While she built her brand around being “Short ‘n Sweet,” Sabrina Carpenter’s career has been anything but slow and timid. Just over a year after Carpenter released her Grammy Award-winning album “Short ‘n Sweet” and embarked on a sequin- and innuendo-filled tour, the “Espresso” singer has announced the release of her next album, “Manchild,” coming this August. And fans haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. Specifically, we’re obsessed with her oh-so-Sabrina music video for the album’s titular song. If you, too, have been watching the “Manchild” video on repeat, we know exactly what nail polishes were used to create her adorable, minimalist baby pink polka dot manicure for the iconic shoot.
The Step-by-Step Tutorial for Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Manchild’ Nails
When we think of pop princess Sabrina Carpenter’s signature look, her bombshell blonde hair, babydoll blush and fluttery eyes tend to come to mind first. Whether she’s on tour or on set for a new video, Carpenter is almost always serving up under-the-radar nail bangers, like her look for the country western-inspired “Manchild” video.
To start, celebrity manicurist to the stars, Zola Ganzorigt, used a coat of OPI’s Passion ($14) to coat her almond-shaped nails in a muted, pinky glaze. She then layered on OPI’s Bare My Soul ($12) to add more pigment and opacity. For the polka dot design on top, Ganzorigt used OPI’s Alpine Snow ($12) on a dotting tool and hand-created the minimalist yet totally adorable style.
