-
Cyborn Again lays down as a berry pink, finishing with a glossy finish. Pink sits close to most natural nail beds, so regrowth shows up slowly. It is carried in the fall gel lacquer line-up at ND.
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.

Picking the right option on this page
On this page you are choosing between OPI F016 Cyborn Again 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. Dipping Powder is the matching dip powder for a dip service in the same shade. Think about who is buying. A mobile tech carries the OPI F016 Cyborn Again duo and nothing else. A salon with three stations and a dip menu is better served by the combined option.
If the set lifts early
Early lifting is almost always prep rather than the colour, and that holds for OPI F016 Cyborn Again 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 F016 Cyborn Again is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the fall gel lacquer line-up and the OPI lacquer range.
