If there’s one rule most award-show attendees follow, it’s this one: Even if there’s no chance you’re going to be photographed holding a trophy of some sort, make sure your nails look like you’re ready to win something. That’s why the celebrities who showed up to Sunday night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards — whether nominated, presenting, or simply enjoying the event — had some of the prettiest manicures of the season.
With our eagle eyes and a little help from the nail artists who created the looks, we found some of the best nail looks on on the SAG red carpet. And if one thing is clear from what we’ve observed, it’s that nails of all lengths are enjoying an array of colours. In fact, some of the shortest nails wore some of the boldest shades, like Gwendoline Christie’s gown-matching black and Helena Bonham Carter’s cornflower blue. Meanwhile, nude hues were upgraded with some sparkle, as seen on Jennifer Lopez and Joey King.
Below, check out the hands that held our attention and inspired our next trip to the nail salon.
