Lady Gaga's beauty looks never fail — the singer and actress is always someone everyone waits impatiently to see on the red carpet thanks to her incredible — and often bold — looks. And though her stunning white Dior gown at the 2019 SAG Awards wasn't quite as over-the-top as some of her past outfits, Gaga complemented the dress with a makeup look that was decidedly more bold: dark red lipstick and nails to match, breaking an unspoken beauty "rule" in the best way possible and creating a look that undoubtedly leaves many scrambling to recreate it. While you're probably not going to easily find a similar dress to help you copy her style, there are still plenty of nail polishes like Lady Gaga's you can shop to easily channel this beautiful SAG Awards look in your daily life.

Gaga's makeup artist, Sarah Tanno, was kind enough to bless the world with a full breakdown of the star's beauty look, which features several steps worth of Marc Jacobs Beauty products — including exactly how to achieve that beautiful dark red lip (which took no less than three separate products to create). Celebrity manicurist Miho Okowara completed the look with $9 Essie nail polish in the "Berry Naughty" shade that perfectly matched Gaga's stunning red lipstick.

Of course, there are plenty of other nail polish shades out there that mirror the deep red of her nails almost perfectly. Tom Ford's Nail Lacquer, $37, in "Bordeaux Lust" is an equally stunning and deep hue that would complete Gaga's matching lips-and-nails look, as is Givenchy Beauty's Le Vernis Nail Polish in Grenat Initie for $24. And since her lipstick does veer a little darker, you could also opt for a shade like Jinsoon's Audacity, $18, for a deeper color to pair with it.

Awards season has just begun, and A Star Is Born has already started to take home some well-deserved awards — meaning Gaga will undoubtedly continue to show up throughout the season with a look more incredible than the last. The Golden Globes brought a blue Valentino dress and matching hair from the star, and the SAG Awards offered daring makeup shortly thereafter. If her first few looks are any indication, Gaga's awards show appearances this year will only continue to get better, leaving fans waiting not so patiently to see what she'll wear next. So, until the Grammy Awards on Feb. 10, let the guessing games begin.
