F16 Tickle My France-y 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. It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
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 F16 Tickle My France-y 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.

Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between OPI F16 Tickle My France-y 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. Gel & Lacquer + Dipping Powder is gel, lacquer and dip powder together, so one shade covers all three services. Most reorders are the plain duo, because the base and top coat outlast any single colour. The OPI F16 Tickle My France-y bundles are worth it the first time the shade enters the wall, not on the third reorder.
If the set lifts early
Early lifting is almost always prep rather than the colour, and that holds for OPI F16 Tickle My France-y 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 F16 Tickle My France-y is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the spring gel lacquer line-up and OPI Intelli-Gel combo sets.
