The LBD of Nail Polish: OPI Black Onyx®

The black that changed the game.

The LBD of Nail Polish: OPI Black Onyx®

Before black nail polish was an everyday classic, it had a reputation. Goth. Punk. Halloween. Then Black Onyx came along in 1989. It broke beauty taboos and made jet-black nails feel sleek, high-fashion, and wearable. More than three decades later, it’s still one of OPI’s most popular core shades. Basically, the LBD theory holds up: Black Onyx goes with everything, never really goes out of style, and somehow still looks good every single time.
