With New York City's holiday party season getting into full swing, there’s simply no time for chipped manicures and pedicures. Thankfully, with the OPI Soak Off, No-Chip Gel Manicure and Pedicure, your nail polish won’t chip for a whole two weeks - it’s what every glamorous Manhattan party girl has been waiting for!

This new, entirely natural yet extremely resilient nail care gel won’t chip, crack or break for a full 14 days– regardless of how many Thanksgiving dishes you prepare or how many Christmas parties you attend! It’s one of the most luxurious treatments available in New York City and is surprisingly inexpensive. For example, the award-winning Dyanna Spa in Manhattan, voted Best Nail Salon in New York by Citysearch is offering the treatment starting from as little as $25.00. This means not only could you save a fortune on manicures and pedicures but you’ll also save time and effort by avoiding all those top-up trips to the salon.

Applied from a small pot with a brush similar to a paint brush, OPI gel color is a salon-only professional-use product that must be applied in conjunction with a UV lamp for proper product setting. There are 34 colors to choose from, so you'll never have to sacrifice style for convenience. It has a high shine finish which will last throughout the two weeks with zero chipping or peeling. Most salons will offer the treatment in OPI’s prettiest and most popular shades. Then, once you’re ready to remove it, the long-lasting gel polish is formulated to easily soak off with acetone meaning that it’s great for weakened or damaged nails. With this procedure, cuticles are never trimmed but instead are pushed back to clean the nail, as cutting the cuticles is damaging in this specific procedure.

According to the Chicago Tribune advantages of the OPI No Chip Manicure are:

1. Polish dries quickly and thoroughly. When you pull your hand out of the lamp you can't dent it or ruin it. The technician applies a base coat, color and top coat, with UV curing in between. Application takes about 30 minutes start to finish. It's instantly 100 percent dry, which is quite amazing.

2. It lasts two weeks. It can actually last longer than that, but after 2 weeks you can see the nail growth.

3. It still gleams on Day 14. The shine factor with this is quite unbelievable.

Important things to note, the OPI gel polish needs to be removed at the salon by applying 99 percent acetone on the nail for 10 minutes. This may weaken the nail, so conditioning of the nail afterwards is important.
