I’ll take Kylie Jenner’s insect nail art or Hailey Bieber’s farmer’s market manicure over a plain, pale pink polish any day of the week. But if beauty's past has taught me anything, it's that sweet little treats inspire the summer nail polish trends with the most staying power. Glazed donuts, strawberry shortcake, and even blueberry milk have been deemed some of the most popular shades or color concoctions of the decade.
At their core, these labels are new names for chrome, pink, and pale blue; they're just basic summer nail colors. I’m not mad at them, but I could use more excitement. Something fresh! Something fun! A marginally different and out-of-the-box shade that I can spread across my fingertips. If my prior puns haven’t given it away, I want butter yellow nail polish.
