Kylie Jenner’s Deep ’90s French Manicure Is Taking Me Back – See Photo

The French manicure’s renaissance has been going strong for years now, and with it have come so many takes: bright tips, three-dimensional details, micro-tips, and so much more. But if you got your first set of acrylics as a teen in the ‘90s, the French manicure variant that’s indelibly etched into your brain is one with particularly thick, white tips. And it seems Kylie Jenner is helping to make it one of the more in-demand versions of the French manicure.

Jenner posted a couple of photo carousels to her Instagram grid between last night and this afternoon, the first of which says, “living my best life,” in the caption. Living said best life appears to include wearing all black, posing on the passenger side of a large vehicle, and wearing a flawless, ’90s-inspired French mani.

Nail artist Zola Ganzorigt shared one of the same photos to her own Instagram grid—a selfie of Jenner showing off the manicure: long-but-not-too-long, oval nails with a traditional, sheer pink base and white tips that cover nearly half the length of the nail. Ganzorigt calls it a “deep ’90s French.”

And yes, that’s how we wore our French manicures back in the day. This is exactly what my nails looked like (albeit more square) for my senior prom in spring 1997. And while I don’t have photo proof readily on hand, Ganzorigt included her inspiration—the June 1997 cover of Nails magazine—in one of the carousel slides.
