C09 Pompeii Purple gives you a clear pink and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Pink sits close to most natural nail beds, so regrowth shows up slowly.
What you get in the bottle
- A brush that fixes your line: pressure on the Intelli-Brush thins the gel, releasing it lets the formula pull itself back into an even edge.
- Speed on the clock: 30 seconds per layer under the Star Light lamp adds up over a full set of ten.
- Shine that lasts the set: OPI C09 Pompeii Purple reads glass-like once cured, and holds it for roughly three weeks.
- Formula disclosure: vegan, with no HEMA and no TPO, which is the first question sensitive clients ask.

Where this shade gets booked

Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between OPI C09 Pompeii Purple 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. Most reorders are the plain duo, because the base and top coat outlast any single colour. The OPI C09 Pompeii Purple 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 C09 Pompeii Purple 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 C09 Pompeii Purple is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the whole gel and lacquer category and OPI Intelli-Gel combo sets.
