01:16Oh my gosh!

01:17Oh my gosh!

01:17That's like your rings.

01:18I can tell that you're taken from.

01:20That's exactly what I want.

01:22Like I'm wrong.

01:23I could be looking at her from another state and be like, oh she's taken.

01:25I'm like, oh we know.

01:26We know.

01:26I see it.

01:27While we were on tour, I was like fitting different rings.

01:30And there's like a store.

01:31You were fitting them?

01:32You were fitting?

01:32I like trying them on.

01:34I did it all the time.

01:35Really?

01:35When I go out in the mall, I literally do that.

01:37I just like look at different rings.

01:37On my off days, I go to the mall and try on wedding rings.

01:39Yeah, like engagement rings.

01:41Why not?

01:41Engagement rings.

01:42It's so fun.

01:43Period.

01:44I would get like a tattoo of band.

01:46Of a wedding ring?

01:47No, no.

01:47Of like a band on my ring finger.

01:49That's cute.

01:50That's cute.

01:51I'm Juan Alvear and I will be making nails today for Allure's cover shoot featuring Cat's Eye.

01:57So we have five different girls with their own personalities, but also the shoot itself is polka dot themed.

02:06I went to school for painting and sculpture in New York.

02:09I was making paintings using nail polish.

02:12I was also making jewelry and started experimenting with making like the jewelry that would fit on the nail.

02:19Well, magazines started hitting me up to do editorials because they hadn't really seen like surrealist nail art being done.

02:28Is it a coincidence that you have polka dots on you?

02:30When I found out it was like a polka dot theme shoot, I thought I should make my nails polka

02:34dot.

02:34So, yeah.

02:35I like to make different options.

02:37I like to just kind of go for it and see what's working.

02:41And then when I show up, give the person that I'm working with multiple options.

02:46Okay.

02:48So I think that's all of them.

02:49The menu for the girls is done.

02:51I'll show them their options and see which nail suits each one of them the best.

02:57You just have to giggle.

02:58She's been giggling.

02:59How's it going over here?

03:00Good.

03:01Cute.

03:02All kind of like polka dot inspired.

03:04Is there any that kind of like speak to you?

03:06Um, I'm loving this one.

03:08I'm into it.

03:09Yeah.

03:09Okay, cool.

03:10Okay, cool.

03:10We'll go with this.

03:11Yay, I'm excited.

03:13Hey.

03:14Okay.

03:15So, for the shoot, we have some options.

03:18So I also like that one too.

03:20I like that one.

03:20Okay, sweet.

03:22But they're all cute.

03:23I love them all.

03:24Hey.

03:25What is speaking to you?

03:27I love all of them.

03:29But I like this.

03:31Yeah?

03:31I think this one suits you.

03:32Yes.

03:33I love it.

03:34Thanks.

03:35Is it my turn?

03:36Yeah, it is.

03:37Because you can just kind of sit with it and think about what you like.

03:42I'm going to have to do this because it's pinky up arrow.

03:44That's very much you.

03:44This is very me.

03:46That's very me.

03:46I'm not looking at anything else.

03:48I looked at it and I was like, that's so funny.

03:49Wait, let me see.

03:50Let me see.

03:51Yeah, I would pick that one for you.

03:53Pretty pink.

03:54I think majority room.

03:55I saw that and I was like that.

03:56Sofia, yeah.

03:57That's mine.

04:00What do you think?

04:01I think...

04:02Yeah.

04:03This one.

04:04The pink one I'm so obsessed with.

04:05This is you.

04:06Me and Laura chose the same nails.

04:08We always choose.

04:09Same thing.

04:09We always choose the same thing.

04:10Our nails are our literal personalities.

04:13Meghan and then Yunche.

04:14Like it makes sense.

04:15It makes so much sense.

04:16Okay.

04:17Here you go.

04:18Yeah.

04:18Am I allowed to read those magazines?

04:20These?

04:22Wow.

04:22There's also Kim.

04:23Wait, can I do the camera?

04:25I was watching the Kardashians last night.

04:28My models of the year.

04:29Oh, yes.

04:30Look at these girls.

04:31So iconic, those two.

04:33Wait, Selena looks so hot in that.

04:35I know.

04:36I was just watching Wizards.

04:37Wait, can I see?

04:38I can't see.

04:39She looks gorgeous.

04:39Oh, she looks pretty.

04:41Selena.

04:46What's your favorite Kylie song?

04:48I feel like it would be Pinky Up.

04:50Oh, really?

04:51Yeah.

04:51I think that's my favorite one.

04:52Yeah, I was going to say.

04:55Dance is really cute.

04:56And I also thought it would be like a cute salon name.

04:59Pinky Up.

05:00Pinky Up.

05:01Wait, that's so true.

05:03I feel like sound-wise, I really like Gnarly.

05:05What's your favorite one?

05:06It's not out yet.

05:07It's not out yet?

05:08Oh.

05:09What's your favorite Katzai song?

05:11Let's choose one that's out.

05:12M.I.A.

05:13I'd say mine's, yeah, either M.I.A.

05:16I actually really like Pinky Up.

05:19What else?

