As a beauty editor, I’m often trying a lot of trending nail colours. From nail art to the nail trends, I want in. But as much as I love experimenting with my nails, you sometimes can’t beat a classic. Which is why Funny Bunny nails will always have a special place in my roster of my all-time favourite nail colours.
What Are Funny Bunny Nails?
OPI’s Nail Lacquer in Funny Bunny is a favourite nail colour shade amongst the Who What Wear UK team, including managing editor Poppy Nash.
So why are funny bunny nails so popular? Funny Bunny, a now iconic nail colour by OPI, is often hailed as the perfect milky white nail colour by celebrity nail tech and salon go-ers alike. One coat gives a sheer veil of colour and two gives a more opaque milky finish that is still sheer allows your nails to show through. And it’s so chic.
It suits all skin tones, and it comes in both nail polish and also a gel version if you’re getting your mani done in-salon. It pairs seriously well with other nail colours (many swear by Funny Bunny and Bubble Bath as their signature manicure combo if you’re after a milky-pink colour) and it really look off when Hailey Bieber’s manicurist, Zola Ganzorigt, made glazed donut nails a thing, which sees Funny Bunny paired with a white chrome powder. It’s a great nail colour choice if you love neutral polishes but want something more milky-looking than a pink shade.
In fact, Funny Bunny is Who What Wear UK managing editor, Poppy Nash’s, favourite nail colour of choice. “I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I’ve gone to the nail salon and NOT opted for Funny Bunny,” she tells me.
“It is sheer, so I always, always get three coats. Two is way too sheer and looks too white, but with three you get more of a creamy, pale pink tone to it which suits my skin tone a lot better,” she says. “I also like that it doesn’t look too shabby when it starts to grow out—which is a big plus for me because I can be a little infrequent with my appointments!”

Green Flash Varnish in Milky White
I love Manucurist’s formulas, which are the closest thing you can get to gel without it actually being a gel polish. These ‘cure’ under a LED light but can easily be removed and last for around 7-10 days. The milky white shade is a close match for Funny Bunny.
