In 2016, OPI launched the Hello Kitty Collection, one of the most talked about collections of all time. The collection included the most searched-for OPI nail polish shade ever, Let’s Be Friends. This year, OPI is making holiday dreams come true with the Let’s Be Friends Hello Kitty 2019 collection!
