9D Cat Eye Chrome Powder

Oh my goodness, I can not say enough about how cool this kit is. I was able to recreate nails i had done in Vegas years ago so it gave me good memories. Im so glad I bought this kit. It's absolutely amazing. I used it both ways and it was super easy to do. Good quality pigments too.

Sure, the containers are small. But if your someone like me and only do your own nails, it's pretty great! I used it both ways on this one set and i LOVE it! When i didn't like how the magnet was placed due to my own placement of it, all it took was a reswipe of the brush with the mix of powder and no-wipe top coat and voila. It was ready to try again. The longer you take to cure once you achieved the desired look with the magnet, it spreads the lines made by the magnet. Which is how i figured all this out, lol! All in all, will be ordering again for sure!

None of these had equal amounts in the containers, the pink one was almost half full, the teal was about a quarter full and the purple had barely any in it. So the quality control is not so good and neither is their measurements when pouring a product into a container. I definitely don’t think it’s worth $15, it is gorgeous, it does come with accessories but definitely not $15 worth

I'm glad the container was so large in comparison to the amount of product so that it doesn't spill when opened. There is plenty of each color to do 3 manicures of each (we did). I love the magnet, but I think I will use them as just regular chrome colors because the mixing is kind of a pain when premixed cat eye colors are available. If you want to customize your cat eye color, then I guess it might be worth it, but as a regular chrome, buffed on as usual between no wipe top coat layers, these are beautiful.

|NEW USER GUIDE PLEASE READ| I am giving this a 4 star rating im taking off one star for little product provided and colors are not quite exact to picture. With powders like these the background gel color matters!! To New Users, with chrome powders you need a non wipe clear top coat to rub the powder into your nails using a sponge eyeshadow applicator, a little goes a long way, it will not be moved around with the magnet at this point but will provide solid color i did it over white and black to show the contrast difference below. to make this into a magnetic polish you can put some of the powder into clear gel polish and mix, then youre able to use the magnetic wand to get the cat eye effect, how ever you may need a stronger magnet so keep one on hand. (I did a messy job because I was in a hurry and just wanted to show the contrast difference on black vs white gel polish on the same nail)

Compared to the cost of other companies, this product is dirt cheap so I kinda expected it to not look as pictured when applied (spoiler alert, the expensive versions use false advertising too). That being said, it IS holographic, it DOES do the cat eye (and many other looks all depending on your magnet choices) and it does NOT break the bank. All in all, I'll take an embellished product photo with those circumstances. Deff would be happier if the product matched the advertising, but meh.

Stunning! Color changes depending on the light and the angle off your nail. The green pictured was bright and sparkly in any light and changed to a bright blue, especially in sunlight. The pink was equally vibrant and gave a beautiful gold sheen. Unfortunately I did not get pictures of that one. The magnetic cat eye effect was striking and bold when mixing with clear top coat and applied over the black primer coat. The more pigment used the stronger the effect. I used 2 coats of the color for a very intense and opaque look. I have not tried rubbing the pigment on the nail for a chrome effect. I don’t know if I will as I love the cat eye feature so much. The jars do contain a small amount of powder but it doesn’t take much to get results and I still have plenty left. And really, the price isn’t bad considering you also get a jar of black gel primer, a brush and a magnet. I will definitely buy again and I would recommend this as an easy to use product for a new or experienced user.

So other's have got exactly what was advertised but I did not. The one I selected was supposed to have 3 cat eye pigments, a pod of black gel, a magnet stick and a nicer brush. The other kit is half the price for only 2 pigments, a bottle of black gel , a magnet and a little baggy of crappy brushes. I received 3 pigments, a baggy of crappy brushes, black gel bottle and a magnet. So I paid double the price of the 2 pack for a 3rd tiny container that doesn't have enough product to begin with. I am fuming I got ripped off when others got what they paid! The cat eye pigments is very good but I won't be a returning customer for the reasons stated above. If you are still considering purchasing it knowing you may get cheaper supplies from the smaller kit or maybe you are just getting the smaller kit i would say this is a good product. I did not prep my cheap swatches to be smooth, I also didn't top them with builder gel which would have made them look better and the chrome rub photo was not top coated at all.
