OPI EXTENSION SYSTEM

OPI GELevate 4-In-1 Builder Gel — HEMA-Free Overlay System

GELevate 4-In-1 Builder Gel is the centerpiece of the OPI extension system, powered by OPI Intelli-Builder Technology™. The formula is HEMA-free, TPO-free, and vegan with full soak-off removal — 21 days of flawless wear, comfortable lightweight feel, minimal heat spike, easy filing, complete cure in 30 seconds under the OPI Star Light Gel Lamp 3.0 (also at DTK).

The 7-shade collection covers every overlay use case: BIB 000 OPI'm Flawless (clear builder for natural-look overlays) plus six buildable nudes — BIB 001 For the Fill of It, BIB 002 Nude Sculpture, BIB 003 Fill My Espresso, BIB 004 Pink Over-Slay, BIB 005 4get Me Not, BIB 006 Blank Canvas. Use as a builder for overlays, an apex sculptor, or a base for fills — one bottle, multiple use cases. Also available as the complete 7-color set.

OPI Intelli-Gel Base + Top Coat System

• Super Base (GC001) — HEMA-free, soak-off-compatible foundation that grips GelColor polish and protects natural nail from staining. Cures 30 sec under Star Light Lamp.
• Super Gloss Top Coat (GC003) — the shiniest OPI top coat ever. Locks in color, scratch-resistant. IPA wipe required after cure.
• Super Matte Top Coat (GC004) — transforms any GelColor into a matte/satin finish. Scratch-resistant.
• Super Gloss No-Wipe Top Coat (GC005) — high-shine, no IPA wipe required. Ideal for chrome powder, nail art, and any service where wipe-free finish keeps the design intact.

Powder Perfection Dip Powder + Liquid Combos

For home studios offering dip services, DTK stocks OPI Powder Perfection dip powder paired with matching liquid combos, including the OPIcons Spring 2026 collection as ready-to-run sets — S061 OPI'm a Bubble Bunny through S072 Big Apple Energy plus the full 12-color dip powder set.
