Zendaya Just Wore the Perfect Clean-Girl Mani Colour—and It's Just £12

Here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , we're just a little bit *obsessed* with Zendaya. Her beauty looks are always on point for any red carpet or film premiere. I love her for the fact that her makeup usually always reflects the theme of the film, from her Spiderman eyeliner to her ethereal Dune premiere hair and makeup. Zendaya and her glam team clearly always go the extra mile. And as for her new bob haircut? I can't get enough.
Now, it's quite rare that we get a glimpse behind the scenes of the beauty products that Zendaya really uses to prep for her events. So, when I saw that her nail technician, Marina Dobyk, posted a video of Zendaya's recent manicure, I needed to know the full deets. Thankfully, she met the needs of this very nosy beauty editor and listed the exact products that she used—I practically ran to the caption.
The pretty nail colour used on Zendaya's nails is CND's Backyard Nupitals, a semisheer pink that makes anyone's nails instantly look neat and healthy. While her nail technician used the gel version of the hue, you can buy the Vinylux Longwear Polish version (the gel version is for professional use only), and it comes in at just £12.
The exact shade worn by Zendaya.
I've long been a fan of CND's nail products, so I'm going to be adding this one to my collection. The Vinylux Gel Effect Top Coat Nail Varnish is my holy grail nail topcoat—no lie. It makes nail polish last all week and even makes any standard nail polish look like gel. And as for the Solar Oil, it's one of my favourite nail oils—it quite literally transformed my weak nails and helped them grow long and strong, and I always have a bottle on my nightstand.
Dobyk also shared the full routine of products that she used to create Zendaya's glossy manicure, including the exact cuticle clippers used and Byredo hand lotion and Diptyque oil.
Clean-girl nails have been dominating for a while. Both understated and expensive-looking, the sheer wash of milky pink suits everyone, and is a failsafe bet if you cannot decide what shade to go with in the salon. It's also a mani colour that will take you through work through to your weekend. If you're looking for more understated pink shades, I've rounded up some of the best below.
