Anela's Professional Tip

"Cat Eye effects are consistently popular with customers because they appear vibrant depending on the light incidence and hand movement. For dark base colors, I recommend the transparent overlay – that creates the most intense contrast. With pigmented colors, the magnetic moment is crucial: if cured too late, the effect blurs." – Anela Mucic, World Champion Nail Design 2023 & INJA Juror
