True fans of Kylie Jenner [2] know she takes her manicures very seriously. In the past, she's rocked neon stars, dreamy pastels, dainty designs, and perfect french tips. But despite her love for all things a little extra, she kept it simple this weekend [3] for her sister Kourtney Kardashian's wedding to Travis Barker [4]. She posted a photo of her nail design on Instagram [5] featuring almond-shaped acrylics with a silver chrome french design, along with other photos from the celebratory weekend in Portofino, Italy [6].

Chrome nails [7] have been trending as of late on the red carpet, with celebrities like Dua Lipa [8], Zendaya [9], and Rihanna [10] all rocking the look. However, this is the first time we've seen them on Jenner, and now we know they're officially wedding-approved.

For those who've never heard of the trend, celebrity manicurist and educator Julie Kandalec [11] previously told POPSUGAR exactly what makes chrome manicures so special. "Chrome nails are a type of nail design or polish that uses special ingredients in chrome powder to give a metallic, reflective, mirrored finish to the nail," she said, noting that colors like rose gold and silver seem especially popular right now.

The look is often created using a special powder, which was initially inaccessible to the general public. "When it first came out, the chrome pigment was extremely hard to find and was very expensive — about $25 for a very small bottle," Kandalec said. Since then, chrome products have become much easier to find, and now people can re-create a look like Jenner's at home.

Now that Jenner has debuted her own chrome nail art, this could be a whole new beauty era for her and her manicurist. This nail trend is all about keeping things polished (literally). Check out Jenner's wedding nails [12] ahead.
