Hailey Bieber and Kourtney Kardashian Just Cosigned Summer's Juiciest Nail Trend
Yellow nails are having a moment.

So far, 2025 is all about one color: yellow. The year began with an almost universal obsession with butter yellow. The soft, creamy shade was all over the runway and our FYPs. Since then, it's evolved into lemon yellow, or "limoncello," thanks to Hailey Bieber. She recently released a new version of her viral Peptide Lip Tint in Lemontini ($16). Since then, people have been opting for this brighter, more saturated shade of yellow and incorporating it into their beauty routines in myriad ways. It's officially a limoncello summer.
One of the best ways to incorporate the limoncello trend into your beauty routine is via a clean, crisp manicure. At least that's what celebs seem to think. Bieber recently showed off a lemon-yellow manicure on Instagram while promoting her new lip product. Meanwhile, Kourtney Kardashian posted an Instagram story showing off her sunny French manicure. Even Charlize Theron is sporting yellow nails, having recently made an appearance in NYC wearing a cool, crescent-shaped design. So, yeah, it's safe to say that celebs are giving this juicy summer nail trend their stamp of approval. Keep scrolling for inspo and product picks.
Hailey Bieber's "lemon drop manicure" is so chic. It's difficult to see in this picture, but it features a base of sunny yellow nail polish overlaid with gray polka dots. (ICYMI, polka dots are another major summer nail trend.) If you want to try your hand at re-creating it, here's the tutorial from her nail artist, Zola Ganzorigt.
Kourtney Kardashian posted this picture to her Instagram Story, tagging nail artist Lisa Kon. She calls it a "butter yellow" manicure. To me, though, "butter yellow" and "limoncello" reference the same, albeit evolved, trend: a spotlight on yellow!
