CND Retention Sculpting Liquid – 32oz

EMA Liquid Monomer · CND Retention Sculpting Liquid 32 oz — The 32 oz value size of CND”s keratin-bonding sculpting liquid — pro-grade EMA monomer for high-volume salons committed to the Retention+ system.

What It Does

CND Retention+ Sculpting Liquid 32 oz is a professional Ethyl Methacrylate (EMA) acrylic monomer with cross-linking polymer chemistry. Mixed with CND acrylic powder, it creates a strong, durable acrylic bead that chemically bonds with the keratin in the natural nail plate. EMA is the salon-safe industry standard — MMA is banned for salon use because it bonds too aggressively to the natural nail.

Why Pros Choose This

Cross-linking keratin-bonding chemistry: built-in retention, not just prep-dependent

Pure EMA: MMA-free and salon-compliant

32 oz value size lowers per-ounce cost for active salons

Self-leveling, predictable set time for smooth sculpting

How to Use

Dip acrylic brush into monomer, then into CND or other professional powder to form a bead (~1.5:1 liquid to powder)

Place bead on prepped nail and shape within 30–60 seconds

Allow bead to air-cure fully before filing

Best For

High-volume salons running CND Retention+ daily, multi-tech operations.
