Some people need coffee for a midday booster, while others just need a 10-minute video of Machine Gun Kelly and Pete Davidson getting fresh manicures [4]. (We'll leave you to guess which camp we fall into.) MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker, showed off his cool new nail art [5] for a Calvin Klein campaign he filmed with Davidson, and it's worth zooming in on.

The clip comes at perfect timing, as Baker just launched his own nail polish line called UN/DN LAQR [6]. The ranges includes 10 colours, as well as a matte base coat and gloss top/bottom coat, so we'd be willing to bet these are the polishes used during the manicures. Celebrity manicurist Julie Kandalec [7] was behind Baker's look and created a lightning bolt design on each finger, which perfectly matched the musician's rockstar aesthetic, but kept the base a soft baby pick to contrast. Pete Davidson, on the other hand, kept it simple and opted for an opaque purple-blue ("Veri Peri" inspired [8], maybe?) manicure. Both stars chose to keep their nails short and square, and we must say, we're really looking forward to their next designs.

Take a look at the manicures below to strike up some at home nail inspiration [9].
