Make mums feel special this Christmas with one of these gorgeous nail varnishes from the Magnetic range at Nails Inc.

Its the festive season and that means nights out on the tiles glammed up to the nines, help mums on their way to a well deserved night out with the Trafalgar Square Magnetic Polish. This metallic chrome shade is so dramatic and glamourous, it gives instant wow factor, but its more than just a nail polish. This unique formula has been specially developed with metallic particles to create a pattern on the nail using magnetic forces – so mums can create their own nail art at home! As the magnet is held over the nail, the iron powder in the formulation gravitates toward the magnet forming the pattern or design secretly hidden in the magnet for an amazing finish!  

Try the stunning Houses of Parliament Magnetic Polish to get this look in an elegant purple finish.

Nails Inc. will pay £1 from the sale of the ‘Magnet Nail Polish’ with a minimum contribution of £25,000 to Prince’s Trust Trading Limited (PTT)
