Even if you typically tend toward bold, bright polish colors when you pay your nail salon a visit, there are always occasions that call for a more subtle manicure shade. And if you've ever struggled to find a muted hue that makes for a great go-to, one widely popular nail polish brand is dropping an ideal solution. OPI's Always Bare For You collection features six essential shades that offer just a hint of pretty, feminine color, for those moments that require the most demure manicure — but these colors are so magical, you may just want to wear them every day.

Much-loved polish brand OPI is making it incredibly easy to nail a delicate manicure with its latest launch, the Always Bare For You collection. The six-shade launch, available in stores like Ulta and Amazon beginning April 2019, is inspired by the soft femininity of brides, weddings, and the season of love. But you don't have to be betrothed to grab up these gorgeous colors.

"While the colors of this collection may have been designed with brides in mind, Always Bare For You is ideal for anyone looking to get a soft and subtle spring beauty look," OPI Co-Founder and Brand Ambassador Suzi Wiess-Fischmann said in a press release. "These six shades offer the perfect balance to bold hues, offering just a hint of color, and are sure to be bestsellers like other SoftShades such as Bubble Bath and Alpine Snow."

The six brand-new colors range from soft pink and shimmery champagne to a subdued lilac and a ladylike blue-grey shade, in finishes that include sheer, creme, and iridescent. A blushing pink shade, Baby, Take A Vow, is as pretty for a bride during her walk down the aisle as it would be for a spring garden party, while the metallic champagne Chiffon-d Of You makes for a great bachelorette weekend manicure.

The muted blue Ring Bear-er creme color is one way to check off the "something blue" on your special day — but it's equally fit for wear throughout spring to play up the season's pastel trend. Perhaps add some pearl embellishments to try two trending looks at once. Alternatively, go for a naked-nail look with Bare My Soul, a chic nude hue that'll never be out of style.

All six of the shades will be up for grabs in the brand's classic Nail Laquer for $10.50 per bottle, in its longer-lasting Infinite Shine formulation for $13 each, and at nail salons in OPI's popular GelColor when you really need to ensure your manicure stays fresh.

Snag a bottle (or all six) for yourself the next time you're shopping at your go-to beauty store, or keep an eye out for the fresh new shades when you go in for your next salon mani.
