Fall’s biggest nail trend? Beverage-inspired nails. Don’t believe me? Just ask Selena Gomez.
The Only Murders in the Building star, whose mother Mandy Teefey was just named a Glamour Women of the Year honoree, debuted delicious apple cider nails just in time for spooky season. Created by her go-to nail artist Tom Bachik, whose clients also include Jennifer Lopez and Camila Cabello, Gomez’s fall-friendly mani came just days after Heidi Klum showed off her own take on drink-inspired looks with vanilla chai nails. See? We’re sensing a theme here!
While both looks are inspired by autumnal aesthetics, Gomez’s is a much more dark feminine energy-inspired take on the trend. Gomez’s mani, which Bachik posted to his Instagram, is a deep shade of chrome red, falling somewhere between burgundy and plum.
Feeling inspired? Honestly, same. Here’s what you need to know to get the look: In the past, Bachik has used Essie’s Licorice for a similar deep plum style. We also know that the celebrity manicurist always preps his clients cuticles and nails with Tweezerman x Tom Bachik Ultimate Nail Care Set.

While we don’t know exactly which polish Bachik and Selena Gomez used to create this apple cider-inspired look, you can DIY the apple cider manicure with tons of similar options.
Our favorite picks include Essie’s Berry Naughty, JinSoon’s Audacity. or OPI’s Malaga Wine. For a slightly more dark feminine vibe, opt for Essie’s Wicked, Sally Beauty’s Pat on the Black, or China Glaze’s Urban Night.
Once you’ve picked your base shade, follow up with a chrome top coat like Londontown’s Starry Chrome Glaze, and you’re good to go apple picking—or apple cider tasting—and match your mani accordingly. Yum!
