Best Celebrity Manicures and Nail Art of 2021 So Far

These Celebs Are Already Bringing the Heat In 2021 With These Outrageous Manicures

You can always count on a handful of celebrities for some exceptional nail art. In the beginning of last year, everyone from Lizzo and Kylie Jenner to Saweetie and plenty more set the bar high with the complex designs adorned on their fingers while attending red carpet events and award shows. While our gatherings look entirely different today than they did one year ago, the stars are still bringing their A-game in 2021 with boundary-pushing manicures that are award-worthy all on their own.

While some of the bigger nail-art trends to take over last year included bold, geometric patters, crystal adornments, and abstract shapes, things are only set to get more dramatic in 2021, and these celebs are the proof we needed. From manicures that celebrate body positivity to the ones that acknowledge the start of a new year, we rounded up some of the best celebrity manicures we've seen this year so far.

Saweetie couldn't be the only one in the "Best Friend" music video with over-the-top nails, of course. Doja Cat, who starred in the video with her, wore light pink pom poms on her nails to match her outfit and cotton candy pink hair.
