Kylie Jenner's Chrome Dagger Nails Are No Joke

After months—nay, years—of wondering where all of the impractically long, wackily patterned manicures had gone, the evidence points to nail art making a slow but steady comeback. Is it sprinkled in among an otherwise still-very-strong celebrity affinity for neutral nails? Absolutely. But even some stars who've come to favor basic French manicures have made room in their manicure calendar for playing with color, shapes, and even sharpness again. Take Kylie Jenner, for example.
In the new Khy campaign announcing a collaboration with designer Grace Ling, Jenner is seen wearing sleek black, gray, and white ensembles with smooth metallic accents. “Defined by GRACE LING’s signature piercing detail, each piece transforms classic silhouettes into bold statements 🩶 i’m so excited about this dream collab,” Jenner wrote when she posted about the collection on Monday.
And pairing perfectly with those “piercings” is Jenner's manicure, crafted by nail artist Zola Ganzorigt. Each extra-long nail is carved into a dangerously pointy tip and painted in a silverly, metallic finish that truly makes them look like daggers.
Ganzorigt tells Allure that she used OPI's aptly named Chrome Clawz for the base and silver chrome powder on top for that liquid-metal look.

Prior to this stabby set, Jenner was seen wearing a '90s-throwback deep French manicure, proving you don’t have to be just Team Neutral Nails or just Team Nail Art. In fact, it seems safe to say we're entering one of our diverse manicure eras, and Jenner is pointing the way—pretty literally.
