Coty buys nail polish maker

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Cosmetic maker Coty may be shutting down its plant in Rocky Point next summer, but that doesn’t mean the company is scaling back all its operations.

Coty, best known for Jennifer Lopez and other famous fragrances, is buying nail polish maker OPI Products. The purchase will allow Coty to tap into OPI’s 200-plus chip-resistant nail polishes. It’ll also get Coty in the door at the professional salons already carrying OPI products.
