Unleashing the Velvet Effect and Cat Eye Effect using ILMP Horseshoe Magnet!
Dreaming of nails that look and feel like luxurious? The velvet nails and cat eye effect nails are all about that striking, luminous line that seems to float across your nail and looks super luxurious. Here's how your ILMP horseshoe magnet can help you achieve this stunning magnetic nail textures:
- Prep Your Nails: Start with your usual manicure routine – file, buff, and apply a base coat.
- Apply Magnetic Polish: Choose a magnetic nail polish specifically designed for a velvet effect and cat eye effect. Apply one coat and let it dry completely. Then, apply a second, thicker coat.
- The Magnetic Dance: (For Velvet nails)While the second coat is still wet, carefully position one pole of your ILMP horseshoe magnet very close to the nail surface, without touching it. Hold it there for about 10-15 seconds. You'll start to see the magnetic particles in the polish being drawn upwards, creating that signature raised, velvety texture. (For Cat Eye Nails) While the second coat is still wet, hold the ILMP horseshoe magnet horizontally or diagonally over your nail, again keeping it very close without touching. The magnetic particles will be drawn towards the center of the magnet's poles, forming that characteristic line. Hold for 10-15 seconds.
- Experiment with Placement: Try holding the magnet at different angles (vertical, diagonal) to create various line directions. You can even try using just one pole of the horseshoe for a thinner, more defined line.
- Repeat for Each Nail: Work one nail at a time, ensuring you hold the magnet over the wet polish to achieve the desired velvet effect before it dries.
- Top It Off: Once all nails are dry, apply a clear top coat to seal in the design and enhance its longevity.

Why the Horseshoe Shape Helps: The curved shape of the horseshoe magnet can help create a more diffused and all-over velvet effect compared to a smaller, single-pole magnet. Experiment with holding different parts of the curve over your nail to see the variations you can achieve!
The Power of 30 lbs: The strength of your ILMP magnet (30 lbs!) means you'll likely achieve a very distinct and sharp cat eye line. Be mindful of the proximity to your nail – you won't need to hold it far away to see the effect.
Caring for Your Powerful Tool: Magnet Maintenance
A 30 lb magnet is a serious piece of equipment! To ensure its longevity and your safety, follow these maintenance tips:
- Safe Storage: When not in use, store your ILMP horseshoe magnet in a safe place, with the keeper on and store it away from electronic devices (computers, phones, credit cards) and any metal objects that could be attracted to it. Its strong pull could cause damage.
- Handle with Care: While robust, avoid dropping or subjecting the magnet to strong impacts, as this could potentially weaken its magnetic force over time.
- Keep it Clean: If the magnet gets dusty or picks up stray magnetic particles (like paperclips!), gently wipe it clean with a dry cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions that could cause corrosion.
- Safe Storage: When not in use, store your ILMP horseshoe magnet in a safe place, with the keeper on away from electronic devices (computers, phones, credit cards) and any metal objects that could be attracted to it. Its strong pull could cause damage. Consider storing it in its original packaging or a designated container.
- Keep Away from Children: Due to its strength, this magnet is not a toy and should be kept out of reach of children.
