Why try yellow nails?
Yellow nails are such a fun way to add playful pizzazz to fingertips. Maybe you don’t love wearing yellow through your clothing or outfit, but painting it onto your nails is a fun way to try out the hue.
Plus, there is a broad range of yellow shades to choose from. If you’re feeling bold and vibrant, try a bright neon yellow. Want something more subtle? Try a pastel, butter yellow shade. There are also mustard yellow hues, pale yellow and more.
As a bonus, color psychology shows that yellow can promote feelings of joy, energy and cheer. Channeling these positive feelings just through your manicure is such an easy way to make your day just that much better.

Yellow French tips and lemons
French manicures are always a classic, but sometimes it’s fun to change it up by adding some color. Add a micro yellow French tip under the classic white French tips, and then create an accent nail with lemon nail art and polka dots.
Bright yellow nails with florals
The bright pink and blue hues of these flowers make the yellow shade “pop.”
Pastel yellow nails with glitter accents
If you want subtle nail art, try pastel yellow swirls with sparkly accents, like these nails by @nailsbypaulin. Both silver and gold would work well for the sparkles.
Butter yellow nails
Butter yellow is all the rage at the moment—why not try it out with your mani? Plus, this nail look by @sammimay.beauty doesn’t require any nail art.
Yellow lemon nails
Hints of citrus are perfect for the spring and summer. Paint some pretty lemons over a nude base for the accent nails and paint the rest of the nails a solid yellow, like this look by @nailartbychlo.
Yellow and black nails
Adding black accents to a yellow manicure creates a cool contrast and makes your nails stand out even more.
Yellow chrome nails
Chrome powder makes nails look so shiny, glossy and elevated—and the best part is that chrome works for just about any color, including yellow! We love these chrome butter yellow nails by @allnailss._.
Yellow floral French tips
Instead of the classic white French tip, try a floral French mani! These nails by @glowbygracee feature the cutest yet simple flowers and a gorgeous, subtly-shimmery nude base.
Yellow bow + flower nails
Dainty bows always make such a chic statement on a manicure and are an easy way to add a little something extra. These nails by @nailzkatkat mesh flowers and bows into the cutest spring mani.
3D yellow nails
Add some texture to your manicure with 3D nail art, like @sandynailsbeautysalon did with these yellow French tips.
