✨ Chasing rainbows one nail at a time. ✨

These dreamy iridescent nails are giving all the ethereal, glass-like vibes thanks to NCE's Magic Chrome. The way they catch the light is pure magic and impossible to stop staring at. 🌈🤍

Layering Steps:
1. 1 of layer soft pastel gel polish colour of choice
2. 1 of layer of glitter gel polish (this may change the undertone gel polish colour)
3. 1 of layer of top coat
4. Rub magic chrome
5. Final layer of Gloss (or matte) top coat!

The result? A mesmerizing iridescent glow that shifts with every movement.✨

Products used:
✨ NCE Sweets Gel Polish (Soft Tones Collection)
✨ NCE Mist Gel Polish (Soft Tones Collection)
✨ NCE Oyster Gel Polish (Soft Tones Collection)
✨ NCE Opposite of Black Gel Polish (Soft Tones Collection)
✨ NCE Frost Me Gel Polish (Trendy Christmas Collection)
✨ NCE Reveal Gel Polish Top Coat

I've worked with quite a few cat eye gels over the years, and this NCE is one of those products that genuinely stands out. ✨

For this set, I layered NCE's 'Silver Spoon' Cat Eye over black gel polish and finished it with a sheer blue, creating this deep, ocean-inspired effect. 🌊

What makes this cat eye different for me is the control. When I position the magnetic particles exactly where I want them, they actually stay there. With many other brands I've used, the particles tend to disperse, shift, or simply don't respond as predictably to the magnet.

The result? A much more concentrated, vibrant cat eye effect with incredible depth and dimension instead of a sparse, washed-out shimmer.

If you've ever worked with cat eye gels, you'll know that manipulating the magnet takes practice. The angle, distance, and movement all matter. What I appreciate most about NCE's formula is that the particles move with intention—they follow the magnet exactly as expected, making it far easier to create the look you're envisioning.

For me, that's what separates a good cat eye gel from a great one.

I have created many colour varieties, stay tuned for some great inspo!

📦 ✨ New nail mail has arrived, and I may or may not have torn into this package the second it landed on my doorstep. 🤭

A huge thank you to for keeping my gel addiction well-fed because I am OBSESSED with these new additions to the collection.

If you’ve been following my journey, you may have noticed I’ve been a little quieter than usual lately. Life has been keeping me busy behind the scenes, and for those lovely humans joining me for a complimentary hand model experience in the coming weeks, I’ll share a little more about where I’ve been and what has been going on in my life ☕️.

Now for the fun part... 💅

The new French Collection (and possibly a Bridal Collection soon 👀) has me dreaming up all things elegant, timeless, and bridal-inspired. If soft glam, wedding nails, and classic French designs are your thing, you’ll definitely want to stick around.

I was also far too excited to get my hands on the Vamp Collection because let’s be honest... there’s always an occasion for a red nail. And if there isn’t? Wear the red nail anyway. ❤️

And with spring and summer finally making an appearance, I couldn’t resist adding the Honey Cat Eye Collection to the lineup. The possibilities for dimensional, light-catching nail art are already living rent-free in my head. ✨🐝

Which collection would you like to see me create with first?
