Sheer polish always finds a way to creep back into our summer routines, doesn’t it? There’s just something easy, effortless, and a little nostalgic about that barely-there tint on your nails that catches the light just right. If your polish drawer could use a reset—and your warm-weather wardrobe has been calling for color—OPI’s Make 'Em Jelly Summer 2025 Collection might be exactly what you’re missing.

This collection reintroduces 12 playful shades in the best sheer nail polish, buildable finish that lets your natural nail peek through—like lip gloss, but for your fingertips. Whether you're into soft pastels, juicy brights, or something in between, there's enough here to keep things interesting without feeling overdone.

Here’s what’s catching attention this season.

OPI Gel Lacquer Color – For Those Who Want Staying Power

When you want that color to last from beach days to late nights, OPI’s GelColor formula is the way to go. The re-released shades in the Make 'Em Jelly lineup are sheer enough to layer but bold enough to stand on their own. The following shades are also available in single bottle, both gelcolor  polish, nail lacquers and  sheer gel nail polish.

Blue Them All Away – A sheer sky blue that feels like flipping through old summer photos with grainy blue skies in the background. Great for cooler undertones or anyone who loves a fresh-from-the-pool look.

Pear-Clutching Behavior – If you’ve been chasing that soft pearly green that doesn’t lean too minty or murky, this one settles right in the sweet spot.

Pose-in-Ivy – A juicy, sheer lime that’s like a fresh squeeze of citrus for your nails. Slightly edgy, but still very wearable.

Daffodil Duck Walk – Bright yellow in a wash of sunshine. This one gives just enough color to pop, without overwhelming your hand.

IndiGO Off
A sheer periwinkle-blue that feels calm but never boring. Layer it for a soft denim glaze or wear it sheer for a barely-there wash with just enough edge.

Vogue en Violet
This cool violet jelly brings a quiet boldness. It’s the kind of purple that flatters all skin tones and gives your nails a touch of moody polish—without going dark.

These lacquers are ideal for nail lovers who switch colors often or enjoy building their look one layer at a time. And with OPI’s signature wide brush, even a sheer shade goes on smooth—no streaks, no stress.

OPI Infinite Shine – Make ‘Em Jelly Collection (Restage Version)

This 12-shade Infinite Shine lineup brings a glossy, sheer twist to some of OPI’s best sheer nail polish and most playful summer tones. From lemony soft yellow (Keep Up Buttercup) and punchy raspberry (CelebrATE That) to sky-toned blue (It’s in Your Jeans) and fiery coral-pink (Drop It Like It’s Hawt), each shade offers that see-through jelly finish you can build up or wear sheer. Greens, purples, peaches, and power-pinks round out the mix—giving you an entire summer of color moods in one smooth, long-wear formula best sheer gel nail polish.

Why This Collection Works

Sheer polish might seem like it doesn’t “do” much—but that’s kind of the point. These jellies let your natural nail be part of the look. They're low-maintenance, flattering across all skin tones, and more forgiving when it comes to chips or quick touch-ups.

Plus, there’s something oddly satisfying about watching the color build across coats. One swipe is a whisper. Two? That’s a soft statement. And three layers? You’ve got full-on summer vibes—without needing to pick just one polish per manicure.

So, What’s Your Sheer Style?

Are you into layering and subtle effects, or do you go for maximum color in three coats flat? Which shade from the Make 'Em Jelly collection is calling your name? And how do you feel about sheer polishes in general—love them, or prefer a solid cream?
