"Most of the inspiration comes from Nicki herself," says Yvett, who serves as creative director. "Whenever I've worked with her, she gives me a little bit of creative freedom. She'll give me a little bit of a mood board of, 'This is the look, I need you to do this gold thing, whatever.' So when we started with the brand, she was like, 'I need it to be inspired by things that we've already done, because I want my fans, my Barbz, to have a little bit of me.'"

"Nicki specifically said, 'I need there to be a lot of sizes,'" Yvett recalls. "Because for example, Nicki has really small nail beds. So if she was to just go out and get the regular [press-ons], they don't fit her, because they're too big. So we try to give you as many options."

When it comes to designs, Pink Friday Nails embraces the hottest trends like cat-eye nails, metallics, French tips and embellishments. The brand also offers small to extra long lengths to suit a variety of lifestyles and preferences.
