The new OPI Your Way collection for Spring 2024 features shimmery and glittery sheer glazes designed to layer over highly-pigmented crèmes.
Color highlights include apricot in both crème and glitter sheer finishes (Apricot AF, gLITter), which have recharging vibes and offer an inclusive alternative to traditional pastels. Cyber lime and turquoise crèmes (Get in Lime, First Class Tix) energize body and mind, while trans-seasonal dark brown, rich caramel, creamy tan, and shiny beige (Material Gworl, Spice Up Your Life, Basic Baddie, Bleached Brows) evoke feelings of warmth. Candy tones of shimmery bubblegum pink, sheer lavender glitter, and bright blue crème, (Bubblegum Glaze, Suga Cookie, *Verified*) have a whimsical, playful energy.
OPI Your Way includes 12 new shades — seven crèmes and five effect sheers — matched in GelColor, Nail Lacquer, and Powder Perfection (six select shades), plus nine new shades — six crèmes and three effect sheers — available in Infinite Shine.
Paint it: Choose one crème as your foundation or use multiple to make a French tip or create abstract linework.
Glaze it: Layer any sheer glaze over the crème(s). Use more than one for a truly custom look, like a pearlescent glitter ombre.
Name it: For example, Apricot AF paired with Glazed N’ Amused to create Apricot N’ Amused, an entirely new color and name.
"I’m so excited about the OPI Your Way collection because it epitomizes one of the brand’s long-standing beliefs – color is the ultimate tool for self-expression. To get last year’s milky nail trend – Bubble Bunny – consumers creatively combined Bubble Bath and Funny Bunny to create their perfect hue. This collection expands upon that concept, with shades designed for layering, making each combination as unique as its wearer. And it’s not just the colors that can be remixed; each shade name was designed with simplicity in mind so two names can be combined into one, à la Brangelina.”
— Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Co-Founder and Brand Ambassador
“The collection’s vibrant crème hues act as a foundation for your nails,” added OPI global director of Color Equity Jill Bartoshevich. “Then dazzling, sheer shimmer, pearl, and glitter glazes add a dreamy, mesmerizing touch to the final look. You’ll find the biggest color trends of 2024 in this collection, including apricot in both opaque and glittery sheer finishes, as well as super vivid lime green.”
OPI Your Way shades will be available in GelColor, Nail Lacquer, and Powder Perfection formulas.
