The June 15 issue of OK! Magazine takes a look inside American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert's makeup bag. During the course of the show, he was known to wear plenty of dramatic eyeliner and black nail polish. He tells the magazine, "I like OPI; they have these really cool dark colors."

Personally, I like the rocker look of black or silver polish on guys. With all the cool black, silver, copper, and gold shades, and the new matte colors out right now, there are definitely plenty of options.

One of the outtakes from his Rolling Stone (main image) magazine shoot would make a perfect cover of NAILS, don't you think?
