Actual colour appearance may vary with lighting, screen settings, application thickness and the display device.

Professional OPI GelColor Formula

OPI GelColor is a professional soak-off gel nail polish system designed for salon manicures. Unlike conventional air-drying nail lacquer, gel polish requires curing under a compatible LED or UV lamp to set the product.

The GCF88 shade is part of OPI’s Fiji collection and is offered by professional retailers in a 0.5 fl oz / 15 ml bottle. Retailer product information describes its creamy blue colour, glossy finish and long-wearing gel application. Wear claims vary between product generations and retailer descriptions, so follow the directions and claims applicable to the exact bottle supplied.

How to Apply OPI GelColor Suzi Without A Paddle

For a professional gel manicure, use compatible OPI products and follow the current instructions supplied with the product and lamp.

1. Prepare the natural nails: Shape the nails, gently prepare the nail surface and push back the cuticles according to professional nail preparation practices.

3. Prepare the product: Shake the gel polish and compatible system products according to their instructions to distribute pigments evenly.
4. Apply nail preparation products: Use compatible preparation products, such as OPI Bond-Aid, if specified by the system instructions.
