Emmy Manis: Kerry Washington Wore Gelish

by NAILS Staff | September 24, 2020 | Bookmark +

Manicurist Kim Truong took care of the talented tips of actress Kerry Washington for this year's Emmy Awards.

Truong used Gelish Professional products to put the finishing touch to both her virtual red carpet look--a graphic chevron-- and for her second look of the night, a blooming mani with handpainted flowers, to match her floral dress by Oscar de la Renta.
