What's the difference between the Cat-Eyes?

You don't need a dark base color to see the full impact of the standard 3D Cat Eye polishes, as they are opaque and shimmer-filled. The magnet is optional.

Since the Top Cat Eye polishes aren't as "opaque" as the 3D Cat Eyes, you can layer them for a unique color combination. They work well with a dark base color.

3D Mood Change Cat Eye polishes don't need to have a dark color as a base. To use this, apply it like any other cat eye color, which will change color based on the temperature.

A dark foundation color is recommended for the new LB Supernova Cat-Eye polishes. This cat eye gel polish has a three-dimensional galaxy pattern on them. Depending on the angle of the light, each bottle will appear to have at least two distinct colors in them!
