Wood Magnet

Shills Professional Wood Magnet is a versatile magnetic nail art tool designed to create captivating cat eye, velvet and multidimensional effects with compatible magnetic gel polish. Featuring a convenient wood-style handle and magnetic working end, this nail art accessory provides comfortable handling and controlled positioning, allowing nail technicians to manipulate responsive magnetic particles into luminous highlights, directional patterns and customised magnetic nail designs.

When positioned close to uncured cat eye gel polish, the magnet influences the metallic magnetic particles suspended within the formula. By changing the angle, distance and position of the tool, nail artists can create a variety of visual effects—from classic cat eye highlights and concentrated reflective lines to softer velvet-style glows and dimensional magnetic patterns.

The practical handle design makes the Wood Magnet for cat eye nails easy to hold and manoeuvre during detailed nail art applications. Reusable and simple to incorporate into professional gel manicure services, it is an essential accessory for nail technicians, salons and nail artists who regularly work with magnetic gel polish.
