(Bee)FFR (S034) is a butter yellow carrying a high-shine finish. Yellow pigment is naturally sheer, so plan on a third coat for full coverage. It is carried in the fall gel lacquer line-up at ND.
Why techs keep reordering this one
- 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.

If the set lifts early
Early lifting is almost always prep rather than the colour, and that holds for OPI S034 (Bee)FFR 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 S034 (Bee)FFR is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the fall gel lacquer line-up and OPI dip and lacquer pairs.