05:20If I were to choose one that's already out, I would say Game Boy.

05:22Oh, yeah.

05:23I like Game Boy.

05:23I love Game Boy.

05:24And I love Touch.

05:25I love Touch and Game Boy.

05:26I remember when I first heard Game Boy, I was like, yes!

05:28Like, this has to be, like, on, like, the EP.

05:31And, like, I was obsessed with it.

05:32So, that's probably top of mine.

05:35It's very catchy.

05:35And I love the choreo.

05:36Do you think Pinky Up is better?

05:38Or...

05:38We Ride.

05:39We Ride.

05:40We Ride.

05:41Yeah, I agree with you.

05:42We Ride.

05:43It's just all about taste, I think.

05:45I want to sing.

05:49Like, when was the last time you were in an actual nail salon?

05:53Hmm.

05:55Low-key?

05:55Probably, like, two months ago.

05:57Two months ago?

05:58Okay, that's not that long ago.

05:59No, because I just, like, peeled them off myself.

06:03Oh, yeah.

06:03How do you do that?

06:04I thought you might have.

06:06That's why they look a little bit crazy.

06:08Oh, sis.

06:08Yeah, probably, like, two months ago.

06:10She goes to that.

06:10I've never been recognized.

06:12Nah.

06:12Actually, one time...

06:13No, no.

06:14One time...

06:14We got filmed.

06:15We got filmed.

06:16Yeah.

06:17We were at the salon, and somebody's child posted it on TikTok.

06:21Yeah.

06:22It was kind of crazy.

06:23We had it taken down, because I was like, you can't do that.

06:26Also, CCTV footage, it's like, with audio of what we're seeing.

06:29Yeah, it was with audio.

06:31Yeah, we were, like, illegal.

06:32I was wearing the worst outfit ever.

06:34One time, I went into a nail salon, and I was like, why is everyone coming up to me, like...

06:37And I had no makeup on, and I was like, oh my god, like, it's so bad.

06:40I got home, and I looked in the mirror, and I was wearing a cat-sized shirt, like...

06:43Oh, my face.

06:44Well, there you go.

06:46I was like, oh my god.

06:47We wear our own merch a little too much.

06:49I wear it all the time.

06:50Guys, imagine pulling up like this to the actual nail salon.

06:53That would be so cunt.

06:55That would be so cunt.

06:56Let's put them on all the way, huh?

06:58Wait, what are they?

06:58These are collagen gloves.

07:00Oh, can I have collagen gloves?

07:01So these are just going to moisturize the hands after the dry manicure.

07:02Wait, what?

07:03Can I get the brand?

07:05Collagen gloves?

07:06That's awesome.

07:07I got some moisturizing gloves.

07:08It's a little extra treatment, yeah.

07:09Yeah, you guys don't get this because...

07:10She paid extra for it.

07:11No, but you know your hands are the ones that are going to reveal the aging and all that stuff.

07:16That's true.

07:16Especially because how much we put into UVLand.

07:18Every night I do like hand serum, hand cream before I sleep, and cuticle oil.

07:35You're a dancer, come on!

07:36Can't do it!

07:38What is the highlight of your year so far?

07:41The highlight of this year has just been like...

07:45I feel like going to cities and like countries that we haven't been before.

07:49Like we got to do a whole Latin America tour for Lollapalooza.

07:52We also got to go to Coachella.

07:55Being able to play Coachella was like absolutely like insane.

07:58It was like one of our like goals that we really wanted to achieve as Cat's Eye.

08:02So being able to do it so early was so insane.

08:06Grammys was really cool.

08:08There's so many that I can't really choose.

08:09When we got to do that Lollapalooza festival tour, and the crowd of a festival and the crowd of our

08:15own concert is so different.

08:16Yeah.

08:17At a festival, it's a mix of people that don't know us, people that know us but have never seen

08:21us.

08:22Also like we got to like go and see other artists.

08:24Yes.

08:24It was so nice.

08:26It was as if we were touring with other artists.

08:29Yeah, exactly.

08:30It's so cool.

08:31It was so inspiring.

08:32And also I feel like we made an effort to like go out into the city.

08:37Yes.

08:37That we were in and like with the little time we had like we tried to also like live.

08:42Even the Grammys.

08:44Like not just the Grammys event itself but Grammy week.

08:47Yeah, that was so cool.

08:48There were so many of the same artists that were with us throughout that entire week.

08:52Like every single event we went to, every single party.

08:54Like we had the same crowd with us going through the same thing.

08:57So it was really cool.

09:02I think we're all kind of like our zodiac signs.

09:05Yeah.

09:05There's no one like that doesn't really like fit their zodiac signs.

09:09I think Lara's the best to speak on this though.

09:11Yeah, everyone is very much like their sign and also like their entire charts make sense.

09:18She knows my whole chart.

09:19Every time people ask me like what's my big three, I like we'll call Lara.

09:22Yes, and then we have the same moon.

09:24We're both Sagittarius moon.

09:25What does the moon mean again?

09:25Is it like how you think?

09:27Yeah, just like what you are inside and then you're rising is how you present yourself.

09:31I see.

09:33Sophia Scorpia.

