Issa Rae and Her Barbie Pink Nails For President

The world premiere of the upcoming "Barbie" movie was in Los Angeles, CA, on July 9. All of the stars in attendance were dressed to the nines in their best pink ensembles — save for Margot Robbie, who opted for a black gown in homage to the 1960s Solo in the Spotlight Barbie — all the way down to their pink Barbie nails. Issa Rae, who plays President Barbie in the film, wore a hot pink custom Marc Bouwer gown, a sleek high ponytail, and a french manicure that meant business.

Celebrity manicurist Eri Ishizu created the look for Rae, opting for a split french manicure in two different shades of pink. "Issa has been in the mood for pink," Ishizu tells POPSUGAR in a press release. "We wanted to have fun with the nail look for the 'Barbie' premiere, so we decided on using different pink shades. Using the signature color and embracing the playfulness of Barbie, I put a spin on the regular french mani, creating an abstract version."

OPI's GelColor in Put it in Neutral was used for the base of the manicure and the shades Two Timing the Zones, a hot pink, and I Quit My Day Job a softer pinky rose, were used for the abstract french tip. Last but not least, a shiny top coat sealed it all in. For a non-gel alternative, you can use the OPI Nail Lacquer in Bon Voyage To Reality! ($11) from the OPI x Barbie the Movie Collection for the base, followed by the shades Hi Barbie! ($11) and I Quit My Day Job ($11) for the tip.
