Sabrina Carpenter is jumping on the chrome-nails trend [2] but adding her own twist. The singer and her nail artist, Mei Kawajiri [3], created a manicure with 3D texture [4], giving the nails an ethereal feel.
In a photo shared on her Instagram Stories, you can see Kawajiri opted to keep Carpenter's nails natural instead of adding extensions. She then added varying droplet designs [5] to each finger, almost mimicking the look of lava-lamp jelly. The manicure was finished with an opalescent chrome nail-polish shade that looked like it was straight from outer space.
Chrome manicures have been having a moment lately, with stars like Zendaya [6], Beyoncé, and Chloë [7] all wearing their own versions of the look. The trend was also given a new life thanks to Hailey Bieber's "glazed-doughnut" nails [8], which also utilize chrome powder for a "wet" look. This is all to say: chrome nails aren't going anywhere any time soon.
Take a closer look at Carpenter's nails below.
