Due out soon this month are the first 30 shades of OPI’s latest offering Infinite Shine. This is OPI’s foray into the extended wear polish market – the next gen polish product that wears like a gel, and removes like a regular lacquer. Think CND’s Vinylux line – which was the first to market, though this new line uses a three-step system with base and top coat. “Prime. Lacquer. Gloss.”
Unlike consumer releases in the recent long-wear market such as Revlon’s Gel Envy and Sally Hansen’s Miracle Shine Gel, Infinite Shine is part of the OPI Professional product line.

INFINITE SHINE in summary:
• 3-step system – Prime (base), Lacquer (colour), Gloss (shiny top coat).
• No LED or UV light is needed
• Claims 7-10 days flawless wear
• Shine lasts until you remove it

I don’t tend to have wear problems with my polish unless I am being unusually rough on my hands, but I can see Infinite Shine being a great option for those who are, or who don’t want the maintenance of gels application and removal.
