Pro Tips: 51 New Shades in OPI Powder Perfection

TIP TWO: SET THAT COLOR

Before the base coat dries, dip each nail at a 45-degree angle into Powder Perfection Clear Set Powder. This seals in powder to avoid impacting the color during filling. The leftover powder can contribute to the hardening of the base coat, leading to a longer, stronger manicure.

TIP THREE: BE PATIENT

Wet Powder Perfection Step 2 Activator on the nail will harden your top coat brush. Activator is already on hand to accelerate the curing of the base coat and powders, so wait 1-2 minutes for it to dry.
TIP FOUR: DON’T FORGET TO SEAL

TIP FOUR: DON’T FORGET TO SEAL

Apply Powder Perfection Step 2 Activator generously and cap the free edge making sure you cover the very tip of the nail. This way you seal the whole nail as well as the tip to create a good layer on the nail surface.
TIP FIVE: TOP IT OFF

TIP FIVE: TOP IT OFF

Be careful, overworking the Powder Perfection Top Coat can result in a cloudy finish. So we recommend precision, for your first coat use 2-3 quick brush strokes to seal the manicure before very carefully applying a second coat.
TIP SIX: DIP. TAP. PERFECT

TIP SIX: DIP. TAP. PERFECT

Make sure you perfect the shape and contour of the nails, as broken highlights can result in a less shiny-looking nail. Finish with OPI Pro Spa Cuticle Oil on your client’s cuticles.
