Opi Teenage Dream Nail Polish Review
To mark the occasion, the brand has rolled out the red carpet for its new "Hollywood collection", a range of 12 colours in reds, pinks, blues, lemons and more.
You'll probably know the brand for its super rich, long-lasting and chip-resistant formulas and fun shade names, but its background it also fascinating.
OPI founder Suzi Weiss-Fischmann was born in Hungary in 1956 during the Hungarian Revolution. Her mother Magda survived Auschwitz and her father Laszlo was on the Russian front in a forced labour camp.

Weiss-Fischmann's family moved to Israel before going to New York in 1969 and it was here Suzi cultivated her instinct for colour and style in the garment industry of New York City.
She moved to LA in 1981 and started OPI (Ondontorium Products Inc) with her brother-in-law George Schaeffer. The company originally manufactured dental products and supplies, but when they noticed Hollywood nail technicians were buying dental acrylics to make their own nail extensions, they realised they could make a superior acrylic product, called OPI. And the brand was born.
With all of this history and its cult status in the nail world, we've rounded up the brand's best-selling shades to celebrate its 40th anniversary. We've also got all the details you need on OPI's latest Hollywood collection, so you can give your nails the lockdown TLC they deserve.

While the brand is equally as known for its bright and dark shades, sometimes all you want is a natural, easy-to-wear colour, and this is just the ticket.
It's a versatile colour that will go with anything and looks simple yet chic, we totally get why it's on this list.
Opi Classic Nail Polish, Long Lasting Luxury Nail Varnish, Red Shades
And we know this colour is popular with actors, including Kerry Washington (Little Fires Everywhere) who told Allure magazine that she’s been wearing the shade since the Nineties.
The brand has included a shade in its new Hollywood collection called “I’m really an actress” which a lovely nod to this popular shade and another name that’s bound to become a classic.
This is what we’d call an absolutely classic red. It’s a bright shade, with a subtle shine, and will make any outfit pop. We'd pair this with an all-black ensemble to really let the colour do the talking.

If you’re wearing a brighter shade like this, or one of the darker colours, you may want to prep your nails first so you’ve got a smooth surface to work on. OPI has a few base coats to get you started.
While the classic reds and pinky nudes have unsurprisingly made the best-selling cut, there's also some more unusual shades in the mix too. As the name of this one suggests, it the brand's take on the dreamy pale shades of Italian ice cream.
OPI describes it as a “deliciously sweet and icy-cool, pastel blue” and we think it's the perfect shade to buy for spring. We’d pair it with a floral dress or white tee and jeans for sunshine vibes.
Opi Gelcolor 15ml
These colours are reviewed every year, and the most popular ones remain. As with all the OPI nail lacquers, this one comes with the "pro-wide" brush to help you get an even distribution and to prevent streaks.
Nails don’t get much more vibrant than this. "Exotic birds do not tweet" is part of OPI’s Fiji spring/summer 2017 collection, and is the one to wear if you want to get those hands noticed.
It’s a seriously radiant yellow, inspired, like the rest of the collection, by the flora and fauna of the island of Fiji.

Other shades in the range include "living on the bula-vard", a warm orange, “super-trop-i-cal-i-fiji-istic", a bright sea blue and "coconuts over OPI", a warm taupe.
It’s not actually black though, as one reviewer on the OPI website notes: “It's vibrant plum purple with a slight shimmer” which can be seen under the lights.
This is the one to pick if you’re looking to do a French manicure, as the ultra white colour will give your nails healthy looking tips.

You can use it with one of the brand’s pale pink tones, or if you're looking for something a little different, try more of a yellow hue, “one chic chick".
If you love some of the classic OPI shades, you'll definitely want to check out the brand's new birthday collection. There are 12 colours here, that OPI says will deliver "vintage glamour with an undated twist".

I have been searching for the perfect dusty pink. I am very very pale, so many colours look darker on me, but this is THE ONE. I love it. Opaque in two coats and nicely shiny if you’re in a rush and skip top coat.
