OPI Gelcolor soak-off gel polish (released in October 2011) applies just like traditional nail polish, but gives you a super shiny finish that lasts up to two weeks. You can simply apply the gel like regular nail polish and cure it under a UV or LED lamp for the specified period of time.

Why choose OPI GelColor?

OPI Gelcolor is produced by the largest manufacturer of nail products in the world. OPI's Gelcolor will last for 2 weeks and is made specifically to withstand the normal wear and tear from daily activities. Their formula does not damage natural nails and will help keep your nails strong and healthy.

How long does it take for OPI GelColor to cure?

The curing times for Gelcolor gel polish depend on the type of lamp you are using. For LED Lamps, Gelcolor will take 20-30 seconds to cure. However, with a UV Lamp, it will take 2-3 minutes to cure. Check out the latest LED lamp for faster curing!

How do I use OPI GelColor polish?

The GelColor application process is very similar to other soak-off gel polishes... This is how you do it:

Preparation

Step 1. Prepare the nail by using a cuticle pusher tool to push back the cuticles for a clean application of gel

Step 2. Shape your nails to your desired style with a natural nail filer (150 grit or higher)

Step 3. Prepare the natural nail by gently removing the shine using a buffer; lightly buff it to rough up the nail beds

Step 4. Remove the oils and dust from your nail by using a nail cleanser

OPI Gelcolor Application

Step 5. (Roll the GelColor bottle in your hands to mix the contents) Apply a thin, even layer of GelColor Base Coat onto your nail.

Step 6. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 10 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 1 minute. The top coat will remain tacky/sticky, but this is normal for any soak-off gel polish.

Step 7. (Roll the GelColor bottle in your hands to mix the contents) Apply a thin, even layer of GelColor Color coat to your nail. Don't forget to cap the nail edges to create a seal. Make sure you remove any GelColor from the skin prior to curing.

Step 8. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 20 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 2 minutes.

Step 9. Apply a second coat of GelColor color to the nail.

Step 10. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 20 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 2 minutes.

Step 11. Apply a thin, even layer of Gelcolor Top Coat onto your nail. The top coat creates a high shine while protecting the gel layers below it from damage. Don't forget to cap the nail edges to create a seal.

Step 12. Place your hand in an LED Lamp and cure for 20 seconds or UV Lamp and cure for 2 minutes.

Step 13. Use a liberal amount of alcohol (99%) or gel cleanser with a lint-free pad to remove the tacky/sticky residue from your nail.
