What you get
- 1 x OPI S074 Ultra Violet Daze Intelli-Gel gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL)
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.
- Finish: One-color crème, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.
