The level of detail and clarity of communication in your “how to” vids is just amazing and highly appreciated. I’m an art teacher and I know how much work it is to plan out how to demonstrate and explain techniques! Great job!
@@HoloTaco I really like the floating magnetic style. Seams like less hassle. And over the black is magical. Trying all techniques! I love all the different effects so unique
I appreciate this video so much! Very needed for a beginner that has only dabbled in magnetic polish like myself! This must have taken foreverrr to make 🙀 it’s gorgeous 🤩
Omg this is silly but I remember watching your videos years ago when I was in middle school, stumbling onto your videos again now is so serendipitous, i remembered because of your page name and how excitedly you said that phrase in your old videos, much love ❤️🫶
Dang it why are there so many amazing holo taco polishes, how am I supposed to choose which red polish to wear for my wedding aaaahhhh its a blessing and a curse. I wish I had more nails to wear many shades ❤❤❤
i got mine yesterday!! love potion is my favorite by farrr but all of them are so shiny and beautiful and the BOX omg it will be my first one since the julien collection!!! u slayed cristine
omg haha i worded that so confusingly but i meant that i bought them yesterday :") they are not here yet although i will say shipping has been very fast in the past so you are not wrong!!! thank u so much either way, i will report back when i actually get them :)
@@kamiiuI just painted mine using one coat of wicked potion over black and it’s literally so beautiful the video doesn’t even do it justice especially in the sunlight. In summary I really like it lol
Hi, Simply! I got 2 magnets instead of 1! :) It seems they got stuck together during the packaging Just wanted to let you know about it. Maybe separating magnets with some cartons during the package assembly can help... Love you since the polish mountains! The polishes I ordered look gorgeous!
I was so excited to use this nail polish that I completely forgot the shake the bottles! Thankfully I looked this up and now my nails look great! Thanks for making this video, it's super helpful!
Bought the polish and have been using it! Definetly make sure you dont do thin coats and Ive been leaving the coats with the magnet below my finger for around 2-5 mins
I just got the Purrfect Bday pack and I was so lost on how it get these effects 😅 I'm so lost on how to use the magnet, but this helps so much! Thanks Cristine!
i am so excited for this launch, i think fairy tale and love potion are my favorites but it’s so hard to decide 🥺🤎💖 this collection was a home run, seriously
I thought magnetic polishes were over-hyped: unless you get the cat eye effect to work (and to stay) the base colour looks like mud... and even using all the hints & tips you give here, the effect has usually dissipated (for me) after 24 hours. However, the Holo Taco polishes look so good even unmagnetised that I am prepared to give magnetics another go. Fingers crossed (and thanks for insisting on bright, non-muddy base colours!!)
Same here! These are the first I’ve tried and no matter how long I hold the magnet over the polish for both the base color and again for the top coat, the cat eye doesn’t stay. Although the color and dynamics still looks gorgeous.
Just got my first magnetics in the mail this week and I accidentally bought some duplicates lmao I guess my coworkers and friends are getting some unexpected gifts this week! I regret not getting "queen's curse" before it was retired; I got menchie and zyler cat eye instead! I'm excited for zyler cat eye more than menchie because it is my only orange polish but menchie does match my cat's eyes so I had to get her's too!
For the dome effect, you hover wand on one side of nail and then the other - but for how long? I don't imagine it would be a full 60 seconds on each side since that may mean it's dry before you switch to the second side. Does it not have to be long for this method?
What I do is, one side 2 to 3 seconds then immediately the other side for 2 to 3 seconds. If need be I repeat it all for a second time but magnetics dry really fast by air so speed is of the essence.
Cristine has made the best metallic polish out there. I'm Serious. I've tested different brands and holotaco has the strongest effect and lasts 3x as long as other brands I've tried. I'm holo loyal in every way!!!
Hello, this might be a little random but... I just received my beautiful magnetic collection. It's stunning. I tried all the polishes on my nails (skittle style) and noticed thay the blue smells different than the rest. Like a rotten smell. Did anyone experienced this?
It would be cool to show differently shaped nails with this polish because its so interesting We always see your nail and Bens in the tutorial. Squoval Almond Ballerina Coffin
@@arandomcatwithinternetconn413...yeah... video was up yesterday on YT around 10 or 11am - so I ordered what I wanted for blk friday.. Just a few Minutes.. Very simple!!
@@arandomcatwithinternetconn413 lol.. Not yet.. Just the order was placed yesterday ...Since she said dlvy will go out on Monday.. Might get it Wednesday / Thursday by snail nail..lol
