cat eye polish

Listings commonly show light to dark and metallic palettes, with visual effects such as iridescent shimmer, pearly cat-eye glow, glitter accents, and high-shine finishes.

Prep nails by cleaning, trimming, and buffing. Apply a thin base or first coat, then use the magnet tool over the wet polish to form the cat-eye effect before curing. Cure each nail with an LED lamp, and finish with an optional top coat for extra shine and durability.

Starter kits often include a magnet/effect tool, an LED lamp, prep pads, manicure sticks, a nail file, a mini buffer, and one or more polish bottles.

Cat-eye polishes are offered in gel and liquid formulas. Common finish descriptors include glitter, iridescent shimmer, gloss/shimmer, and high-shine.

Descriptions mention magnet tools (often strong neodymium magnets) to shape magnetic particles, plus LED curing lamps to fix the effect.

Product details claim up to 14 days of wear with proper application and curing; reviews commonly report about a week of wear with occasional peeling.
