If you didn't hear, Selena Gomez got married, and her wedding nails might just be our favorite detail from the entire day. On Sep. 27, the singer and actor married music producer Benny Blanco in Santa Barbara, and while her Ralph Lauren halter gown and Old Hollywood bob were undeniably stunning, it's her glazed-doughnut manicure that tied everything together.
Gomez worked with her longtime nail artist, Tom Bachik, to create a look that feels like the definition of modern bridal. In a close-up photo shared by Blanco, her nails are filed into a soft almond shape and painted a sheer, ballet-slipper pink before being topped with a chrome glaze. The result was a dreamy, pearlescent nail that catches the light every time she moved her hand — the perfect match for a sparkling new wedding band.
What makes this manicure so special is its balance. It's minimal and classic, but the chrome finish gives it a contemporary twist that feels completely on-trend for 2025. Chrome nails have been everywhere this year, but Gomez's version is softer, subtler, and romantic.
The shape also deserves attention. Almond nails are elongating and feminine without being too sharp, adding to the timeless feel. Together, the color, finish, and shape create a look that feels elegant but not overdone — exactly the kind of manicure you want to look back on years from now.
Want to try it yourself? Start with a sheer pink base like Essie's Gel Couture Sheer Fantasy ($13) or OPI's Nail Lacquer Baby, Take A Vow ($12), add a pearly chrome powder like Le Mini Macaron Le Glazed! Chrome Nail Powder Set ($11) or the Dashing Diva Chrome Powder ($11) for that glazed finish, and seal it with a top coat, like the Vite Dry Fast Top Coat ($8) for maximum shine and longevity. Finish with cuticle oil, like Sally Hansen Vitamin E Nail & Cuticle Oil ($7) or the Essie On A Roll Apricot Roll-On Hydrating Cuticle Oil ($18) for that fresh-from-the-salon look.
