OPI Infinite Shine is a 3-step long wear nail polish system that promises up to 11 days of wear.

Depending on the lifestyle you lead, your nail chemistry, and each formula’s special blend, you can get up to this amount of wear time from this line.

To maximize your wear time with the Infinite Shine colors, called “Infinite Shine 2”:

2 - Next, select a lighter nail color, glitter formula or both.

With lighter nail colors and glitters, they reflect light off and away from the nail bed. This makes it more difficult to see and fixate on minor tip wear, chips and cracks.

3 - Properly clean, dry, and buff your nails for a manicure, see: How To Prep Your Nails For A Manicure.

4 - Diligently follow manicure maintenance best practices: don’t submerge your nails in water for extended periods of time and don’t use your nails as tools.

On average, through our many trials, we’ve found you can wear Infinite Shine for about a week before switching out colors.

This is longer than you can get from many nail polishes on the market today. Many polishes we’ve tested last less than 24 hours, where the good ones may even last about 3-4 days.

The Infinite Shine line, as a whole, with a week’s wear being our average timeline, really does outperform a lot of the other lacquers available in the current market.

So today we’re going to show you three different Infinite Shine colors, all in 2 coats:

All in all, out of the majority of Infinite Shines we’ve tested, these formulas do provide a longer wear time even when compared to OPI’s own standard formula.

You could easily apply on a Sunday night and it would be good for you until Friday at 5, perhaps even through the weekend, too.
