This TikTok Video Uses No Name Peanut Butter To Make Acrylic Nails & We're Lost For Words

They're nut bad, actually...

Managing Editor, Canada

Brace yourselves, Canada! This viral TikTok video uses No Name peanut butter to create acrylic nails and it's somewhere between incredible and possibly the worst thing ever.

TikTok user ilysmnails describes herself as a "creative nail artist" and she's clearly not afraid to be a little nutty with her styles.

In the past, she's created acrylic nail designs using everything from macaroni and taco shells to Lego and even colouring pencils.

Smooth Peanut 🥜 Butter 🧈 Nail 💅🏽 #nails #nailtutorial #acrylicnails #beautyhacks

However, one of her most-watched videos of all time involves No Name brand peanut butter. Yikes.

In the short clip, ilysmnails uses a scoop of the smooth spread to create the colour of her acrylic nail. While it's a little icky to watch, it's hard to deny that the end result is colourful and fall-inspired, if a little peanut-y underneath.

As of September 14, the clip had been viewed on TikTok over 20 million times and has almost 15,000 comments and responses.

While some viewers admitted, "that's a pretty color tbh," others shared concerns about the condiment getting "mouldy" or smelling gross.

"This irritates me only because I get bugged when I get food under my nails," another added.

Whatever floats your boat, eh?
