When giving ourselves a DIY manicure, OPI is the one brand that we keep coming back to — and for good reason. OPI nail polishes are famously chip-resistant for longer, with the Infinite Shine range promising a gel-like finish that can last for up to 11 days. The brand also pulls off trendy crossovers like no other, releasing swoon-worthy collaborations inspired by pop culture icons like Hello Kitty and Barbie. And, let’s not forget the long list of classic OPI colors that have gone viral on TikTok: Lincoln Park After Dark, Big Red Apple, and Bubble Bath, to name a few.
Now that cozy season is officially upon us, it’s the perfect time to swap out your summer brights for deep, vampy hues that capture the vibe of the months ahead. Happily, OPI’s lineup of new launches and cult-favorites are here to deliver. Whether you’re after a rich burgundy, an earthy neutral, or something with just a touch of festive shimmer, the OPI shades ahead are about to be your new seasonal favorites.
At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

The “Ga” is Silent
Perfectly timed to capitalize on yet another pop culture phenomenon, the OPI x Wicked Collection consist of 12 whimsical shades inspired by characters in the upcoming musical blockbuster. We’re positively enchanted by The “Ga” is Silent, a pearly, translucent neutral which calls to mind the bubbly Glinda The Good Witch (aka “Galinda”, her original name before arriving at Shiz University).

I’m Not Really a Waitress
A cool burgundy red will never go out of favor for colder months. OPI’s interpretation of the jewel tone comes with a flirty name, tons of shimmer, and a glossy shine that won’t budge until you see fit to remove it.
