Some sweet news for a Thursday treat: Nail polish brand OPI and M&M’s have teamed up on a limited-edition holiday collection inspired by the colorful little chocolates we all know and love.
Launching today, the OPI x M&M’s Sweeten Your Mani collection includes classic crème and shimmer shades in four favorite OPI formulas (Nail Lacquer, the polish classic; GelColor, the long-wear in-salon gel; Infinite Shine, with gel-like wear and regular polish application; and RapiDry, a one-coat manicure in 60 seconds), plus press-ons and holiday gift sets.
For OPI cofounder Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, these colors carry extra nostalgia. She grew up in Hungary waiting eagerly for care packages of M&M’s from her aunt, and her mother would ration out just a few a day. Holding those vibrant colors in her hand is a “core memory,” she says, and she calls the collab the “sweetest pairing” to cap OPI’s 45th anniversary year.
For gifting, there are three mini packs: a 12-piece set with all 12 holiday Nail Lacquer shades in an advent-style box, a six-piece set with six of them and a four-piece set that pairs two holiday shades with two OPI classics: Bubble Bath and Big Apple Red. On the press-on side, there are six Sticking Point Instant No Glue designs, including two monochrome options, some with M&M’s-colored French tips, others with M&M’s-inspired circles and more.
With the holidays still a few months away, we won’t judge (or be surprised) if you wear your favorite shades from the collection well before the festive season. Like a bag of M&M’s they’re hard to resist, after all. Keep scrolling to shop a handful of our favorites from the lineup.
