Rihanna’s on island time, and she’s giving us everything—sunshine, sandals, and a manicure that deserves its own press tour.
She just dropped a photo dump from Barbados, and while the Fenty x Puma jelly sandals were technically the focus, we were all looking at the nails. Sorry, not sorry.
Instead of matching her lime green slides, Rihanna hit us with a glossy, sheer pink jelly mani that’s straight out of every Y2K mood board.
It’s giving lip gloss nails, it’s giving early 2000s slay, and it’s giving add to cart, immediately.
Her go-to nail artist, Kimmie Kyees, shaped them into a sharp square, then glazed them with that milky pink polish that makes your hands look like they belong in a Fenty campaign (because hers literally do). Toes? Crisp white pedi. Icon behavior.
Jelly Nails Are Officially in Their Comeback Era
Let’s be honest—jelly nails have been waiting in the wings, and Rihanna just pushed them center stage this spring.
The pink shade is that perfect see-through finish that looks cute on everyone and somehow works with literally every outfit. Whether you’re beach-bound or just faking vacation energy from your bedroom, this mani hits.
She paired the nails with a punchy red lip—Fenty Beauty’s Stunna Lip Paint, obviously—and a colorful fit that pulled the whole thing together.
It’s the kind of combo that makes you want to book a flight, wear sunglasses indoors, and pretend you’re not responding to emails.
Nails That Slay With Everything
This mani isn’t just a vibe; it’s a whole mood board. It’s low-key, it’s pretty, and it screams, “My life is put together even if it’s not.” The pink jelly shade is super wearable, super cute, and kinda addictive once you try it.
Rihanna said jelly is back—and now we’re all mentally at the salon, asking for the Rihanna pink. As we should.
