The essential Step 2 activator for a polished OPI Powder Perfection dip service.
✦ Made for the Dip Powder Ritual
OPI DIPPING POWDER ACTIVADOR 0.5 FL. OZ. #2 is the Step 2 Activator in the OPI Powder Perfection dipping powder system. Applied after the powder layers are built, it helps harden the dip application so the nail can be shaped, refined, and finished with Powder Perfection Top Coat as directed by the system.
With a brush-on bottle, color-coded cap, and water-like viscosity, this activator is designed for clean, precise application throughout a professional dip service. The formula air-dries, so no UV or LED lamp is required for this step.
