What you get

Why techs stock it
- Self-correcting formula: the gel thins under brush pressure, then resets when you lift, so it stays where you place it with no chasing or flooding.
- Intelli-Brush: the rounded brush hugs the cuticle and feeds product slowly for controlled coverage.
- 30-second cure: each coat cures in 30 seconds in the OPI Star Light, with up to 3 weeks of wear as a full system.
- Formula: HEMA-free, TPO-free and vegan, with no animal-derived ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions
What color is OPI S056 Daffodil Duck Walk?+

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 Daffodil Duck Walk 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.
