With the first day of spring forthcoming on Friday, March 20, you may find yourself packing away your Lincoln Park After Dark in favor of some lighter nail hues. And while soft pinks and buttery yellows may be your first choice for your springtime manicure, Hailey Bieber is making the case for an entirely different hue: Rusty red.

Bieber stepped out on the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscar Party red carpet on Sunday looking like a complete vision from head to toe. While clad in an embroidered animal print Giorgio Armani Privé gown, styled by Andrew Mukamal, the 29-year-old Rhode founder accented her glamorous look with an eye-catching manicure, courtesy of celebrity nail artist Zola Ganzorigt.

And luckily for fans, Ganzorigt broke down exactly what she used to achieve her client’s custom red nail color for Sunday’s after-party at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. In an Instagram post on March 16, the manicurist revealed that she used equal parts of three OPI nail polishes to create Bieber’s mani.

“1:1:1 ratio of Big Apple Red, Endless Sun-ner, and Espresso Your Inner Self,” she explained in her caption. Shop each of the polishes below to DIY the celebrity-approved look at home.

While this bronze polish creates gorgeous results on its own, it is key to bringing forth the rust-like undertones in Bieber’s manicure.

A dark brown color reminiscent of your daily espresso, this neutral-hued OPI polish is the final component of Ganzorigt’s custom color for Bieber.

We’re not the only ones looking to quickly replicate this warm red manicure, as several of the professional nail artist’s followers piped into the comments section with praise.

“Stunning 🔥🔥,” one user wrote, letting a pair of fire emojis speak for themselves.

“so beautiful😍❤️,” another gushed.

“The perfect rusty red shade ❤️✨,” the official OPI account added.

Yesterday, Ganzorigt posted a second carousel of images that showcased Bieber’s Oscar night manicure. “This look deserved double posting ♥️,” she noted in her caption.
