I have been seeing a lot of ads lately for the O.P.I soak off gel manicure. The claims are that you got a shiny chip free manicure that lasts up to two weeks. I love getting my manicures but they never seem to last; if I get 5 days out of a manicure I consider myself lucky. So when I started seeing these ad’s I was really intrigued to see if the manicure delivered as promised. My big concern was that it was significantly pricier than my normal $8 manicure $25 for each manicure but if it lasted two weeks I thought it might be worth the extra $9 that it would cost instead of two normal manicures.
The process was very quick and easy. First they filed my nails and buffed them to a shine. Then they took out a UV light and a special gel like polish which they polished my nails with and then had me put my hand in the UV box. Then the manicurist layered three different sheer gel colors a white and two pinks all O.P.I. and a topcoat. After my hands took many alternating turns in the UV dryer we put Essie’s, Gucci Muchi Pucci on top plus a regular topcoat. It was super shiny and took a very short time to dry. I did it Thursday and it’s now Sunday I’ve cooked, cleaned, done housework, showered a few times, all things that normally make my polish chip and it’s still perfect. So far I highly recommend it if you are hard on your nails or find your manicures don’t last.
I will add a follow up at the end of two weeks to let you all know how it held up for the duration. I should mention that my manicurist told me some customers have had issues with it and if I do, I should come back and she’ll fix it for free. So I will keep you all updated on the progress.
