This is OPI's take on cobalt blue: S033 Dream Come Blue, with a glossy finish. Blue is high contrast against most skin tones, so a clean cuticle line matters.
What this shade does on the nail
- A formula techs already know: GelColor has run in salons since 2011, which means no relearning the application on a busy day.
- Gel and lacquer that agree: both bottles are mixed to the same shade so the take-home matches the set.
- Three weeks between fills: with proper prep and a capped free edge the colour holds for about three weeks.
- No animal-derived ingredients: the formula is vegan across the OPI range.

- Finish: cuticle oil and a final shape check.

- Pairing work: it sits next to a silver chrome or a white swirl.
- Bold accent nails, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
If the set lifts early
Early lifting is almost always prep rather than the colour, and that holds for OPI S033 Dream Come Blue as much as any shade on the wall. Make sure the shine is fully off the plate, the cuticle is pushed back and the surface is dehydrated before the base goes on. Keep every layer thin and cap the free edge on the base, both colour coats and the top. A thick colour coat is the most common cause of a set that peels at the stress point in week two.
OPI S033 Dream Come Blue is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the whole gel and lacquer category and OPI dip and lacquer pairs.
