Celebrating 45 Years of OPI: The Nail Group’s Journey as OPIcons.

The Nail Group team with fellow nail professionals chosen as OPIcons celebrating OPI’s 45th anniversary at community shoot.

Marking 45 years of OPI is a significant moment in the nail industry and one we are incredibly proud to be part of.

Being chosen as OPIcons is a meaningful recognition for our team at The Nail Group. It represents trust, visibility, and acknowledgement of the care, skill, and professionalism we bring to our work every day. As nail artists, to be recognised by a brand that has helped shape the global nail industry is both an honour and a milestone.

OPI has been part of our journey from the very beginning. Known for its iconic shades, forward-thinking innovation, and influence on nail culture, the brand has played a key role in shaping how we view nails today - not simply as a beauty treatment, but as a form of artistry, identity, and self-expression.

A highlight of this experience was taking part in OPI’s community shoot. The day brought together a collective of talented professionals in an environment that felt creative, collaborative, and genuinely uplifting. It was a celebration of not only the brand’s legacy, but also the community that continues to drive the industry forward.

For our team, this moment goes beyond celebration. It reflects the importance of standards, education, and connection within the nail profession - values we continue to champion through our work and our community.

We are grateful to be part of this milestone and proud to contribute to a legacy that has inspired generations of nail artists.

Here’s to 45 years of colour, creativity, confidence and to everything still to come!
