using the attachment vs. the magnet alone?
A: The Y-shaped attachment creates specific patterns like hearts and bunnies. When you remove the attachment, you can use the magnet by itself to create traditional cat eye effects. It's like getting multiple tools in one!

Q: How close should I hold the magnet to the nail?
A: Hold the magnet/attachment approximately 1-3mm above the nail surface. The closer you hold it, the more concentrated the design. Experiment with distance to create different intensities and effects.

Q: How long do I need to hold the magnet over the gel?
A: Typically 3-5 seconds is enough for the magnetic particles to form your design. If you're using a weaker magnet or a gel with fewer magnetic particles, you may need to hold it for up to 10 seconds.

Q: Can I create other designs besides hearts and bunnies?
A: Absolutely! While the Y-shape is optimized for hearts and bunnies, creative nail techs have discovered you can create various patterns by rotating the magnet, layering multiple passes, or combining it with other magnetic tools.

Q: How do I clean and maintain my nail magnet?
A: Wipe the magnet with a lint-free wipe and The One Solution (isopropyl alcohol) after each use to remove any gel residue. Avoid getting gel polish directly on the magnet surface. Store in a cool, dry place away from electronic devices.

Q: Will this magnet lose its strength over time?
A: High-quality magnets like ours maintain their magnetic strength for years with proper care. Avoid dropping it, exposing it to extreme heat, or storing it near other strong magnets.
