Selena Gomez knows there's a perfect red nail polish for every season, and the pop star just debuted her apparent choice for spring 2025.
This fall, it was Aprés Nail's classic candy apple red, Hearts and Likes. In winter, she gave merlot a sparkling upgrade, courtesy of CND World’s textured shade Needles & Red. And now? Well, let's just say her latest red manicure references an iconic shoe.
On March 13, Selena Gomez and fiancé Benny Blanco dropped the music video for their latest release, “Sunset Blvd,” and celebrity nail artist Tom Bachik revealed the exact shade of nail polish he used to achieve her“red bottom red" manicure. (And yes, those are Gomez's natural nails.)
According to his Instagram post, Bachik utilized his own brand of Click Color gel pens in the shade Stiletto, yet another apparent reference to the Christian Louboutin heel that inspired Gomez's manicure.
“Okay, but can we take a moment to appreciate these PERFECT red nails?!” one fan commented on another one of Bachik's posts. "Selena always slays, but your work is next level."
While that particular shade won't be available on Bachik's website until April 21, there are plenty of vibrant crimson reds that fit the bill. In fact, Christian Louboutin sells their own polish inspired by their signature soles, Rouge Louboutin 001. Sure, $50 is expensive for nail polish but it's much cheaper than an actual pair of So Kate stilettos.

Just last spring, Gomez rocked Essie's Gel Couture shade Rock The Runway to match her custom Giambattista Valli gown at Cannes Film Festival. “Nothing says Cannes like a Parisian red,” Bachik captioned an Instagram post of the look in May 2024.
Clearly, the same could be said for spring 2025.

Nailed It
We might not be able to make a crudités platter, but staring at a screenshot of Markle’s nails and comparing with swatches at the nail salon is something we can all reasonably execute.
