Magnetic De Orchid - 85 - Professional Gel Polish 15ml

Colour Story & Identity

Romantic, contemporary, intentionally feminine without apology. Magnetic De Orchid takes its conceptual inspiration from the native orchids of Australia's diverse ecosystems, though positioned through a modern lens of warm, dusty rose-mauve sophistication. This is a warm, muted mauve-rose—neither purely pink nor distinctly purple, but positioned at the intersection where both exist with warmth. The colour sits comfortably within the warm pink-burgundy family but pulls distinctly toward mauve through its restrained saturation and subtle purple undertones. What makes this shade distinctive is its contemporary femininity; this is not sugary pink, but rather intelligent rose with depth. The undertones are predominantly warm with secondary cool notes creating subtle complexity. This is the colour of modern femininity reimagined, of romantic sensibility married to sophisticated restraint.

Wear Experience & Styling

Magnetic De Orchid suits contexts where refined femininity reads as intentional rather than expected. Pair it with warm neutrals like cream, taupe, and soft grey, or contrast with jewel tones like emerald and sapphire for stunning visual impact. It works beautifully with rose gold jewellery, pink or copper-toned leather accessories, and warm makeup palettes. Consider this shade for year-round wear, though it finds particular resonance in spring and summer months when lighter, more romantic tones feel seasonally appropriate. For nail art, layer with soft gold accents, geometric patterns in cream or grey, or negative space designs that let the base colour provide emotional impact. Application tip: Magnetic De Orchid's moderate saturation rewards consistent, even application—the self-levelling formula handles the heavy lifting, so focus on smooth coverage for polished sophistication.

Skin Tones

Magnetic De Orchid performs beautifully on light, fair, medium, olive, and tan skin tones, where the warm mauve-rose reads as flatteringly romantic without intensity. The warm undertones create natural harmony, particularly for those with warmer complexions. Deeper skin tones can wear this shade successfully but may find the muted saturation requires careful balance—pair with deeper makeup tones and statement jewellery for maximum impact. The shade rewards intentional styling choices across all complexions.

Best Worn For

Spring gatherings, Mother's Day celebrations, date nights, wedding guest appearances, Easter celebrations, spring brunches, casual weekend wear, professional creative environments, gallery visits, Sunday afternoons, and any occasion where refined femininity feels celebratory.

Pairs With

Combine with a soft cream on alternating nails for a gentle French variation. Pair with a deeper burgundy or plum for monochromatic mauve-rose depth. Layer with rose gold foil for romantic celebration. Works beautifully with a cool grey for contemporary contrast and visual balance.

About the Finish

The cream finish creates a smooth, polished surface that reflects light with subtle warmth and femininity. The nail reads as a refined colour statement rather than shimmering or textured—elegant without theatrical presence. Light travels evenly across the surface, emphasising the warm mauve complexity with understated sophistication.

Colour Type

Magnetic De Orchid is a warm, muted mauve-rose positioned at the sophisticated end of the pink-purple spectrum. The undertones are distinctly warm with secondary cool notes creating subtle depth and complexity. The saturation is deliberately restrained, positioning this as an intelligent alternative to bright or saturated pinks. It reads as contemporary feminine rather than traditionally romantic.
