She Might Be King Kylie, But Her “Crystal Candy” Mani Is Fit For A Princess

As goes Kylie Jenner, so goes the rest of the internet. The baby sister of the KarJenner krew is right up there with pal Hailey Bieber when it comes to social media impact; when she’s into something, it won’t be long until you start seeing it everywhere. And right now, Jenner is really into bedazzling. This past spring, she hit Game 5 of the NBA Finals in embellished denim; earlier this month, she celebrated her 29th birthday with a gemstone-filled, “princess kitty”-themed birthday; and now, she’s rocking a “crystal candy” mani that’s bound to become a mani mood board staple.

The Kylie Cosmetics founder shared snaps and a video of her new set on her Instagram Story (later added to the grid by her manicurist, Zola Ganzorigt). The medium-length, oval manicure features a milky pink base with two chunky crystal gemstones affixed to each finger. While some of the stones are heart-shaped or circular, most are princess-cut, in a variety of fun colors, some gemstone-coded, others less so.

As noted, Jenner has been very into bedazzling this year; indeed, many of her 2026 manis have featured some sort of sparkle, including the blinged-out watermelon nails she wore on a brand trip to Turks & Caicos this spring, the gemstone flowers she donned at Bieberchella, and the sparkly French tips she rocked in April.

What sets this latest set apart, however, is the size of the gems. The chunky, oversized crystals — which also served as the central motif of her b-day festivities — feel like the latest evolution of the aesthetic.
