Butter Glazed Frenchies Are Summer’s Prettiest Nail Trend

Earlier this year, butter yellow was declared the shade of spring/summer. We’ve seen it in fashion, hair colours and on our nails, but “butter glazed Frenchies” are the mani spin-off we didn’t know we needed.

The colour has captured the attention of designers Loewe, Zimmermann and Givenchy, who all featured the shade in their recent collections. Meanwhile buttery blonde has been adopted by It girls looking for a softer take on bright blonde – Leonie Hanne, Sofia Richie Grainge, Beyonce and Sabrina Carpenter are fans. As for nails, Selena Gomez gave butter blonde her seal of approval and we’ve seen it dominating our FYP ever since, so it was only time before we saw people getting even more creative with the colour across nails.

What are butter glazed Frenchies?

Butter glazed Frenchies take three trending manis and combine them all in one nail design. As we’ve established, butter yellow is the shade to know right now, but it’s been combined with the classic French tip (which will never not look chic) and a glazed or chrome finish, which is the super-trend that keeps giving.

How to wear butter glazed Frenchies?

We’ve seen the style worn long, short, rounded, pointed, almond and with skinny French tips or chunky ‘90s tips so there’s plenty of ways to personalise it to you. Or, if you want a block colour, we’ve included our favourite all-over butter glazed nails, too.
