When comparing cat-eye pigment samples, make the magnet setup part of the purchasing brief.
For nail-brand buyers and gel developers, a finished swatch is more useful when the team can trace how it was prepared.
Alongside the pigment reference, document the gel base, addition level, mixing procedure, application thickness and curing process. Then give the magnetic step its own short record.
Record the tool.
Identify the magnet used and its orientation relative to the nail. A simple photograph of the setup can make the instructions easier to follow.
Record the handling.
Note the working distance, positioning time and sequence of movements before curing. Use the same documented procedure when comparing candidates intended for the same look.
Record the result.
Photograph the cured swatch under consistent lighting, and add a short movement video. Label each file so the visual result stays connected to its preparation record.
If a candidate needs further work, choose a specific question for the next round rather than changing several conditions together.
This comparison supports visual selection. Each shortlisted pigment still needs evaluation in the intended gel formulation, including stability, curing and finished-product performance.
At Yiwu Bojun Pigment, we work with nail brands on effect-pigment sampling discussions. Sharing your application method alongside the target look gives us a clearer starting point.
Are you developing a cat-eye gel formula or selecting a finished nail-art effect?
