FAQ

What is Water Light Cat Eye?

Magnetic Cat Eye sub-finish with soft translucent pastel base + subtle shimmer mimicking sunlight on dewdrops. The 3D Cat Eye line shifts with light/angle when magnet wand aligns the magnetic particles.

Do I need a magnet wand?

YES — REQUIRED. Without magnet (held 2-3mm above wet uncured gel for 5-10s), you get flat shimmer instead of Cat Eye line. Lavis Cat Eye Magnetic Wand designed for this purpose.

Why 60-90s LED cure (not 60s)?

Cat Eye gel needs longer cure time than standard gel polish due to magnetic particle alignment. 60-90s LED ensures full cure and Cat Eye line preservation.

HEMA-Free?

No — standard Lavis Cat Eye formula. Pair with Lavis Builder Gel BIB HEMA Free as base for sensitive clients.
