Naomi Watts’s Black Square Nails Are the Minimal Winter Manicure of My Dreams

Naomi Watts, you really need to stop ending up on my mood boards like this. On November 8, the actress was photographed in Beverly Hills arriving at Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party. Almost all of Hollywood was in attendance, but it was Watts (and by extension, Sarah Paulson’s) nails that caught my eye among all the looks of the night. Let’s get into it.

Watts appeared at the event with her friend and co-star Sarah Paulson, with whom she stars in their new show All’s Fair. For the party, Watts kept to her signature beauty formula: a short flipped bob, dewy, glowing skin, and a pop of color on the lips. However, her manicure told a different story from the rest of her bright, uplifting makeup. Watts’s nails were cut and filed into a short square shape before being painted a jet-black color. A glossy top coat added a beautiful shine to the manicure, maintaining the dewy vibe she was going for and making the look cohesive.
