Nail Polish- an experiment

The metallic nail polish

I don’t normally wear nail polish (and the results will show you why I don’t) but there was a tic-toc thing going on about metallic nail polish and using an Apple Watch charger to manipulate the metallic flakes into French Tips or something.

 

 

 

I chose a cheap nail polish ($5, I think) at Amazon to test it out.

 

 

These were air dried.

These nails were air dried.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Right- dries on Apple Watch charger

 

 

 

 

 

 

These were dried while resting tip first on my Apple Watch charger.

 

 

 

 

Do you see a difference? I kind of don’t. Maybe these aren’t metal flakes and wont be attracted by magnets. Maybe it’s just a big hoax. Maybe I need more practice coloring in the lines.

I’m thinking he doesn’t do a lot of typing.

Have you seen these? Would you try it? Would you wear it? My need to wear nail polish is non-existence (my goth phase began and ended with a screening of “Beetlejuice” in the 80’s.) Lets discuss that, or my poor coloring skills, in the comments.

Now I am going to clip my fingernails back. (they’ll grow back to this length in two weeks. I could easily grow Howard Hughes nails. Too bad I can’t grow Howard Hughes assets as easily.)

    I don’t see much difference either. Cool idea though. Right now my nails are short but I love them long. Mine grow quicky and are hard so long works well. Then I have fun with them, nail polish – colors, patterns, decals, designs and lots more. Eventually a few break and I cut them all off for awhile. Then repeat. It’s only fingernails.

    LOVE the shimmery black aurora Musette. Obviously you need a friend to paint for you. I love Joan Mitchell’s paintings but pretty sure it’s not a nail polish movement.