Ok so I have thick nails and long and nothing really goes on my nails I have to put lots of coats on. Holo taco is perfect for my nails the only issue I have is I don't have enough fingers to wear them all at once :( Absolutely amazing polish definitely best one I've ever used got so many collections now will keep buying it I will say holo taco is my addiction 😆 🤣
Does anyone know if the magnet works when doing swatches? If so, what's the trick because I think I may be screwing up somewhere. I've held the wand over & under, and I still can't get it.
What do you guys do with your old beautiful boxes.. I'm trying to hoard mine and they're so pretty to throw away. How can I make use of them, help! Lol
Absolutely love the collection, however, fairy tail and queens curse in my kit are not magnetizing at all :( They are beautiful shades, but I am bummed. The other three are stunners and work perfectly!
I REALLY wish I would have watched this before I did my mani lol I was sitting here wondering why it doesn't have the effect anymore. Well that's because I didn't hold the wand for very long at all
Can’t seem to get mine to work :( Held it over for at least a minute and stayed steady but the magnets didn’t stay magnetized and it would work for a couple of the colors at all. Going to try again, hope to get it to work!!
I got mine to work after shaking the bottle, applying a real thick coat and holding the magnet at an angle It kind of works with a thin coat but the effect isn’t as impressive unless it’s a thick coat
i know i missed the train a bit, but i’ve noticed my magnetic effects tend to become duller/not as pulled together within a day. im not sure how to fix this or if its normal with magnetic polishes
This video was very helpful! But I still don't think I got it. I let it dry over the magnet and I don't see the line at all. I'm Not sure what I did wrong. It's still really pretty either way.
I've tried the method of putting my finger on top of the magnet and hold it there for well over a minute, yet no matter how many times I try Queen's Curse, I can never get the stripe, not even a glimpse of the effect. What am I doing wrong?
I tried to buy holo taco for the 1st time last night but aferpay rejected me and I don't want to spend that much all at once this close to the holidays. I have 8 nieces and nephews to buy for. I'm glad after pay is secured but I don't know what I did wrong. (I also know after pay is it's own company and holo taco can't do anything to help)
1. I can't keep the wand steady enough and occasionally it touches my polished messing it up. I can't use the magnet underneath trick bc my fingers are too thick. 2. I held each layer under the magnet for a minute each, the top coat too and the line didn't stay defined. it faded, so the stripe is more of a blob in one general direction than complete line. Can anyone help me?
I’m so curious about what it would like like with a circular magnet-are there other ways to manipulate the polish? Does anyone know if Simply talked about that possibility on stream?
Both help prevent staining, but depending on each individuals body chemistry and porousness of the nail some base coats may work better than others for different people, and every nail polish is made with different pigments that vary in causing staining (bright magnetics are on the higher likelihood of staining side due to vibrant pigments). If you’re not sure and your goal is to avoid staining, we suggest doubling up on a base coat and trialing on one nail to test!
Do you have to repeat 1 min magnet for every topper you use on top? I love layering Holo taco but 1 min a layer is a lot if you do 2 magnetic layers, 2 toppers and glossy taco 😭
No you don't magnetize the glossy top coat as the magnetic particles only move in the color coats and only while they are wet, not after they have dried. She showed the speed option in the middle of the video where you only magnetize the 2nd color layer :) The effect won't be as distinct compared to magnetizing both the 1st and 2nd layers of color, but will still be pretty and give you the speed you are looking for 😉
I can’t get the dome effect to last after everything has fully dried hours later. I usually do my manis at night. It looks great when I first finish for maybe 30-60 minutes, but when I wake up in the morning, the effect goes flat since the glitter disperses evenly over the nails and just looks like regular shimmer :/ any help? Do I need to buy two magnets to keep on either side so I can keep them on longer?
This is so cool! Sad that even the older releases are too expensive to get shipped to the UK. I appreciate they are more expensive due to the quality and being vegan and cruelty free but it would be £30 for one bottle with the black Friday discount.
The level of detail and clarity of communication in your “how to” vids is just amazing and highly appreciated. I’m an art teacher and I know how much work it is to plan out how to demonstrate and explain techniques! Great job!
Also this is SO helpful and the amount of time and care you put into this is so apparent ❤

