POPSUGAR: Does the outfit come first or does your nail idea come first?
Elle: The outfit definitely comes first. I don’t do it on set, so Jada and I come together, talk about what she wants to do, and I give her ideas.
PS: How long has the most intense manicure taken?
E: Not more than an hour, including fillings. Just like getting her nails done. But after she is done shooting Magic Mike, we are really going to take it to the next level.
PS: What has your favorite nail been to create?
E: We have been really conservative — they are only going to get better! We’re definitely going to do a lot more texture work, probably different shaping. But the filigree manicure was my favorite so far.
PS: Would that filigree be wearable in real life? How do you wear that?
E: Oh, it’s a nail shield that is glued to her nail! There is a brand called Nail Veil that you can purchase it from — it’s an actual piece of jewelry glued onto your nails.
