Olivia Wilde [1] is the latest celebrity proving the staying power of milk-bath nails [2]. Wilde stepped out for a date night out with Harry Styles, and while he chose to wear a teal polish for the occasion, she kept her manicure a simple milky hue that was the cherry on top of her blue and floral outfit.
Milk-bath nails have been rising in popularity this year, coinciding with the "clean girl" nail aesthetic [3] on TikTok. Although celebrity manicurist Elle Gerstein [4] previously told POPSUGAR that the manicure typically includes dried flowers embedded into a milky color acrylic, many celebrities have chosen to opt out of the floral element and stick to the neutral white-pinkish polish shade. This allows the manicure to be versatile enough to be done on a variety of nail types like gel [5] or gel-x [6].
The milky-hued manicure has been seen on celebrities like Kylie Jenner [7], Selena Gomez [8], and Jennifer Lopez [9], and is a perfect year-round manicure that can be worn by itself or used as a base for other nail-art designs [10]. If you're someone who prefers a more minimal nail look [11], this just may be the manicure for you. Take a closer look at Wilde's nails ahead.