09:34So I present myself like you?

09:36You present yourself in like a very like…

09:39I'm Lara Raj.

09:40I say like a very like elegant, very like mysterious kind of but like demeanor.

09:49Sagittarius is really fun, crazy like and like you have that to you as well.

09:53Oh my gosh.

09:54I'm so Yunche Lara right now.

09:55Like it makes sense.

09:57Anyways.

09:59Why'd you laugh?

10:00I laughed.

10:02You had a really big laugh.

10:07You had a really big laugh.

10:09For the first time?

10:11Wait.

10:12Wait, I can say…

10:13Wait, what is it?

10:14Do you think I can say it?

10:14What is it?

10:15No, not here.

10:16Why?

10:16Because I…

10:18I'm Korean.

10:19I did it in Korea.

10:20I think just now because…

10:22Right.

10:22Wait, say what?

10:23No, no, no, no, no.

10:24Just…

10:24Because it's a big thing in Korea.

10:26But it's like…

10:26I don't want to say it.

10:27Was it your first time?

10:28Let's be honest.

10:29Anyways.

10:30Next.

10:30Okay, next.

10:32For the first time.

15:19Wow.

15:24What's your favorite way to relax?

15:25Do you like to go on hiking or anything?

15:28She does not hike.

15:29I go all the time.

15:31Megan does not go on no hikes.

15:33Okay.

15:34But we always try to plan one.

15:36We always plan when it falls through.

15:37It never happens.

15:38Actually there was one time that you went on a hike and I didn't go.

15:42She got mad.

15:43And I got mad.

15:46But I don't hike.

15:47I kind of just like hang out outside and like, not like outside, like just outside,

15:53but like in my backyard or like by the pool or go to the beach.

15:57Like, I don't really like going to like really busy places.

16:00Like, I feel like it's like a lot sometimes.

16:03So I like try to go in nature or just hang out.

16:06Like even at home.

16:08I'm like such a homebody.

16:09But then there's sometimes I like to go and party.

16:11Like, I'm like a very, like, I have two sides to me.

16:14So I'm like either like out or I'm just hanging at home.

16:17I think that's it.

16:18Just like the piercing.

16:20How often do you take time for self-care?

16:24I should take more time for it.

16:26But I do journal a lot every night and every morning I journal.

16:32So I feel like maybe that's kind of my form of self-care.

16:34And I love eating.

16:35Eating makes me really happy.

16:37You journal?

16:38I journal twice a day.

16:40Have you not seen me with my journal every day?

16:41She's kind of inspired me to start journaling.

16:43I've seen her do it all the time.

16:44I journal like everything.

16:46I've always wanted to journal, but I always fail.

16:49But I'm saying like when I force myself to do it, it's not like rest because I'm like stressed.

16:55I need to become better.

16:57Get it on your tour record.

17:00We have a lot of candy, a lot of chips, drinks, energy drinks, coffee, microwave.

17:08Because I always bring factors.

17:11That's a good one.

17:11Packaged meals.

17:12Fridge.

17:13To put my packaged meal.

17:15Salt and vinegar snack.

17:17Maybe on the table.

17:17Oh, that's you?

17:18Yeah, that's me.

17:19That's why we always have a salt and vinegar snack.

17:22Yeah.

17:22I always like look at the chip and I'm like, oh, it's salt and vinegar again.

17:25You don't like salt and vinegar?

17:26It burns my tongue.

17:27I have like a cutting board, ginger, specific candles.

17:31I just have throat coat.

17:32I put throat coat, manuka honey, a speaker, tissues, cause swabs, toothpaste, floss, toothbrush,

17:41massage gun, roller, a lavender oil.

17:45She has all that.

17:46I have everything.

17:47That's why I like, for example, I like put specific things in my rider and then I see Danny stinking

17:51in her bag.

17:52I was like, that's mine.

17:53Actually, false.

17:54Don't accuse me of something.

17:55No, you did.

17:56You put my little candle.

17:57It was my specific candle.

17:57Because I thought it was mine.

17:59Because me and her, we both put dip tiki.

18:02No, but the specific scent.

18:03That's why I knew it was mine.

18:05Cause it was.

18:06Well, anyways, I put candles too.

18:08You did?

18:09Yeah, I put candles.

18:10I put candles.

18:30Cause for some reason, I don't know.

18:32I just really like them.

18:33I say Reese's.

18:34I know that's wrong.

18:35Why Reese's?

18:36Because I grew up saying it like that.

18:38But it's apostrophe S, isn't it?

18:40I know, but I acknowledge that it's wrong and I think that's what matters.

18:44But I say Reese's because I've always said it like that.

18:48Yeah, cause I've always said it like that.

18:50You freak Reese's?

18:51No, but.

18:51Because isn't it made by someone named Reese, so it's like Reese's.

18:56Yeah, cause it's an apostrophe S.

18:58It's Reese's.

18:59It's Reese's.

18:59It's an apostrophe S.

19:00Guys, I know it's wrong.

19:02I know that.

19:03Okay?

19:04I took accountability, but I've said it since I was like five.

19:07Okay.

19:08So I will forever say it like that.

19:10Alright, alright.
