This is my least favorite magnetic polish from Filthy Gorgeous. This magnetic is called Heavy Metal.
I applied 2 coats, and when I put the magnet over it, it pulled the pigment away to where you can see my nail through it! I wish it were more pigmented like its sister Got the Blues I posted yesterday. You can also see its particles in this polish, which isn't as noticeable as the other polishes I have.
Again this polish was purchased in the UK, and I am not sure of its availability here in the US.
You can see the nail through the top magnetic part. isn't that crazy! Maybe I should have put another coat.
I finish up magnetic week tomorrow with a Sally Hansen polish. so be on the look out for it!

Magnetic Week: Filthy Gorgeous Got the Blues
Ok, this is my absolute favorite magnetic that I own. It is simply gorgeous, and I think it is very unique in that the magnetic particles pull purple instead of black/grey!
This polish is called Got the Blues and it is from Filthy Gorgeous. This is a polish purchased in the UK, so I am not sure on how to get it in the US.
This is 2 easy coats of Got the Blues, and I used the magnet from the Nails Inc polishes, because it is stronger than the on that came with this polish. I also did a topcoat of Hong Kong Girl Topcoat, which is just amazing.
My absolute favorite thing about this polish is that the pulled magnetic pigments are purple, in contrast to the blue of the base, instead of pulling black or grey like they do in other magnetic polishes.
Look at the amazing purple shimmer that pops through with the magnet!
And a macro to show the purple shimmer up close!
I love this one!

Magnetic Week: Filthy Gorgeous In A Trance
Now that you have seen the Nails Inc Magnetic Polishes I have, I will be showing you the 3 Filthy Gorgeous magnetic polishes that i have. My awesome boyfriend brought these to me when he came to visit in March. As far as I know, these polishes are only available in the UK, or order them online.
This polish is more of a green/teal magnetic, at some times(especially in the bottle) it looks hunter green. and it is just as the name states, Gorgeous! This is 2 coats and topcoat, using the Filthy Gorgeous magnet that came in the cap.
And a macro!
I really love the look of these magnetics! And on the nail, there is so much dimension! I wish I could portray that on the nail through the photographs!
I am not sure where you can purchase these polishes, but they retail for £12.

Magnetic Week: Nails Inc - Whitehall
I ended up doing 2 coats of this polish, it was thin like Trafalgar Square, and wasn't as thick as Houses of Parliament.
And a Macro shot for the comparison post I am going to do!

Magnetic Week: Nails Inc Trafalgar Square
For the second installment of Magnetic Week, I have Nails inc Trafalgar Square, which is a silver magnetic polish.
Just like its sister Houses of Parliament, Trafalgar Square applied very well, and the magnet was very strong. I did 2 coats of Trafalgar square, because it wasn't as opaque in one coat as Houses of Parliament.
And a Macro for the comparison post at the end!
I am loving these magnetics!

Magnetic Week! Nails Inc - Houses of Parliament
Woooo! I have 7 magnetic polishes, so I am kicking off Magnetic Week with Houses of Parliament, an amazing Purple Magnetic Polish that is just glowing on my nails. The magnet give it an amazing 3D look you have to see yourself, it is just stunning!
The magnet on this polish is great! It is really strong, so it picks up the iron pigment in it. I would say don't do super thick coats, because if you do, and you hold the magnet for too long over the nails, the iron particles will begin to pick up off of the nail like they are crawling towards the magnet. Its kind of cool to see, but not what you want to happen on your nails. lol.
This is 1 coat of Nails Inc Houses of Parliament used with the Magnetic bar on the top of the lid, and a top coat of Seche Vite. :)
And a Macro, so I can do a Collective at the end! How gorgeous is this polish??
This polish applies so well and so effortlessly. The magnet didn't take long to leave the design, maybe 2-5 seconds. I did a topcoat, because I love how shiny it makes it. :)
My Boyfriend got this one for me and brought it to me for my birthday in March, and I have held on to it until now. He also got me 5 of the others I have to show you during my Magnetic Week! So I look forward to sharing with you the different polishes I have.
This polish I believe can be purchased from Amazon(which is Shipped by Sephora) or Sephora for $16

Day 4 Creative Lacquer Challenge: An Untried
For my Untried in todays challenge I am going to show you Nails Inc Whitehall. A MAGNETIC!
This magnetic is fantastic, it is a teal-y color and the magnet gives it black strokes across. It is so gorgeous! You may remember where I got this polish... my boyfriend brought it over when he came from the UK to visit me! <3
How pretty! This is in my untrieds because he brought me so many pretties I haven't known what to do with them all!
I will say I have swatched it on my nail swatch sticks, and on my finger I think, but it hasn't been shown on my blog, so I have it for you today. :)
Be sure to check out Bec's blog post for her nails today!
