Morning, Moneypenny: Update

Hey guys, sorry it's been nearly a week since my last post, I was super busy and then just as I stopped being busy I came down with a cold (trust me, it takes a special person to catch a cold in the middle of Summer). I'll have a better post than this up as soon as I'm feeling a bit better. But in the meantime, I want to show you an update of OPI's 'Morning, Moneypenny'.

Some of you might remember that when I originally tried using 'Morning, Moneypenny' (post here) I had some difficulties getting the pattern to show up using the OPI magnet. This time I've used the China Glaze magnet. I found that the chevron design still didn't really work for me, but the stripes worked well and the star (on my middle finger) *sort of* worked. I found that it was more pronounced before I applied my top coat.

Here's some trouble shooting tips that I've put together for anyone who's having trouble using the magnetic polishes:
  • Apply a thin first coat, and a thick second coat.
  • No matter how long the magnet packaging tells you you should apply the magnet for, always do it for at least 20 seconds.

Ummm so I guess I only had 2 tips. But both of them worked for me so hopefully they'll help some of you out too! If anyone has any other tips feel free to leave them in the comments section below :)
