Sabrina Carpenter's Frosty "Fairytale" Manicure Is a Spring Dream

It's been the spring of Sabrina Carpenter, and the forecast says that we're moving right along into the summer of Sabrina Carpenter as well. That's just that her espresso—we can't get enough.

Always good for a pop hit and some beauty inspiration, the 24-year-old recently showed off a new manicure that—you're just going to have to live with the "Espresso" comments—has us wrapped around her fingerrrr(s). On Monday, May 6, the 24-year-old showed up at the 2024 Met Gala (she arrived late, 'cause she's a singerrrr) with a frosty blue manicure with rhinestones, the perfect complement to her blue Oscar de la Renta gown.

Almond shaped and medium-long in length, each nail is painted the same shimmery baby blue shade—I'd call it a perfect Cinderella blue (there's a little magic entwined in the princess's dress, hence the glimmer). Tiny rhinestones were then affixed to each nail in a polka-dot pattern, spread evenly apart but missing any other obvious rhyme or reason. It's simply a fun pattern for a fun pattern's sake.

The work of Carpenter's regular nail artist, Zola Ganzorigt, the manicure was created with OPI products. “Sabrina has been wearing a lot of blue lately, which is a great color for her and really enhances her eyes," the manicurist shared. "The black and blue fairytale gown she wore is so elegant and classic. To complement the look, I used OPI It’s a Boy! ($12) with Chrome Effects in ‘Tin Man Can’ and adorned the nails with rhinestones.” 

To kick off the manicure, Ganzorigt prepped Carpenter's nails and applied one coat of OPI's salon favorite GelColor Stay Classic Base Coat (if you're trying this at home, grab their Natural Nail Base Coat, $12, instead). Next came two coats of It's a Boy!, and then a solid rub of chrome powder. (DIY-ers have an easier option: OPI Infinite Shine polish in Pearlcore, $14.)

After placing the rhinestones, she finished off the look by applying OPI GelColor Stay Shiny Top Coat. OPI Top Coat ($12) will also do just fine.

Is it that sweet? We guess so! Or actually, we know so.
