Let Us Rejoicify Over Cynthia Erivo’s OPI Nail Look for NYC Wicked Premiere

Cynthia Erivo‘s nail artist Mycah Dior, aka @ClawzbyDior_ is revealing the magical inspiration and details behind the actress’s stunning OPI nail look for the NYC Wicked movie premiere. Erivo, who plays Elphaba in the film, has been sporting incredible, intricate nails inspired by her character while attending promotional events for Wicked, and Dior is the young talent creating them.

“This whimsical set is inspired by Wicked, of course. It brings Elphaba and Glinda’s worlds to life,” Dior explains. “Green and pink colors embody their contrasting personalities, with Elphaba’s vivid green skin and Glinda’s soft, light-hearted aura. Hand-sculpted, painted 3D eyes add a bold, mysterious element, while a hand-drawn clock captures the timeless magic of the story. Every detail adds to the enchanting, whimsical feel of this set. It took about 4 hours to create.”

Dior created this set using these OPI colors:

• Witch O’Clock
• Ozitively Elphaba
• Let’s Rejoicify
• Mod About You
• Alpine Snow
• Black Onyx 

Each nail has its own look:

• “For two of the nails, I applied OPI Let’s Rejoicify using a fine detailing brush, drawing a French tip or diagonal line and filling in the negative space with GelColor Top Coat.”
• “I drew a crisscross pattern overlay in a darker green, an almost black shade, to add depth and contrast, giving it a chic and textured appearance.”
• “Embellishments, like green rhinestones and crystals, are applied along one side of the nail, enhancing the glamorous vibe and adding dimensionality. I think the hand drawn elements like the clock and the eye really stand out as well.”
