Pulsar

Green blue to purple to violet 9D chrome magnetic with holo flakes in a dark navy jelly.

Inspiration

The fairies stumbled across an old telescope at a yard sale and became completely obsessed with stargazing, staying up until dawn every night arguing about constellations. When they spotted quasars and pulsars through the lens, Fern declared they absolutely HAD to recreate those swirling cosmic colors in polish form. The problem was finding pigments that could shift and move like actual space phenomena. This led to three weeks of increasingly ridiculous experiments involving everything from blender motors to Fern's old vibrator. Finally, Puck discovered some rare 9D magnetic pigments tucked away in the telescope seller's garage (apparently the old guy was a retired physicist), and suddenly they could create polish that dances and shifts with magnets just like the objects that started their whole obsession.

Application

1. Clean and prep nails
2. Apply base coat and let it dry completely 
3. Apply the first coat of magnetic polish. Don’t worry if you can't magnetize it in time. DFP formulae dry super fast! Let this coat dry.
4. Place your finger in direct contact with the magnet prior to the second coat. Usually on top of the magnet. The second coat softens the first coat so that it can be magnetized. The magnetic effect freezes in place when the polish dries.
5. Apply the second coat while your finger is on the magnet and don’t move for 60 seconds.
6. Apply topcoat and wait 30 seconds. Topcoat can also soften the polish under it, so stay on that magnet until it dries. The polish should be dry enough that the magnetic effect will stay crisp. The longer you let the polish dry before moving your nail, the sharper the magnetic effect.
7. We recommend using a hair dryer on medium heat to speed up dry time because fairies are impatient and there are 10 fingers (usually).

You’ll want a stick magnet for the cat eye effect. We provide one free per customer with the purchase of a magnetic polish. 

We found that horseshoe magnets in the #20-#30 pound pull sizes fit most fingers for the velvet effect. These are widely available. Go for a #30 pound size if you have larger hands.

With both types of magnets, you will want your finger on the magnet for the second coat.
