Selena Gomez [2] is firmly in her "quiet luxury" era [3]. On Oct. 7, the actor's longtime manicurist Tom Bachik [4] posted a picture of her latest nail look, captioning the photo: "Rare Bombshell Mani 💅." Against the backdrop of a sparkly sweater, Gomez's fresh supermodel nails [5] were front and center, and the entire look just screams old money.

Gomez's manicure was filed into a slightly tapered square shape [6] and painted a translucent shade of pink, courtesy of the Essie Mademoiselle Nail Polish [7] ($10). The shade mimicked the hue of her natural nails perfectly, and the addition of a glossy top coat helped to retain that coveted shine that's become a signature of the trend.

Supermodel nails are a favorite among champions of effortless, minimal beauty. Sofia Richie shocked fans when it was revealed on TikTok that she also uses a $10 nail polish [8] to get the look, and other stars like Hailey Bieber [9] and Anne Hathaway [10] have all been spotted in various versions over the last year. For your own supermodel nails, make sure to stick with neutral tones, and most importantly, pick a lacquer that's transparent enough to have people wondering if you have any color on at all. For some timely inspiration, take a closer look at Gomez's nails below.
