Hailey Bieber's Nail Artist Told Me *These* Are the Coolest OPI Nail Colours to Wear This Summer
Celebrity nail artist Zola Ganzorigt is responsible for some of the most stylish and trendsetting manicures in the world. Her clients include Hailey Bieber, Kylie Jenner, and Sabrina Carpenter, so she's created bespoke nail looks for brand campaigns, product launches, award shows, and even headlining Coachella performances. She's also the expert behind one of the most internet-famous manicures in recent history—glazed doughnut nails.
Needless to say, Ganzorigt is a premier nail expert and the perfect person to handpick the coolest nail colours of summer 2026. As an OPI global ambassador, she's uniquely positioned to select shades from its comprehensive selection. Ahead, see her top five picks for the coolest OPI nail colours for summer 2026.
1. Funny Bunny
Ganzorigt's first pick is none other than the original Funny Bunny nail polish, which is one half of her iconic glazed doughnut manicure. The other was the original Tin Man Can Chrome Effects Powder. FYI, OPI recently rereleased it under a new name—the Tin Man Can Glaze Chrome Effects Powder.
"Clean, effortless, and endlessly versatile, this soft white is perfect for a minimalist summer manicure," Ganzorigt says. "I also love using it for layering (I like pairing it with neutral pinks) or creating the French tip for a French manicure. It also goes great with Chrome Effects in Tin Man Can Glaze.
2. Alpine Snow
Ganzorigt also recommends OPI's iconic bright-white nail polish, Alpine Snow. It's another versatile shade that can be worn alone or mixed and layered with other shades for a custom effect. "For those who love a crisp, bright white nail, this shade is especially beautiful against sun-kissed skin," she says.
3. Sunny Bunny
Ganzorigt's third pick is Sunny Bunny. "As one of the season's biggest colour trends, butter yellow delivers a fresh, playful touch, making this OPI shade perfect for the summer!" she says. It's basically sunshine, bottled.
4. Mexico City Move-Mint
Next up, Ganzorigt recommends a colour from OPI's spring 2020 Mexico City Collection. Mexico City Move-Mint is a soft, understated mint green. "It's bright, refreshing, and adds the perfect pop of colour for beach days and warm-weather weekends," she says. It's currently unavailable in the UK, but a close match is Gelato on My Mind, pictured above.
5. Mod About You
Last but certainly not least, Ganzorigt names OPI's Mod About You as a top shade for summer. The delicate pastel pink is a classic. "This soft pink is timeless," she says. "It's feminine, flattering on everyone, and perfect for everything from weddings to summer nights out with friends."
