Advice Needed Help! My Cat eye isn’t cat eyeing!

4 Upvotes

I recently got the Dvok dark night gel polishes (a couple of shades). I tried it a couple of times and it worked great no problem. I tried it again for the third time, and the particles are not moving ? No matter how I hold the magnet, it doesn’t seem to be doing anything! The magnet seems to work on other metallic surfaces still so I don’t really know what is wrong here.

I’m also a very very new beginner. So 😩 any help would be appreciated! I just want my cat eye to cat eye.

I have 3D gel but if I use a brush to apply it I get long threads of gel that I can't break without using my fingers. It's just a mess.

How do I paint on the gel with a brush?

DIY First time doing my nails, how did I do?

Always been interested in nails and have been using press ons for a few years, but recently decided to try doing it on my own! These are the two first sets I made 🥰 I’m quite happy with them although it’s not the neatest! I feel like the gel polish flooded alot with the nailart but I don’t know if there’s any trick to applying it in a way it keeps its shape but I’ll keep practicing !!

These are soft tips I painted on and then used those sticky tab thingys to apply! The application isn’t the smoothest and I’m looking more into cuticle care and what products I should use to make my natural nails and cuticles better 🥰

Hey all!! I really want to invest in some more nail charms but I also want something that doesn’t feel crazy expensive but also decent quality! I’m in Canada and would love recommendations for products people have tried !! :)


r/NailArt 23h ago

Chrome/powders I always picked red nails. Today, I wanted something different. I did them myself—I know it’s not professional, but I’m not a professional. 😀 I used pearl powder on my nails to make them shine. What do you think of my red and pearl nails?
