COLOR: RETROGRADE

THIS LISTING IS FOR A SINGLE POT OF GEL.

Blame it on Retrograde.

Meet Retrograde, a captivating bronze-colored liner gel with color-shifting chameleon flakes that transition between bronze, gold, and red. Part of our Futurista Collection, this multidimensional beauty combines magnetic cat-eye pigment, flash-reflective glitter, and chameleon flakes in one extraordinary HEMA & TPO Free formula.

When activated with a magnet, the cat-eye pigment and chameleon flakes move together, creating mesmerizing ribbons of shifting color and light. Built-in flash-reflective particles add an extra burst of brilliance under direct light and camera flash.

Perfect for delicate details, celestial swirls, dramatic accents, and layered designs, Retrograde combines warm metallic elegance with a touch of retro-space-age glamour that's anything but ordinary.

How to Use

  1. Apply: Using a liner brush, apply over your prepared and cured gel base or color.

  2. Magnetize: Before curing, use a cat-eye magnet to manipulate the magnetic pigments and chameleon flakes into your desired design.

  3. Cure: Cure under an LED/UV lamp for 60 seconds.

  4. Layer: Apply additional layers for richer color and added dimension, magnetizing and curing each layer separately.

  5. Seal: Finish with your favorite gel top coat and cure according to its instructions. Top coat is required.