5minutes 55 secondes. I love this type of satisfying detail ahah
I got twice in a blue moon for Christmas, can’t wait to try all of these!!

Omg Holo Taco has evolved! I love thissssss
I’m so excited to finally try magnetic polish! It looks like a galaxy 🌌
Wow so gorgeous it looks best over black in my opinion can't wait to get it someday ♥️🍭
My cat loved watching the movement of the polish haha
Hello, this might be a little random but... I just received my beautiful magnetic collection. It's stunning. I tried all the polishes on my nails (skittle style) and noticed thay the blue smells different than the rest. Like a rotten smell. Did anyone experienced this?
I just got mine yesterday. I will check the blue out!
@@plumpy_space_princess thank you. Please let me know.
@@judithromero6817 it smells like nail polish + rotten egg 🥚 🤢
i don't know why, but every time i paint with the magnetic polish i have to rewatch this like i've never done it before lol
Thank you for explaining how long to hold the magnet. I got cat eye gels for christmas and i thought they werent working lol
I can't wait to try them when they arrive, I got 3 so I'm gonna fuck around and find out. Love you Cristine 😘
It would be cool to show differently shaped nails with this polish because its so interesting

Is that important for getting to the effect to stay?

Can we get an advanced magnetics tutorial for more designs?? Like for example if you have two magnetics haha
Beautiful work. Holo-glam!
So excited to receive mine!
Question, for the dome style, how long do we hold the magnet on each side of the nail? (:
Does anyone know if the magnet works when doing swatches? If so, what's the trick because I think I may be screwing up somewhere. I've held the wand over & under, and I still can't get it.
This is fantastic!
Stunning
Please make a pastel pink! 🌸
Im so excited to receive my polishes I bought 14 🤑
This tutorial is great, I just wish there was narration in addition
What do you guys do with your old beautiful boxes.. I'm trying to hoard mine and they're so pretty to throw away. How can I make use of them, help! Lol
Me either! I may just give them away (on discord).
My package just arrived! Just can’t decide which colour to try first 😅
I love this
Absolutely love the collection, however, fairy tail and queens curse in my kit are not magnetizing at all :( They are beautiful shades, but I am bummed. The other three are stunners and work perfectly!
I REALLY wish I would have watched this before I did my mani lol I was sitting here wondering why it doesn't have the effect anymore. Well that's because I didn't hold the wand for very long at all
I appreciate your tutorial. Can I put it on natural nails and what is the top coat?
i'm gonna try 3d dome in my first time using magnetic polish... pray for me, girlies!!!
It's not working for me!
Can you do a video on how to start a nail polish line?
Definitely should’ve watched this video before applying the polish 😅
Can’t seem to get mine to work :(
Held it over for at least a minute and stayed steady but the magnets didn’t stay magnetized and it would work for a couple of the colors at all.
Going to try again, hope to get it to work!!
I got mine to work after shaking the bottle, applying a real thick coat and holding the magnet at an angle
It kind of works with a thin coat but the effect isn’t as impressive unless it’s a thick coat
I wonder if it is possible to use these small magnetic balls they sell as a toy. Would there be any dotted or checked effect? What do you think?
i know i missed the train a bit, but i’ve noticed my magnetic effects tend to become duller/not as pulled together within a day. im not sure how to fix this or if its normal with magnetic polishes
Since the coats need to thick, how long does this take to dry?
How do you get it to DRY? I've waited up to 15 minutes for one nail and not a tiny bit tacky, much less dry...
Never works for me with those magnets the stick ones with the little end or even the new one I got I’m so frustrated
This video was very helpful! But I still don't think I got it. I let it dry over the magnet and I don't see the line at all. I'm Not sure what I did wrong. It's still really pretty either way.

Alien technology
I have to get better at my application- my mind just doesn’t want to do thick coats 😭
Normal magnate not work on normal nail polish?
1. I can't keep the wand steady enough and occasionally it touches my polished messing it up. I can't use the magnet underneath trick bc my fingers are too thick.
2. I held each layer under the magnet for a minute each, the top coat too and the line didn't stay defined. it faded, so the stripe is more of a blob in one general direction than complete line.
Can anyone help me?
how do i know if the problem is magnet or gel polish?
I’m so curious about what it would like like with a circular magnet-are there other ways to manipulate the polish? Does anyone know if Simply talked about that possibility on stream?
She uses the circular magnet to create the French tip... or are you referring to the ring magnet?
I definitely should have watched this first 😭 I did the top coat before trying the magnet and it didn't work 😅
Is there a way to make it look like a star gem ?
Does anyone know if the long-lasting base coat or smoothing base coat protects from staining?
long lasting and smoothing base will protect from staining. Peely not so much
If ur super worried about it i would use both then.
Both help prevent staining, but depending on each individuals body chemistry and porousness of the nail some base coats may work better than others for different people, and every nail polish is made with different pigments that vary in causing staining (bright magnetics are on the higher likelihood of staining side due to vibrant pigments).

Is Queen's Curse the polish that's featured on this video's thumbnail?
Yes it is💜
Simply… you sent us to the wrong video in your IG story. LOVE this video, but it was supposed to be the launch vid.
how does it look over white tho-?
I cant manage to do any effect except on my thumb nail 😢😂
I think that these are beautiful, but I just don't have the patience for normal polish anymore. I wish you would come out with gels. 🙁
Is that BENS hand lol
This is so cool! Sad that even the older releases are too expensive to get shipped to the UK. I appreciate they are more expensive due to the quality and being vegan and cruelty free but it would be £30 for one bottle with the black Friday discount.
