You can always count on J.Lo to bring her A-game — especially when it comes to nails. Created by her go-to nail artist, celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik, Lopez’s nails were prepped with the Tweezerman x Tom Bachik Ultimate Nail Care Set before getting coated with Aprés gel nail polish in “Vintage Carnation,” a deep and luscious nude base. Bachik then placed tiny diamonds in a line along the center of each nail for minimal shine.

Lizzo was — and always really — all good vibes, looking like a vibrant flower on the red carpet. To match the floral decor on her cape, the “Record of the Year” winner wore bright orange stiletto nails with stunning flower decals. Celebrity nail artist Eri Ishizu first molded 3D flowers on acrylic nails before painting on the OPI Gel Color “Silicon Valley Girl” to get that vibrant color. After curing the nails under UV light, Ishizu adds some crystals and seals them with the OPI GelColor Stay Strong Base Coat and the Stay Matte Top Coat.
