Kudo went on to share a breakdown on her Instagram, describing how to get the look.
“1. I blended her cuticle growth line—a previous set of Gel X—with “cuticle bit” from Apres.
2. I buffed the surface of the set, cleansed with wipes, then applied one coat of “gel coat” and cured.
3. I custom mixed three colors: “Twin Flame” “This Lifetime” and “Cardinal” from Apres Valentine’s palette to make a perfect Cafe Au Lait color to match her gown, and applied on her base gel cured nails, then cured.
4. I applied “Top Gelcoat” then cured.
5. I applied “Spring Steps” cuticle oil for moisturizing and extra shine,” she wrote.
The bad news is, the Valentine’s palette is sold out, so unless you already have it, you won’t be able to replicate Hadid’s shade exactly. Plus, the palette was created for nail pros or proper at-home enthusiasts, so unless you’re blessed with artistic talent, these latte nails are a stretch to re-create at home.
Instead, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite latte nail shades below, so you can paint them on for a similar Bella Hadid look.
