Sabrina Carpenter‘s headlining Coachella performance set the internet ablaze, due to the set design (shout-out to the car fountain) and celebrity guest appearances (Sam Elliott, Susan Sarandon, Will Ferrell, and Samuel L. Jackson). It also included some major fashion and beauty moments, thanks to custom Dior and a not-to-be-missed manicure. The latter was a chrome, cherry-cola-esque set.
Celebrity nail artist Zola Ganzorigt used OPI products to create Carpenter’s “vintage red” manicure. She used the professional-only Intelli-Gel line, but the good news is that you can secure the same shades in the brand’s traditional nail lacquer. (I prefer the Infinite Shine collection, which is designed to give a smooth, shiny finish similar to gel without any of the fuss.) This manicure has “summer mood board” written all over it. So, without further ado, keep scrolling to learn how to recreate Carpenter’s Coachella nails at home.
