Picture it: It's 1995. Your mom has dragged you to her favorite nail salon so she can get a manicure before your family's tropical vacation. You look around at the posters of beautiful hands all over the walls, entranced by the most shimmery and whimsical nail designs, only to glance over at your mother's hands and see that she has opted for… a French manicure. Doesn't she know she's about to be relaxing under a palm tree? This calls for a fun, on-theme set!

Fast-forward to 2025, and Halsey knows what's up.

On Tuesday, November 18, nail artist Natalie Minerva posted an Instagram Reel showing off her latest work on the singer-songwriter. The close-up video reveals a magically retro, ready-for-a-getaway manicure.

“TROPICAL MOONSTONE 🌴🌺🐚 for vacayyyyyy! Have the best time!!!! ❤️❤️❤️,” she wrote in the caption, giving the look the perfect name.

Each softly almond-shaped nail starts with a pale pink base that may seem not unlike what you'd see in a traditional French manicure, but it's actually a combination of Bare My Soul by OPI and a custom mixed purple pearl sheen on top. “I then made my own seafoam cateye tips by adding some cateye powder into a base gel,” Minerva tells Allure. “I applied it to the tip of the nail and faded it out with a clean up brush, then used a magnet to bring the flash of the cateye to the very edge of the nail.”

And to really give the manicure a very '90s tropical feel, Minerva added chrome accents in fuchsia and golden hues: tiny palm trees on a ring finger and pinky, and a hibiscus on a pointer finger. “Lastly, I applied OPI Super Gloss Non Wipe Top Coat so the chrome stays chrome and locks in the set with something strong.”

Although we don't know where Halsey is headed on holiday—wouldn't it be funny if it was actually, like, Iceland?—her nails no doubt that she's off the clock and in vacation mode, hopefully for as long as this manicure will last.
