Safiya Nygaard Just Custom-Made the Prettiest Nail Polish Color in a Surprising Way

YouTube personality [1] Safiya Nygaard has made a lot of custom beauty products over the years, including "frankenlipsticks" [2] and a massive Bath and Body Works candle [3], but this time around she's teamed up with Cristine Raquel Rotenberg of Simply Nailogical [4] to create custom nail polish hues. The pair decided to head to the Orly Color Labs to create some custom colors (as opposed to, ya' know, using a blowtorch to melt a bunch of products together like usual).

First, the pair used an iPad to take a quiz to see which colors they were most drawn to and named their custom polish. Nygaard named hers "Here for the Teal," and Rotenberg decided to name her yellow polish [5] "Benana" after her boyfriend, Ben.

Next, the duo headed to the mixing bar, and a staffer helped them mix up the shade and add different levels of shimmer to their shade and bottle it. In honor of Nygaard's other videos, the pair also made a "franken-polish," by mixing every base shade themselves. Check out how the Franken-shade came out in the video above.
