Hailey Bieber is reminiscing about her recent trip to South Korea, a jaunt spent shopping, drinking crispy Diet Cokes, cafe and bar-hopping with pals. What we spotted, though, in her IG dump? Some spotty, swirling nail art.
“Yes I do do this nail art on myself and yes I will be taking appointments,” she joked on Instagram Stories. The Rhode beauty mogul sported a mid-length, almond-shaped nail (her signature silhouette of choice) in a milky latte brown shade, with watercolor-like blue circles in the middle of each digit. Some of the blue dots were lightly diffused, with swirling tails.

It’s a low-effort nail design, requiring little need for much precision or technique, while still looking done and polished. A juicy topcoat keeps it neat and unchippable. It hits all the right notes of a good Hailey Bieber manicure, too: clean, but statement-making. And it’s also quite practical: the base shade is earthy and natural, so any growth that might have happened while Bieber was the trip (when she might not necessarily have had the time to get her nails as regularly done) wouldn’t have been so noticeable.
Hailey’s Bieberchella nails were imbued with meaning: pink with black dots representing the Swag 1 and 2 albums, green with yellow inspired by the Brazilian flag, and red with white inspired by the Canadian flag.
