Grammy Nails OpenerBy far the best when it comes to outstanding red carpet nails is the Grammy Awards, and this year certainly didn’t disappoint!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Besties Rihanna and Katy Perry showed off their stunning nails courtesy of celeb tech Kimmie Kyees. (Well, we know for certain that Kyees did Perry’s nails, and judging by last year, she most likely painted Rihanna’s as well).

It seemed the theme for this duo was coif matching lacquer. Rihanna’s almond-shaped tips were metallic gold, just like her new mane. And blue bobbed bombshell Perry sported a conservative length azure-tipped French.

Winner of the Country Album of the Year award, Lady Antebellum member Hillary Scott showed off a luxe Velvet Manicure when holding up her winning statue.

Man-icurist to the stars Tom Bachik created the soft look by finishing off the songstress’s maroon manicure with Chanel’s Velvet Matte top coat.

Last but not least was our favorite set of the evening. This artist not only took home six awards, but won our hearts with her stunning nail style. Adele’s Christian Louboutin-inspired manicure forced us to Facebook them on the spot!

Mike Pocock, creative director at Ciaté, matched the artist’s nails to her glittery red-soled shoes: nails were coated in multi-colored glitter and the underside was painted crimson.

Adele is certainly NAILPRO’s winner with her fabulously fashion-forward nails that became one of the most popular post-show beauty topics! —Stephanie Yaggy
