There's something about having well-manicured nails that just makes you feel like you have your life in order, even if it's going literally the opposite. OPI has more than earned its place as one of our go-to nail polish brands for perfectly manicured nails. The names are clever, the formula is long-lasting, and there's a wide range of gorgeous colors to choose from.
That wide range of colors means that choosing the perfect shade can be a bit, well, overwhelming. To help narrow it down, we rounded up its top-selling shades, and let's just say there's a major commonality among them. Spoiler alert: There are a lot of pale blushes and whites.
