OPI Nail Lacquer OPI Red creates a smooth, glossy manicure that can be refreshed regularly with classic nail polish application. Used as a complete base coat, colour and top coat system, the polish lasts up to seven days and air-dries without a lamp. The pearlescent finish gives the colour light-reflecting shine and a softer sense of depth.
Nitrocellulose (INCI: Nitrocellulose) is a film-forming ingredient that helps create a continuous polish layer on the nail. The formula also contains ethyl acetate and butyl acetate. The Pro-Wide brush helps distribute the product evenly across the nail surface.
Suitable for colouring natural nails and regularly changing your manicure shade. The air-drying coating lets you create a manicure without curing in a lamp.
A classic red shade gives this manicure its colour accent. OPI Nail Lacquer OPI Red is a classic nail polish applied in thin coats and sealed with top coat. It air-dries without a UV or LED lamp.
The INCI list includes Ethyl Acetate, Butyl Acetate and Nitrocellulose. The full ingredient list and listed colourants appear at the end of the description.
Before colour application, prepare clean natural nails and a base layer. On short nails, pay particular attention to capping the free edge before sweeping the brush over the whole surface.
Prepare and cleanse natural nails. Apply one coat of OPI Natural Nail Base Coat. Shake the colour bottle and apply two thin coats. Finish with OPI Top Coat and allow the coating to air-dry.
For even application, use three brush strokes: one down the centre of the nail, then one along each side. Apply two thin coats of colour and seal them with your chosen OPI top coat. If polish gets onto the skin, tidy the outline with a corrector pen or a suitable clean-up brush.
OPI Red shows how much a single colour can shape a manicure. This version focuses on a classic red shade. Alongside pastels and bright accents, OPI's colour palette has room for subtle and dark tones, allowing you to choose a polish to suit the mood of your intended manicure.
Nail Lacquer is OPI's classic nail polish formula. Its routine follows a familiar sequence: base coat first, then your chosen colour, and finally top coat. Colour gives nails their intended look, while the base and finishing layer complete the manicure system. The polish air-dries, so no UV or LED lamp is needed.
This approach makes changing colour a regular part of your manicure routine. When you want a different mood, remove the coating with nail polish remover and choose another shade. The 15 ml bottle retains the classic polish format, with colour choice and careful application at its heart.
No. Nail Lacquer is a classic nail polish that air-dries.
