A60 Don't Bossa Nova Me Around gives you a warm nude and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Nude shades read differently on each skin tone, so swatch on the client before the full set. It sits in the winter gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Self-correcting application: OPI built Intelli-Gel around a responsive gel network that settles itself after every stroke, so a slightly heavy hand does not end in a flooded sidewall.
- Thirty-second cure: each layer of OPI A60 Don't Bossa Nova Me Around sets in 30 seconds under the OPI Star Light lamp, which takes real minutes out of a full set.
- Wear a client notices: about three weeks of glass-like shine before the colour needs a fill.
- Made for sensitive clients: no HEMA, no TPO, and no animal-derived ingredients in the formula.

Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between OPI A60 Don't Bossa Nova Me Around 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. Lacquer Only is the air-dry lacquer on its own, no lamp needed. Intelli-Gel + Base Top Gel is the Intelli-Gel bottle bundled with the Super Base and top coat. Dipping Powder is the matching dip powder for a dip service in the same shade. Dip Powder & Lacquer is the dip powder with the matching lacquer. Most reorders are the plain duo, because the base and top coat outlast any single colour. The OPI A60 Don't Bossa Nova Me Around 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 A60 Don't Bossa Nova Me Around 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 A60 Don't Bossa Nova Me Around is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the winter gel lacquer line-up and OPI Intelli-Gel combo sets.
