What you get
- 1 x OPI F038 Suzi Take a Vow Intelli-Gel gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured in a lamp
- 1 x OPI F038 Suzi Take a Vow nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Stays put: Intelli-Gel thins under the brush and self-corrects once pressure releases, so strokes level out instead of running into the cuticle.
- Controlled pick-up: the Intelli-Brush has a rounded edge for the cuticle line and releases gel gradually.
- Up to 3 weeks of wear: base, two color coats and top each cure in 30 seconds in the OPI Star Light.
- HEMA-free, TPO-free and vegan: made without added HEMA and with no animal-derived ingredients.
- No lamp needed: the lacquer air-dries, with up to 7 days of wear on the OPI 3-step system.

What color is OPI F038 Suzi Take a Vow?+
OPI F038 Suzi Take a Vow is a soft nude crème. OPI describes it this way: Say “I do” to a light peach shade inspired by “Baby Take a Vow.”.
How long do I cure each coat?+
Each coat of base, color and top cures in 30 seconds in the OPI Star Light. Keep coats thin and cap the free edge so the gel cures all the way through.
Is Suzi Take a Vow HEMA-free?+
Yes. OPI Intelli-Gel shades are formulated without added HEMA, and the formula is TPO-free and vegan. Other acrylates are still in the formula, so check the ingredient list if a client has a known sensitivity.
Which top coat do I need?+
Super Gloss Top Coat gives the highest shine and needs an IPA wipe after curing. Super Gloss No Wipe Top Coat skips the wipe, which suits chrome powder and nail art, and is slightly less glossy.
Do the gel and the lacquer share a code?+
Yes. Both bottles carry shade code F038, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure can be booked in the same color.
