One thing about us at NewBeauty? We’re beauty detectives. When a celebrity drops a bathroom selfie, you can bet we’re zooming in to see what skin-care products are on their shelf. And when it comes to their latest beauty campaigns? You know we’re obsessively studying every detail—like the exact shade of nail polish Hailee Steinfeld is wearing in her new Neutrogena campaign. We’re pretty sure it’s Aprés Nail in Fairy Wings ($15) and Forgotten Film ($15) —or at least, that combo is pretty damn close to what she’s wearing. As TikTok-trend obsessives might say, it’s “very demure.”
The 27-year-old actress revealed the campaign imagery on Wednesday, August 14, posing with the brand’s new moisturizer. In the photo, she smizes for the camera with the product in hand, offering a subtle peek at her pinky-nude manicure. “Dreams do come true!!,” she captioned the photo. “Thrilled to be the new face of @Neutrogena Collagen Bank! An incredible moisturizer that keeps your skin so plump and glowy.✨It’s out now, and trust me, you’ll want to try it.”
Lucky for us, her manicurist, Tom Bachik, shared more details about the manicure on his Instagram grid. While it seems this manicure was for a different event, it bears a striking resemblance to the one in her Neutrogena campaign. In his caption, Bachik revealed the secret to achieving the perfect pinky-nude combo. After prepping her nails with his go-to Tweezerman tools, he shared, “I painted a coat of @apresnailofficial Fairy Wings and a thin coat of Forgotten Film on top to warm it up just a bit,” he wrote. “It created the perfect pinky nude combo.”
