FAQs

How long does OPI Nail Polish typically last?

With proper application and a good top coat, OPI Nail Polish can last 5-7 days on fingernails and over a week on toenails before significant chipping occurs.

Is this a gel polish or regular lacquer?

This is a regular nail lacquer, not a gel polish. It requires a standard top coat and is removed with nail polish remover.

How do I remove the shimmering glitter?

Soak a cotton ball with nail polish remover, place it on the nail for a few minutes to soften the polish, then wipe away. For stubborn glitter, use a glitter-specific remover or a foil-wrap method.

Can this polish be used with gel top coats?

It is generally not recommended to mix regular lacquer with gel top coats, as they cure differently and may not adhere properly or create the desired finish.

Does OPI test on animals?

OPI is committed to not testing on animals. They do not sell their products in mainland China, where animal testing may be required.

What is the best way to store this nail polish?

Store the bottle upright in a cool, dark, dry place, away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use.

Troubleshooting

Polish is too thick or streaky.

Ensure the bottle is not over-shaken. If polish has thickened over time, consider using a nail polish thinner (follow product instructions carefully). Apply thin, even coats and allow each to dry slightly before the next.

Color doesn't look like the swatch.

Color appearance can vary based on lighting and nail base. Ensure proper application technique and sufficient coats. Swatches may also be enhanced for display.

Polish chips quickly.

Ensure nails are properly prepped (clean, dry, no oils). Use a quality base coat and a robust top coat, reapplying the top coat every 2-3 days for extended wear.

Air bubbles in the polish.

Avoid shaking the bottle vigorously. Instead, roll it between your palms. Ensure you are applying thin coats and allowing adequate drying time between applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Application:

  1. Ensure nails are clean, dry, and free of oils. Apply a base coat to protect your natural nail and improve polish adhesion.
  2. Shake the bottle gently to mix the color and shimmer. Avoid vigorous shaking, which can create air bubbles.
  3. Apply the first thin coat of OPI Nail Polish - Blue, using smooth, even strokes. Start from the cuticle and brush towards the tip.
  4. Allow the first coat to dry for at least 1-2 minutes before applying the second coat for full opacity.
  5. Apply a top coat to seal the color, add shine, and enhance durability.

Compatibility:

This nail polish is compatible with most standard base coats and top coats. It is designed for use on natural nails.

Care:

  • Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Keep the cap tightly closed when not in use to prevent the polish from drying out.
  • Clean the bottle neck and brush with nail polish remover if product buildup occurs.
