If minimalist beauty trends are right up your alley, allow us to turn your attention to Hailey Bieber. Over the last few years, the model has solidified herself as the queen of dewy, natural-looking beauty looks, and her latest manicure obsession perfectly fits the bill. Dubbed "glazed donut nails" and created by her go-to manicurist, Zola Ganzorigt, this manicure is a dream for anyone looking to take a little break from over-the-top nail-art designs.
"I go through phases where I stick to a theme with my nails for a consistent amount of time," Bieber tells POPSUGAR in a recent interview for Rhode, her new skin-care line. "A few months ago, I was doing these jelly-coloured nails, where I was taking a colour and adding clear to it on top to make it look like it was see-through, so I did that for a while. Then I bounced to something else for a bit."
Bieber discovered "glazed donut nails" almost on accident while she and Ganzorigt were working together for the 2022 Met Gala. They had already applied one coat of a subtle, baby-pink nail polish colour when Ganzorigt proposed a slight change. "She was like, 'Do you wanna see it with the chrome dust?'" says Bieber. "I've done chrome before but I had never done it with a thin coat of polish before, and as soon as we did it, I was like, 'I'm sticking with this. This is my new phase.'"

Since trying out the look for the first time at the Met, she's been experimenting with different iterations. "I'm testing it with a few different colours and this is like the nude-y shade — my glazed donut nails."
Chrome nails are one of summer's biggest nail-art trends, but most celebrities have been using bold hues like silver, purple, gold, and green, while Bieber's glazed donut nails are a much more understated take on the look.
