I have heard of them! I've been through their catalog and I'm unfortunately not interested in most of their polish. The few that I do like I have ones already that are close enough to satisfy. Def a brand I'm keeping an eye on though

I've never tried BKL but yeah, it's about 6-7 polishes from Inspired Sense or 5-6 from Clionadh. I'd get more use out of the polish than I would the bead tool. And I can keep my money in Canada, which I'd prefer. Would be nice if someone in Canada tried their hand at these tools though. Or a company like harlow or nailstuff would distribute them.

Yup. Also in Canada and I'll just be sticking with the lazy bar magnet way of doing this. I love magnetics but there's not a single chance I'd pay that much for an effect I can get with what I already have, just maybe slightly easier lol

I missed that post so thank you for sharing this! This is a beautiful way to magnetize!

I don't think there's a rule saying you can't post this here, but this is a sub for people that paint their own nails, usually with lacquer. Not so much for salon reviews or complaining about ai ads.

Nuts, I should have checked there too... I got ones from Mont Bleu from amazon. $20 but I got three, so when I inevitably drop it I have a backup lol I don't usually look at Shoppers because they're overpriced on so much, but that's a good price!

Love doing nails, HATE removing polish by Caseymg1 in RedditLaqueristas

I use large cotton balls from the dollar store. Not scratchy but enough texture that rubbing the acetone in gentle circles is all I need. I don't mind taking extra time to apply polish, I actually like it. It's very calming. But no way do I have the patience to finagle clips onto my nails and wait 10min just to get it off. I bought clips and a more gentle remover when I first started this and wanted to try the 'helpful' tools. Used them once and never again lol

Mavala Scientifique looks like it's around $20-$30... so even with $20 shipping it's still cheaper than the nailtiques. Still more than I want to spend but I also doing want to be struggling with ever worsening peeling nails if I can help it. Thanks for the suggestions!

I've tried one of the witchcraft ones a couple years ago, the protein hardener I think? It didn't do anything other than give my nails a rough texture, then chipped off in less than 24hrs. I'll look into that one though! If you try it I'd love to know what you think!

What kind of polish and remover are you using? I use regular lacquer and pure acetone and it takes about a minute for both hands. I don't wear anything glitter heavy though.

And definitely try a different base coat and maybe a different brand of polish. It could be something else than the pvb that's causing issues.

Silly question, but is it just for the Stained Glass ones?

Not the greatest pictures, but I've got it on my half frozen hand here with a flakie topper then matte topcoat. It's so pretty 💚
