OPI Intelli Gel & Lacquer Duo - T75 It's a Boy!

T75 It's a Boy gives you a navy blue and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Blue is high contrast against most skin tones, so a clean cuticle line matters. It sits in the summer gel lacquer line-up at ND.

What you get in the bottle

• Fewer do-overs: the Intelli-Brush thins the formula under gentle pressure and resets when you lift off, so the gel stays where you put it instead of flooding the cuticle.
• Two coats, full colour: Intelli-Gel reaches its true payoff in two coats and cures in 30 seconds under the OPI Star Light lamp.
• Three weeks of wear: a full OPI T75 It's a Boy service holds a glass-like shine for about three weeks before a fill.
• HEMA-free and TPO-free: the formula is vegan and leaves out HEMA and TPO, which matters for clients with a history of gel sensitivity.
• 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.

Specifications

Application steps

1. Shape and clean the plate: file to shape, ease the cuticle back, buff off the shine and wipe the nail.
2. pH step: a single coat of OPI Bond-Aid readies the plate for adhesion.
3. Super Base: one very thin coat, capped at the free edge, cured for 30 seconds.
4. First colour coat: lay OPI T75 It's a Boy on thin and let the brush settle the edge, cure 30 seconds.
5. Second colour coat: this is the coat that brings the shade to its full depth, cure 30 seconds.
6. Top coat: finish with Super Gloss for maximum shine or the No Wipe top coat when chrome or art is going over it, cure 30 seconds.
7. Last check: cuticle oil, then run a finger down each sidewall before the client stands up.

Where this shade gets booked

• Summer sets: blue is high contrast against most skin tones.
• Pairing work: it sits next to a silver chrome or a white swirl.
• Toes, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
• Summer/Winter bookings, which is where ND files this shade.

Which option should you add to the bag

On this page you are choosing between OPI T75 It's a Boy 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. If you already stock base and top coat, the plain OPI T75 It's a Boy duo is the sensible reorder. The bundled options exist for a new station or a second room that has nothing in it yet.

Storing the bottle

Keep OPI T75 It's a Boy upright with the cap tight and out of direct sunlight, because daylight will start curing gel in a half-empty bottle. Wipe the neck before you close it so the cap does not seize. Pigment-heavy and glitter shades settle between services, so roll the bottle between your palms rather than shaking it, which puts bubbles in the first coat and shows up under the lamp.

OPI T75 It's a Boy is stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the summer gel lacquer line-up and OPI dip and lacquer pairs.
