Ombre Nails

A classic manicure is great, but yellow ombre nails are a great design for the summer season.

Butterflies

To add a vibrant appeal to your perfect yellow manicure, opt for butterfly accents.

When the art is this intricate, it’s best to keep the rest of the nail nude or pastel yellow to let the butterflies soar.
