Cat Eye Magnets

Cat Eye Magnets by Mitty are strong nail-art magnets designed to help create defined patterns in magnetic cat-eye gel polish. Each set contains two magnets, giving nail technicians and confident home users practical tools for moving magnetic pigment before the gel is cured. Positioning the magnets above or beside the uncured polish can produce lines, curves, highlights and dimensional effects that make each manicure look customised.

Why Choose Cat Eye Magnets?

Magnetic gel polish needs a strong, responsive magnet to form a visible cat-eye effect. These Mitty tools are made to provide the magnetic pull required for creative salon designs. They can be moved around the nail to change the placement and direction of the reflective pigment, allowing you to experiment with a central highlight, diagonal line, side glow or soft curved effect.

The two-piece set is useful for nail stations that offer regular cat-eye services. Keep one magnet ready for detailed positioning and use the second when testing different angles or techniques. Because the design is formed before curing, you can reposition the magnetic effect until you are satisfied with the appearance.

Creating Cat Eye Gel Effects

Prepare the nails and complete the base steps required by your chosen Mitty gel system. If your cat-eye colour requires a dark base, apply and cure the recommended base colour first. Apply a layer of cat-eye gel polish and leave it uncured. Hold a Cat Eye Magnet close to the nail without touching the wet product, then move it around the top and sides of the nail until the magnetic pigment forms your preferred design.

Once the pattern is defined, cure the gel according to the instructions for your compatible lamp and polish. Complete the service with the recommended finishing coat. Magnetic pigment can continue to shift while the gel remains uncured, so work on one nail at a time when you want consistent placement across a full set.

Tips for Better Magnetic Designs

Hold the magnet close enough to influence the pigment while avoiding contact with the uncured gel. A short pause in one position creates a more concentrated highlight, while moving the tool changes the shape and direction of the effect. Test the angle on a sample tip before beginning a client set, especially when combining magnetic colour with other nail-art details.

Wipe the tools clean after use and store them away from loose metal implements. Do not place the magnet directly into gel polish. Always follow the application and curing instructions supplied with the gel products and lamp used for the manicure.
