Picture this: You’re sitting in your chair at the nail salon, flipping through endless color options, trying to find the perfect shade for your manicure. Unfortunately, the overwhelming abundance of choice (from jelly to popsicle nails, aura nails, and fun, seasonal shades) leaves you paralyzed with indecision. So what do you do? You go for something neutral or a reliable shade you can count on. Branching out seems like a good idea, until you find yourself with a shade of trendy butter yellow that sounds fun in theory but looks horrid in practice. A sheer, peachy pink always does the trick for me unless I’ve done meticulous research and am ready to commit to something outside of my comfort zone. And when I asked the rest of The Everygirl team what their go-to OPI nail polish colors were, they chimed in with the shades that never fail them. Ahead, the OPI nail polish colors our editors wear on repeat.
Funny Bunny
The Funny Bunny hype didn’t just come and go with Hailey Bieber’s chrome nails. This shade has been trusted by our team for years. It’s the perfect milky white that can be worn year-round.
I’m Not Really a Waitress
A shimmering red manicure is never a bad idea. With a pearlescent shimmer finish, this OPI shade is striking and sophisticated.
Baby Take a Vow
This isn’t just another shade of pale pink. It’s a delicate, blushing shade that looks good on various skin tones, making it a team favorite. Sure, it’s technically marketed to brides, but who says you can’t have a bridal-worthy mani anytime you want?
My Chihuahua Bites
This fiery, bright orange-red nail polish will turn heads, whether you’re headed to GNO or hopping on a plane to go OOO. It’s bold and full of energy, making it a fun shade for anyone wanting to make a statement.
Complimentary Wine
This velvet burgundy will make you dream about your Friday night glass of wine. It radiates seduction, energy, and luxury, so it’s no surprise our editors want it on their nails at all times.
Pale to the Chief
OPI describes this shade as “a nail polish so nearly nude, it’s almost scandalous,” and that’s what we love about her. When you just can’t decide what color you want but know you want a clean nail look, this is the shade for you.
Big Apple Red
I think we can all agree that finding the perfect shade of red is way harder than it needs to be. But our editors agree that Big Apple Red is a classic choice that makes you feel ready to take on the world.
Lisbon Wants Moor OPI
From everyday wear to special occasions (one of our editors wore this on her wedding day!), this delicate pastel shade strikes a just-right balance between nude and pink. It’s soft and elegant, making it a trusty option no matter where you’re headed.
Lincoln Park After Dark
This deep, near-black purple shade offers just the right amount of drama. If you’ve never worn it, you’ll be surprised at how well it compliments both your casual and elegant looks.
Put It In Neutral
If you want to look polished and a little bit posh, opt for this blend of soft pink and beige. It gives the perfectly barely-there effect, so our editors who love a clean look wear it on repeat. The best part? It looks just as good with just one coat as it does with three.
Cajun Shrimp
We know her, we love her, and we’re obviously not that mad that OPI changed the formulation of this shade because—shocker!—we’re still wearing it! If you’re on the hunt for a spicy coral to pair with your summer looks, you just found it.
You Don’t Know Jacques!
You can find us at the salon getting this dark shade of rich, creamy taupe the second the weather cools down below 50 degrees. It’s a cozy classic that has never failed our editors.
Bubble Bath
This sweet pink polish had to land on our list of go-to shades. I mean, isn’t it one of your favorites too? It offers just the right amount of sheer, milky coverage to make your nails look healthy, shiny, and effortlessly groomed.
Miami Beet
When we want something red but not too red, this red-violet shade is a pick we never regret choosing. From the beach to brunch, it adds a just-right balance of spice and sass to any occassion.
Taupe-less Beach
This elegant blend of light gray and lavender is a trusty choice for everyday outfits and special occasions alike. It’s a great choice for when you’re looking for a neutral with a little more personality.
