Hailey Bieber is a bonafide beauty legend. The Rhode founder and notorious cool-girl extraordinaire always has her finger on the pulse, making her a real tastemaker and force to be reckoned with in the beauty industry. And people are definitely taking notice of every little detail—from her haircuts to her makeup looks to her nails.

When it comes to the latter, Bieber has truly excelled. With every manicure, she seems to amplify yet another trend (think: glazed donut nails or lip gloss manis). Ahead, we break down some of Bieber's most iconic manis to date. Consider this the ultimate source of nail inspo (you're welcome).

The Glazed Donut

Ah, the chrome, metallic manicure that started it all. Futuristic and bold yet soft and dainty, the ultra-luxe, high-shine manicure quickly caught on like wildfire. Call it the manicure that inspired a million manicures, the glazed donut, or just a plain old chrome manicure. Either way, its impact can't be overstated. We're still gravitating toward this pearly sheen mani nearly a year and a half later.

Pink Velvet Nails

With this nail look, Bieber departed from her classic glazed manicure. Instead, she opted for a velvet pink manicure. The finish mimics the beloved fuzzy finish of, you guessed it, velvet fabric and has been a mani favorite for years. It's typically created using flocking powder or magnetic polishes, as it appears Bieber's nail artist did. The neutral shade and concentrated shimmer create an aura-like effect that takes the "your-nails-but-better trend" and adds a little spice.

Barbie Glazed Nails

Bieber's Barbie-pink nails are extra glossy and glazed. This iteration of her famous glazed is one of her most vibrant chrome looks to date and the perfect nod to the Barbiecore movement.

Chocolate Glazed Donut Nails

Over the last few years, Bieber has made her devotion to looking like a glistening glazed donut more than clear. And this brown manicure is yet another example. She dubbed the look chocolate glazed donut nails. Bieber's no stranger to the iridescent sheen, but the deep brown color was a serious departure from her usual pastel mainstays.

Strawberry Jello Nails

"Strawberry Girl" makeup took over TikTok this year. While promoting the launch of her Krispy Kreme x Rhode strawberry peptide lip treatment, Bieber indulged in the trend with what she calls a strawberry Jello manicure. She wore true red, glossy nails that were perfectly on theme for her new launch.

Lip Gloss Nails

Bieber is no stranger to the barely-there mani. Here, she deviated from her glazed donut devotion, opting for lip gloss nails in a semi-sheer, neutral tone. Of course, she kept her go-to glossy, high-shine finish, albeit this one came with a bit less sparkle and a subtle ombre effect, starting with a muted baby pink that flowed into a nearly clear color at the tips.

07 of 18

Strawberry Milk Nails

Got milk? Bieber once again traded her usual glazing finish for a simpler strawberry milk-colored (read: creamy pale pink) polish with a shiny finish. With a semi-sheer, almost hazy finish, her manicure seemed to be a riff on the milk bath nail trend we've seen so many celebs rocking lately. The dainty pink hue added a coquette-ish quality to the mani.

Pearly Girly Nails

If lip gloss nails are a step down from glazed donut nails, what's a step up? Meet the pearly girly manicure, which features a chrome, semi-sheer baby pink base, glazed finish, and delicate pearl decals placed near the cuticle and on the nail tip. All three styles sit closely together on the spectrum of barely-there, your-nails-but-better manicures, but the devil really is in the details here, with each one having its own unique look and feel.

Modern Tortoiseshell Nails

Bieber's almond-shaped mani features traditional brown tortoiseshell designs on each nail. To bring the look to life at home, you will need a chocolate brown polish like Butter London's Boozy Chocolate and a caramel one like OPI's Enter The Golden Era.

Mismatched Tortoiseshell Nails

While Bieber largely sticks to neutral tones and glazed finishes, she's not afraid to go bold with her manicures. Her mismatched tortoiseshell manicure is the perfect example. The alternating solid, baby-blue nails add a subtle and sweet touch to the look.

Serpent Nails

Speaking of loud-and-proud manicure moments, Bieber took things to the next level with her mismatched serpentine nails. And we're not being cavalier with the word mismatched. From the colorful serpent scales to the vibrant daisies, there are so many different designs incorporated into this unique mani.

Blobby Tie Dye Nails

Clearly, Bieber is into mismatched nails just as much as her glazed manis. This take features an eclectic mix of designs, with each finger having a different look. Some feature colorful blobs, while others have tie-dye effects. The resulting look is playful and pretty.

Lemonade Nails

Bieber paired her rosy pink makeup with bold neon yellow nails. The bright, opaque hue, dubbed lemonade nails, made for a marked departure from her usual neutrals and nudes, though she kept a similar glazed finish for good measure.

Molten Metal Nails

Bieber's proven she's not afraid to try something out of the box. And in a move more aligned with the latter, she debuted a molten-metal mani. Her neon green nails are adorned with chrome metal decals. What makes this look even better is that her polish glows in the dark.

Red lips and red tips are the perfect pair. Bieber's perfectly festive look features a glazed French manicure with ruby-red tips. The look is chic and fun without feeling too kitschy.

Bieber channeled Audrey Hepburn at a glamorous party celebrating the reopening of Tiffany & Co's iconic 5th Avenue store—complete with a sleek updo and strand of pearls. And, as a nod to the luxury jewelry house, she went with a Tiffany-blue manicure. Of course, Bieber added her manicure calling card, a nearly chromatic, glazed finish on top, for good measure. Want to try the look for yourself? These manicures are the perfect inspo to get you started.

With a light pink, milky base, Bieber opted for hand-painted strawberry nail decals on her ring and middle fingers. It's an on-the-nose take on the strawberry girl trend that still feels super chic and cute.

Cherry French Nails

Cherry nail art is having a moment, and Bieber has gotten in on the trend. Her pearly French nails feature a single cherry on her ring finger. The dainty design is the perfect finishing touch.
