As a kid, I would always ask my sisters to paint my nails without any hesitation. I walked around with neon pink thumbs, FEELING MY FANTASY! Sad that it took me 16 years to paint my nails again, but so honored to be partnering with @Sally_Hansen and @GLAAD for Pride. Sally Hansen has donated to GLAAD’s iconic, culture-changing work to create a world where everyone is liberated to express themselves freely. CAN I GET AN AMEN?! The #XtremePride Collection is available online and in-store exclusively at @UltaBeauty baby! #SallyxGLAAD #ad Videographer: @rupert_kaldor Hair & Makeup: @jessibutterfield Manicurist: @adakiss Prop Stylist: @ceciliaelguero
