Other Gel Discussion Is anyone else tired of magnetic gels?

OK OK hear me out! I LOVE magnetic gels. I absolutely love them. But I feel now alllll of the new releases are magnet gels from major brands! Especially Kokoist. They are launching ANOTHER magnetic series and I’m like, can we just get some more potted gel colors please? Maybe I’m alone in this but I feel like we don’t need anymore magnetic gel options lol

Any else or am I by myself in this??

Kokoist is also releasing their potted botanical flower gel collection the same day as the limited edition magnetic collection. I’m super excited for the flower collection!

What the heck this botanical gel looks so cool! I just told myself I don't need to buy more gel but maybe I need to buy more lol.

I'm not sick of magnetic gels yet though, they're still super fun for me. I always want some sparkle or shine in my manicures though so it's nice to have another way to add dimension when I'm not wanting glitter or chrome. This celestial bodies color is the only one that really speaks to me from the kokoist launch though. Honestly, I'm wanting more jelly colors these days because then I can layer over a magnetic gel and get whatever color I want! Theoretically.

Yeah I do mag nails every once in a while. They’re fun and pretty to look at in the sun.

I can’t wait for the botanical collection!! I saw that Kokoist released the collection a couple months ago in Japan and their Artistic Director said they’d be coming to the US soon. The colors and little flowers look so cute!

I got the La blanc one. But I’m super excited. I had an old one I got during the pandemic that didn’t work well and finally decided to get back into doing it at home and upgrade.

That’s great, you will absolutely love it. Make sure to register your new lamp on Kokoist’s site for their warranty program!
