Hailey Bieber is the CEO of glazed donut skin. In other words, that's a glossy, dewy look for those of you who are not in the Krispy Kreme loop. And now, the model has set yet another viral beauty trend and it is one that people are going crazy for on TikTok.
At this year's Met Gala, which saw Hailey take the red carpet by storm in white silk and feathers, the beauty entrepreneur and founder of the newly established Rhode Skin debuted a manicure that got everyone talking. So much so, that because of the hype, the nail tech and genius behind the look, Zola Ganzorigt has shared her very own TikTok tutorial.
In the video that you can watch below, Zola coins the manicure "glazed donut nails" and uses the OPI Stay Strong GelColor Base Coat, £18.70 , OPI Infinite Shine Long-Wear Nail Polish in Funny Bunny, £11.63 and the OPI Stay Shiny GelColor Top Coat, £18.70 , all consecutively. Then for the shine, she shares that she used the OPI Chrome Nail Effect Powder in Tin Man Can.
This really is the embodiment of glam-our.
Ever since, we've seen Hailey, as well as fans, all recreate the look and she even rocked the trend in her most recent Instagram selfie.
And it's not just us regular folk who have been loving the look, as Hails' friend and fellow beauty founder, Kylie Jenner also just jumped on the chrome nailwagon. Here she is sporting the trend in her IG story earlier today:
As we can see, instead of the classic white-silver, Kylie has opted for a muted pink-lilac chrome tone, which is just as chic.
Unfortunately for us Brits, the OPI Chrome Nail Effect Powders are not yet available in the UK. But fear not, for in the meantime we have rounded up some of our favourite similar chrome nail varnishes that you can shop here:
