Yesterday, I blogged about the cool new OPI Glitter Off Base Coat that allows you to easily and quickly peel off even the most stubborn glitter from your nails.
Today, I have another cool press release to share. It’s all about the OPI Sheer Tints available in March.
As usual, OPI is a trailblazer because I haven’t seen anything like this in the mainstream, and I’m very excited to see what artistic looks people can come up with.
OPI Sheer Tints are pigmented top coats that you can use to layer over any nail polish or build up to achieve unique effects! I’m very curious about these, and you could probably create really neat stained-glass designs plus ombres!
Below is the official press release sent to me by PR:
“A touch of color can change everything!”
OPI Launches NEW Color Tinted Top Coats
This spring OPI takes nail color to the next level with revolutionary Sheer Tints; the brand’s first-ever, pigmented top coats. Sheer Tints by OPI offers a fresh take on traditional top coats with the introduction of 4 new vivid hues in Blue, Pink, Yellow and Purple. An infusion of transparent color with high shine, these top coats can be worn alone, with a base coat for a playful sheer or layered over any shade to create an alternate finish for a progressive nail look.
“Nail color is all about self-expression; apply Sheer Tints over your favorite OPI Nail Lacquer to achieve your dream shade, accent glitters and darks or transform crèmes and shimmers,” explains Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Co-Founder & Executive VP. “Make a statement by creating an ombre design that is on-trend then add several coats to create dimension.”
Sheer Tints by OPI includes the following hues:
I’m Never Amberrassed
Liquid amber morphs into a veneer of yellow tint that is anything but bashful.
Be Magentale with Me
Give your nails the sweet treatment with this sheer pink tint.
Don’t Violet Me Down
You can count on this crystal sheer amethyst.
I Can Teal You Like Me
It’s obvious you’re head over teal in love with this sheer blue.
Sheer Tints features OPI’s exclusive ProWide™ Brush the ultimate in application. Sheer Tints will be available March 2014, at Professional Salons and Spas for $10.95 CAN suggested retail.

Which of the OPI Sheer Tints appeals to you the most? How would you wear the OPI Sheer Tints?
I’m definitely curious about these. Can’t wait to see swatches. Plus like you said, I’d love to see a stained glass mani.

Hey Jenni!
It will also be neat to see how the colours combine to create new shades!
Holy smokes! Those look amazing! Can’t wait for them to go on sale 😀
Hey Karen!
So many awesome polishes are coming out in such a short time!
I’m beyond curious about these. How unusual. Can’t wait to see what these look like.
Hey Melissa!
It’s amazing how polish companies constantly come out with new things to hold our interest (aka addiction)! 😉
I just got the Be Magentale with Me in my February Birchbox and it was a little disappointing =( I could BARELY see the pink tint and I think I only “saw” it because I wanted it to be there so bad ha ha. I would love to see the other colors though!

Hey Britnee!
Sorry to hear that you were disappointed. I hope my experience with them isn’t a letdown!
These look interesting. I think I would try them over black or white nail polish. I’d probably try the purple one over white, and the pink one over black.
Hey Tanya!
That’s a really good idea!
So the angle they’re promoting with is certainly different, but I’m really curious how these differ from, say, Zoya Sheer Jelly Glosses. From their product description, “The jelly gloss formula can be worn alone or layered to create an endless variety of custom colors.” Will definitely stay tuned!
Hey Elisa!
I’m curious about how pigmented the sheer wash is. It’ll be fun to build them up!
