The 15 Most Popular Deborah Lippmann Nail Polishes of All Time, Ranked
Some nail polish brands are just superior. They just are! And to tell it to you straight, legendary polish brand Deborah Lippmann is one of them. It totally makes sense. As one of the most sought-after manicurists to the A-list, Deborah Lippmann launched her eponymous line of nail polishes, treatments, and lip products back in 1999, and to risk sounding cliché, the rest is kind of history.
Fast-forward more than 20 years, and any product bearing the Deborah Lippmann label is just as highly heralded by celebrities, editors, and nail pros alike, and not surprisingly, the line has accrued its fair share of ultra-iconic, mega-popular shades. So we tapped the brand's HQ to find out the precise contents of its best-seller list. Below, the 15 most-wanted Deborah Lippmann nail polishes of all time, ranked by popularity. Keep scrolling!

For special occasions or days when she's taking more meetings or has an event, she'll wear anything and everything from Charlotte Tilbury (the foundations are game-changing), some shimmer on her lids (Stila and Róen do it best), and a few coats of the best mascara-type product on earth, Surratt's Noir Lash Tint.
