Olivia Rodrigo and Madison Beer Both Wore This $12 Nail Polish to the Grammys

Last night, the 66th annual Grammy Awards took place in Los Angeles. While there were many notable beauty looks to discuss, including Taylor Swift's Schiaparelli Couture dress and Miley Cyrus's "golden goddess" makeup, we noticed something that would have otherwise slipped subtly under the radar. Two Gen Z celebs walked the pre-show red carpet with classic nude manicures that were created with the exact same drugstore nail polish, and it's only $12. As far as red carpet beauty moments go, this one couldn't be easier to re-create. Keep scrolling to see each celeb's manicure and the nail polish used and learn the exact steps it takes to re-create it. 

Olivia Rodrigo

Yoko Sakakura is the celebrity nail artist who created Rodrigo's manicure. "Tonight, we decided to switch it up from Olivia's usual dark and edgy nails," she said in a press release. "OPI has the prettiest classic shades, and we specifically chose two of my favorite natural tones to capture the same elegant aesthetic as her cream dress adorned in crystals.”

She used OPI's salon-only gel nail polish, but lucky for us, we can re-create the look at home using the exact same shades of the brand's traditional nail polish. In other words, we can get the look without a UV lamp.

Sakakura started by prepping Rodrigo's nails, and then she applied a base coat and cured it. For our purposes, we'll use OPI's Natural Nail Base Coat ($12). Then, it's time for nail color.

First, she applied a thin coat of the brand's iconic shade Put It in Neutral, which is a pink-beige. 

Then, she applied a thin coat of another iconic shade, Bubble Bath, over top. (This is a classic sheer pink and a Who What Wear team favorite.) Sakakura finished off the simple yet effective combo with a layer of topcoat. Again, she used the salon-only gel version, but we'll use OPI's Top Coat ($12). It's as easy as that. 

Madison Beer

Sreynin Peng is the celebrity nail artist who created Madison Beer's manicure. "Keeping it very classic, we went with two popular OPI shades, Do You Take Lei Away? and Put It in Neutral, for Madison's nail look," she said in a press release. "Madison has amazing nails, so we kept the same almond shape that she regularly sports, which can really elevate any nail look. This combined with the layering of the shades offered a timeless nail that perfectly complemented Madison's gown."

Again, OPI's salon-only gel nail polish was used, but we can re-create the look with the same shades in traditional nail lacquer. Just as before, we'll start by prepping our nails and using OPI's Natural Nail Base Coat ($12) to set the foundation for color.

Once the base coat was dry, Peng applied a coat of this muted beige onto Beer's almond-shaped nails. 

Then, she added a layer of Put It in Neutral over the top. The final step was to apply a topcoat. Again, we'll use OPI's Top Coat ($12). That's it—four easy steps to re-creating a red carpet manicure.
