Hailey Bieber’s “glazed donut nails” has been taking the internet by storm since she debuted them at the Met Gala in early May. The viral nail trend, which can be found under the tag “Hailey Bieber nails” on TikTok, has accumulated over 300 million views and doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon.
Bieber and her nail artist, Zola Ganzorigt broke down the nail concoction on social media, mentioning a thin layer of OPI’s Funny Bunny Nail Lacquer and the Chrome Effects powder in Tin Man Can as the two main products used to achieve the iridescent nail look. But as we know in beauty, nothing is ever one shade (or in this case one technique) fits all. For our melanated beauty lovers, we suggest opting for a light coloured acrylic powder base or layering on your choice of polish to really make your glazed nails pop.
I know we’re tired of my constant color switch up but… the chocolate glazed donut nails are really hitting for me for fall 🤤🤎🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩 @zolaganzorigt
To further help, we’ve rounded up five melanin-friendly polishes that can help you achieve the perfect glazed donut nails, whether you’re at the salon or at home.
Swipe a few coats of this nail colour for a sheer and natural looking base. The milky white polish leaves a smooth finish that can be worn on its own or layered with a shimmery topper.
This collection features three pigmented, high-shine nude shades in the colour Pinkish, Yes We Tan, and Brown & Bougie. The set, which carries a shade of soft pink, beige and rich brown can help you achieve many variations of the glazed nail trend, similar to Bieber’s strawberry and chocolate renditions.
