Causes of yellow nails?
Using an acetone nail polish remover is also a known culprit in exacerbating the yellow tint. "I never recommend using straight acetone on a nail, ever. "There's no reason to." Always reach for a non-acetone nail polish remover when taking off your color.
If you’re a smoker, chances are your nails are yellowed from nicotine staining. Yet another good reason to give up the habit!
Another common cause of yellow nails is a fungal infection. Fungus-infected nails can turn all sorts of colors and may also cause other nail issues such as flaking, peeling, and an unpleasant odor.
