For day five of the challenge (or day two for me) I have Spitalfields by Nails Inc which is a shimmery green magnetic polish. I found this one at Marshal's for the ridiculously low price of 93 cents. Crazy considering that it retailed for about $15 when it first came out. I wasn't previously much into the magnetic polish trend, but the fishnet pattern caught my eye. Plus everyone at work pretty much though it was witchcraft that I did this with a magnet, so that's a win for me.
The instructions say to paint a thin coat on all your nails first and let it dry. Next, doing one nail at a time, paint a slightly thicker coat and hold the magnet just above the surface of the polish for a few seconds.
I feel like magnetic polish is an easy way to get some pretty intricate looking nail art. I messed up on a few nails and blurred the image or only got half the nail, but it was easy to paint a fresh layer on top and try the magnet again. The end result is a look with lots of depth and interest.
Here's what the other ladies have come up with for day five:

That pattern is so cool! And I can't believe you got it for under a $1! Great bargain shopper! <3
