Selena Gomez is known for experimenting with her nail looks, and her latest manicure might be one of her biggest revelations to date. After showing off bold colors like cobalt blue nails, peach-champagne nails, and cherry-coded nails, Gomez has been on a minimalist streak, wearing lavender milk nails, soap nails, and now a clear glass manicure.

On May 1 the Rare Beauty founder hosted the brand’s annual Mental Health Summit in Los Angeles. For the occasion, Gomez and her longtime manicurist Tom Bachik decided to bring the clean-girl look to the next level, opting for perfectly manicured nails topped with clear nail polish—that’s it. To elongate the nails, Gomez paired the noncolor with her signature long almond nails. The result? An understated mani that resembles clear polished glass.

To complete the look, Gomez wore a crisp white blazer, light-wash high-waist jeans, a white shirt, and chunky rings (alongside her stunning marquise diamond engagement ring from fiancé Benny Blanco, of course.)

As for her glam, Gomez wore a full face of (what else?) Rare Beauty with spring-ready pinks on her cheeks and lids, and a glossy rose lip gloss. She seems to be growing out the Old Hollywood bob she wore throughout awards season, her brunette hair reaching lob territory past her shoulders. Will we be seeing the return of long-haired Selena Gomez? Only time will tell.
