Gel-Le - C04 Hawk (Cat Eye Gel)

Cat eye gels make creating stunning, eye-catching nail designs effortless and fun. With just a magnet, the metallic particles in the gel shift and reflect light, forming beautiful cat-eye effects, soft waves, or bold dimensional lines in seconds. Whether you’re a beginner or a professional nail tech, cat eye gels allow you to achieve salon-quality, high-impact designs with minimal effort—perfect for adding depth, shine, and a touch of luxury to any manicure. ✨💅

Applying cat eye gel colors is simple and fun, and it creates stunning dimensional effects. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

1. Prep the nails – Shape, buff, and cleanse the nails. Apply a base coat and cure under a UV/LED lamp.

2. Apply a base color – Use a black or dark gel polish for maximum cat-eye effect (lighter colors give a softer look). Cure fully.

3. Apply cat eye gel – Apply a thin, even layer of the cat eye gel but do not cure yet.

4. Use the magnet – Hold the magnet close to the nail (without touching) for 5–10 seconds to create your desired design—lines, waves, halo, or diagonal effects.

5. Cure – Once the design is set, cure the gel under the lamp.

6. Seal it – Apply a top coat and cure again for a glossy, long-lasting finish.

✨ Pro Tip: Experiment with different magnet positions to create unique designs on every nail.
