The [OPI](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/opi-x-wicked) 'Shrek' nail polish line features shades like 'Fiercely Fiona' and 'Rumple's Wiggin,' which range from lilac purple to a greeny-yellow.

The OPI 'Shrek' nail polish line is inspired by the final installment of the 'Shrek' movies entitled 'Shrek Forever After.' If OPI thinks that [ogre-inspired nails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiss-x-wicked-for-good) are in for summer, I can't help but wonder what inspiration OPI will draw from next.
