Not Glazed, Not Milky Pink—Fashion-Forward Brides-to-Be Are Cosigning This Retro-Chic Manicure
Ariana Grande and Lana Del Rey are past fans too.
Attention, pop music lovers and NFL fanatics: Madison Beer and Justin Herbert are engaged! After sparking dating rumors in the summer of 2025, the WWW cover star and Los Angeles Chargers quarterback are deciding on forever. The couple documented the idyllic moment with a loved-up carousel on Instagram, set in a flower-strewn garden beneath a sprawling backdrop of mossy mountains. Beer, 27, redefined engagement style with a low-rise, knee-grazing lace skirt and cropped ivory sweater, but we zeroed in on the everlastingly cool manicure Beer paired with her sparkling diamond amid the romantic scroll.
Having just wrapped up the tour for her third studio album, Locket, at Madison Square Garden in New York City, Beer was certainly already riding on a high—making her engagement to Herbert an even sweeter conclusion to a monumental month in her career. Though it was hard to make out the specifics of her manicure in the first flurry of images (Herbert lifting the singer over his shoulder, VHS-esque images of the star's ring-adorned fingers wrapping lovingly around her fiancé), we finally were able to get a read on her timeless nails: a '60s-inspired, retro-chic stiletto French manicure. Perfectly classic, beloved by pop stars for years (Lana Del Rey and Ariana Grande come to mind), and Beer's apparent signature—the effortlessly cool set being all too fitting for the It bride.
The star's manicurist, L.A.-based nail artist Analysse Hernandez, stuck to the pair's usual (yet bridal-coded) routine by using OPI's beloved milky-pink polish Bubble Bath as the base and sculpting her soft white tips with OPI's Funny Bunny. To achieve her signature length, Hernandez used OPI's GELevate Soft Gel Tips in a medium almond shape for that dreamy, angular silhouette that looks oh-so good with diamonds.
If you're screenshotting these engagement photos to show your manicurist (don't worry, so are we), we'd recommend asking for an elongated French manicure with medium almond tips at the salon. The key to making this retro style feel updated is to ask for the white tips to begin past where your actual nail ends. The result is an elegant, elongated look that looks especially chic when paired with a sparkling rock.
