cateye nails

Cat-eye press-on tips commonly come in popular shapes such as Long Square, Short Coffin, and Long Stiletto. Packs typically include multiple sizes (usually 15–16 distinct sizes) and sold quantities often total around 150–160 tips per pack.

Magnetic cat-eye gel polishes contain ultra-fine magnetic pigments; hovering a magnet tool over the wet polish before curing aligns those particles into a reflective, cat-eye stripe that becomes fixed when the polish is cured.

Most cat-eye gel polishes require an LED curing lamp (sold separately). Typical guidance is a 60-second cure per nail, though times can vary by formula. Some formulas state no base or top coat is required, while others offer an optional top coat for extra shine and durability.

Key tools include a magnet tool to form the cat-eye stripe and an LED curing lamp for gel polishes. Starter kits may also include prep pads, manicure sticks, a nail file, and a mini buffer for surface prep and finishing.
