Ochre The Moon (F005) is a warm gold carrying a high-shine finish. Gold flake catches light unevenly on a thick coat, so build it in thin layers.
What you get in the bottle
- Salon-standard formula: OPI GelColor has been the soak-off standard in salons since 2011, so techs already know how it behaves.
- Matched pair: the gel and the air-dry lacquer are mixed to the same shade, so a client can leave with the bottle.
- Three weeks of wear: a full OPI gel service holds its colour for about three weeks before a fill.
- Vegan formula: OPI formulas carry no animal-derived ingredients.
- Gloss that holds: the cured finish stays high-shine for the life of the set as long as the top coat caps the free edge.

Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between OPI F005 Ochre The Moon in different formats. Gel Polish & Lacquer is the matched gel and lacquer pair, so the client can take the polish home in the same shade. Gel Polish Only is the gel bottle on its own, for salons that only run gel services. Nail Lacquer Only is the air-dry lacquer on its own, no lamp needed. Most reorders are the plain duo, because the base and top coat outlast any single colour. The OPI F005 Ochre The Moon bundles are worth it the first time the shade enters the wall, not on the third reorder.
Matching this shade across services
The point of a duo is that the client can leave with a bottle that matches the set. OPI F005 Ochre The Moon is mixed as a pair, so the air-dry lacquer reads as the same colour as the cured gel under normal light. Where the same code also exists as a dip powder, a salon can run gel, lacquer and dip off one shade code without a second colour match. Check the options on this page to see which formats ND carries for this code.
OPI F005 Ochre The Moon is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the whole gel and lacquer category and OPI Intelli-Gel combo sets.
