Mycah Dior, Erivo’s nail artist, shared a breakdown of how she creates the showstopping, nail designs, which took four hours to create. “This whimsical set is inspired by Wicked of course. It brings Elphaba and Glinda’s worlds to life,” Dior explains of Erivo’s nails for the New York City premiere of Wicked, held at the Museum of Modern Art on Thursday (Nov. 14).
“Green and pink colors embody their contrasting personalities, with Elphaba’s vivid green skin and Glinda’s soft, light-hearted aura. Hand-sculpted, painted 3D eyes add a bold, mysterious element, while a hand-drawn clock captures the timeless magic of the story,” Dior continued. “Every detail adds to the enchanting, whimsical feel of this set.”
To bring the look to life, Dior used several colors from the Wicked collection including Witch O’Clock, Ozitively Elphaba, Let’s Rejoicify along with a few other OPI polishes: Mod About You, Alpine Snow and Black Onyx.
Nail art isn’t the only way the Tony-winning actress has paid homage to film’s pink and green theme. Erivo and co-star Ariana Grande have been wearing green and pink to represent their characters Elphaba and Glinda (Grande also uses products from her r.e.m. beauty x Wicked collection for her red-carpet glam).
The musical adaptation starring Erivo, Grande, Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh, Marissa Bode and Jeff Goldblum, hits theaters on Friday (Nov. 22).
The Wicked x OPI collection is available at retailers such as Walmart, Amazon and Ulta Beauty.
