Even earlier than Hailey Bieber declared it “cinnamon roll season”, we’d noticed cinnamon glazed nails creeping up the hot list in nail trends. It tracks. Food and drink-based aesthetics have been leading beauty trends for the past few seasons (see: strawberry girl makeup, latte makeup, peach girl makeup and espresso makeup).

What are cinnamon glazed nails?
As the name suggests, the trend takes its inspiration from the signature toasted brown tone of cinnamon spice. The shade has a bit of orange in the undertone to keep it feeling warm and cosy, which is why it’s perfect for autumn and winter.
For a 2024 twist, we’ve seen the colour get a literal glow-up with chrome glazed finishes and velvety cat-eye metallics that add an iced sparkle, hence: cinnamon glazed nails.
Hailey Bieber teased her latest Rhode launch, the Cinnamon Roll Peptide Lip Tint, with a cinnamon glazed mani of her own a few weeks ago, but before the shade had a name, those toasted tones were building a fan base with our favourite nail artists serving up stunning renditions.
