Butter Yellow Nails are here to Stay

Kendall Jenner Says Butter Yellow Isn’t Going Anywhere, per Her Manicure

"In store for us now is the always effortless cool girl’s butter yellow manicure. While butter yellow really took off in 2024, popping up everywhere from the runways to our nails (and with everyone from Selena Gomez to Simone Ashley signing on to the shade), some have been wondering if the muted pastel color is officially overplayed. According to Jenner, the answer is a resounding no.

“The sunny colour is nothing but basic: Though it manages to match with everything, it also manages to never be boring. And with butter yellow solidifying itself as a color so popular that some are even calling it a neutral (its mellow versatility has us in agreement), it’s proving itself as a great transitional shade as we head into fall. While brighter summer manicure colors will likely take a backseat in the coming weeks and months, being swapped out for classic moodier fall nail polishes, butter yellow is one of those colors that can, and will, cross seasonal boundaries. While it matches a summer picnic in July, it also matches a cozy sweater in October. So it’s no wonder Kendall Jenner is on board with the trend.”
