Nicole Kidman Brought the Butter Yellow Trend to Her Summer Hair Color

Key Takeaways

• Nicole Kidman announced her role as Clé de Peau Beauté Global Brand Ambassador with a golden suit and matching hair color.
• The buttery blonde shade was the exact color of Kerrygold.

It’s been a big week for Nicole Kidman. She went back to a place of Gilly Owens with copper bangs on the Practical Magic sequel (!) set and had a huuuuge partnership to announce. What do you think she’ll do this weekend to wrap it all up?!

On Thursday, July 24, Kidman was named Clé de Peau Beauté’s new global brand ambassador. In the announcement post, the 58-year-old was dressed in a metallic power suit and corresponding silk blouse. Her hair was similarly golden… in an Irish butter kind of way.

Nicole Kidman’s Buttery Blonde Hair

Cle de Peau

Worn long and straight with a middle part, Kidman’s famous hair was dyed the brightest and butteriest shade of blonde we’ve ever seen her in. It’s no secret that she likes to switch her color up and looks gorgeous in any shade, from icy white to a nice honey. But *this one* is pure sunshine.

The warm and creamy color had slightly darker roots that reminded me of that classic ’90s Nicole Kidman strawberry shade while the rest of her locks featured some expert blending a la a milkshake blonde. (Butter milkshake, anyone? It could actually be good.)

Nicole Kidman’s Clé de Peau Beauté Partnership

Throughout her storied career, Kidman has been an ambassador for a number of brands. She’s worked with Balenciaga since 2023, was famously paid $3 million for a 180-second Chanel No. 5 ad in 2004, and has been a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador since 2006. There’s also her iconic AMC ad, which I hope they keep showing for a thousand years.

Now, she’s a Clé de Peau Beauté girl. The campaign tagline? “The key to radiance is you.”

You… and a fresh butter-blonde dye job.
