Step 1: Prep and prime
Start by preparing your nails. File them into your desired shape and gently push back the cuticles. Apply a layer of base coat to protect your natural nails.
Step 2: Base color
Apply a thin layer of your chosen cat-eye gel polish. Make sure to cover the entire nail surface. Cure it under the gel nail lamp according to the instructions.
Step 3: Magic at work
Apply a second layer of cat-eye gel polish, but this time, don’t cure it yet. Immediately hold the cat-eye magnet tool close to your nail while the polish is still wet. Gently hover the magnet over the nail without touching it. You’ll witness the mesmerizing cat-eye effect unfold before your eyes. Once you’re satisfied with the design, cure the polish under the gel nail lamp.
Step 4: Sparkle and shine
Now it’s time to add some bling! Using a dotting tool or a toothpick, dab a small amount of nail glue where you want to place the rhinestones. Carefully pick up the rhinestones with a tweezer and press them onto the glue, creating your desired pattern or design. Let the glue dry completely.
Step 5: Finishing touch
Seal your gorgeous cat-eye rhinestone nail art with a layer of top coat. This will protect the rhinestones and give your nails a high-shine finish. Cure the top coat under the gel nail lamp for the perfect, long-lasting result.
Voila! You now have glamorous cat-eye rhinestone nails that are bound to turn heads wherever you go. 😻✨ Show off your stunning manicure and let your fingertips steal the spotlight!
Remember to practice patience and precision when working with gel polish and rhinestones to achieve the best results. Have fun and let your creativity shine! 💅🌈
