Whether you're a seasoned tech or just building your nail empire, this look is proof that the right products and a little magnet magic go a long way.
What You’ll Need for Pool Nails
- Sterling Magnetic for that shimmering base. Get yours while stocks last!
- Glass Blue to add dreamy depth
- TGB Dual-Ended Magnetic Tool + Beads to create your signature wave
- Extreme Shine Top Coat for a flawless finish
- Light the Way Nail Lamp to cure to perfection
Step by Step: Wave It Like You Mean It
Step 1: Build Your Base
Apply one coat of Pool Party & cure. Then, go in with your second coat, but don’t cure yet. Instead, glide your magnetic tool from side to side — this brings the glitter to the surface and sets the tone for the wave.
Step 2: Craft the Current
Attach magnetic beads to a spatula, then hover and hold over the uncured polish. You’ll see the gel respond, forming soft ripples with every movement. Once you’re happy, cure using the TGB Light the Way Nail Lamp.
Step 3: Layer + Gloss
Seal in the wave with a coat of Glass Blue and cure again. Then finish with Extreme Shine Top Coat for that iconic mirror-like shine.
Why Nail Techs Love It
Amber’s technique proves that artistry and efficiency can live side-by-side. Less time, more creativity and a finish that leaves clients swooning, what’s not to love?
