OPI Is Releasing a Barbie Nail-Polish Collection, and the Shade Names Are Too Good
OPI is making Barbiecore nails accessible from the comfort of your own dreamhouse. The beauty brand just unveiled a new nail polish collection inspired by Greta Gerwig's upcoming "Barbie" movie, and it's even better than we could've hoped. Releasing July 1, the line includes nine limited-edition colors with names like "Every Night Is Girls Night" and "Welcome to Barbie Land!" The $11 nail lacquers range from the perfect hot pink to bright pastels, with both creamy and metallic finishes.
With the premiere date for Gerwig's film slowly inching closer, the hype surrounding the Barbiecore aesthetic has only continued to grow. The trend involves over-the-top sparkle, vibrant color palettes, and Y2K influences, all of which can be seen in OPI's latest collection. "The pink aesthetic is a fashion and beauty staple," OPI rep Jill Bartoshevich said in a press release. "The collection's palette of nostalgia evoking hues offers consumers a taste of escapism with an array of joyful colors."
Plenty of celebrities have hopped aboard the Barbiecore manicure bandwagon, with Selena Gomez wearing shiny bubblegum-pink acrylics and Megan Thee Stallion opting for a similarly simple neon iteration. As for Barbie herself, aka Margot Robbie, she delivered the most subtle take of all while posing with a pale-pink manicure for the cover of Vogue's summer 2023 issue.
The beauty of OPI's new collection is that you can decide exactly what a Barbie-inspired manicure looks like to you. Read on to find your favorite shade and see where to preorder the collection before it drops.
