Cassiopeia A

Cassiopeia A explodes with electric blue magnetic pigment that shifts to purple at extreme angles. Beneath the magnetic glow, scattered holo and orange shimmer sparkle against a black jelly base. Inspired by infrared imagery of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A, this shade captures the contrast between searing light and deep space.

Eye-catching in both velvet and cat eye effects.

Full coverage in 2-3 coats.

Polishes should be stored in a cool and dark area. Shake well before use.

Cassiopeia A is a supernova remnant in the constellation Cassiopeia, located approximately 11,000 light years from Earth. The light from this supernova likely reached Earth in the mid- to late-1600s.
The progenitor star ended its life in a spectacular explosion called a supernova, launching material into the surrounding space. The expanding cloud of material emits X-rays and infrared radiation, which we see in this image. This shell of gas is approximately 10 light years across, has a temperature of 54 million degrees Fahrenheit, and is expanding at about 4,000 km/s.
