S078 Lime Of My Life gives you a deep green and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Green swings cool or warm depending on the base, so check it against the client's skin.
What you get in the bottle
- Fewer do-overs: the Intelli-Brush thins the formula under gentle pressure and resets when you lift off, so the gel stays where you put it instead of flooding the cuticle.
- Two coats, full colour: Intelli-Gel reaches its true payoff in two coats and cures in 30 seconds under the OPI Star Light lamp.
- Three weeks of wear: a full OPI S078 Lime Of My Life service holds a glass-like shine for about three weeks before a fill.
- HEMA-free and TPO-free: the formula is vegan and leaves out HEMA and TPO, which matters for clients with a history of gel sensitivity.
- 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 S078 Lime Of My Life 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. Intelli-Gel Only is the Intelli-Gel bottle on its own. Nail Lacquer Only is the air-dry lacquer on its own, no lamp needed. Dipping Powder is the matching dip powder for a dip service in the same shade. Gel & Lacquer + Dipping Powder is gel, lacquer and dip powder together, so one shade covers all three services. Intelli-Gel + Base Top Gel is the Intelli-Gel bottle bundled with the Super Base and top coat. If you already stock base and top coat, the plain OPI S078 Lime Of My Life duo is the sensible reorder. The bundled options exist for a new station or a second room that has nothing in it yet.
Matching this shade across services
The point of a duo is that the client can leave with a bottle that matches the set. OPI S078 Lime Of My Life 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 S078 Lime Of My Life is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the whole gel and lacquer category and OPI dip and lacquer pairs.
