Manicurist Kimmy Kyees made rock star Rihanna's nails sparkle for her Diamonds World Tour.

With her “Diamonds World Tour” just getting started, international pop-star Rihanna made sure that one (very important) aspect will be on point for the rest of the shows: her nails! Kyees, who is Rihanna’s long-time manicurist says that “Rihanna will often fly me out, even for a quick touch up, just to make sure her nails are on point.” Kyees turned to Artistic Nail Design Colour Gloss™ to ensure that every manicure, at every stop, would be perfect.

After her performance at the Hartford XL Center on March 15, and while en route to the Montreal Bell Center for the next stop, Kyees applied acrylic extensions on the moving bus. As a professional, Kyees is used to applying acrylics in awkward situations. “I’ve applied nails in stranger places, so this was a breeze,” says Kyees. She completed the look with Artistic Nail Design Colour Gloss™ in Charming, a new mint crème colour from the What Kind Of Woman Are You? Spring 2013 Collection.
Rihanna loved the colour so much that she even posted a photo of her manicure on her personal Instagram account. “Artistic Colour Gloss #Charming get into it!” she stated. So far, her post on Instagram has garnered a whopping 189,990 “likes”.
