If you’re anything like us, the most adventurous thing you have ever done with your nails is paint them neon pink (before very quickly taking it off after five minutes).

 

But now is the time to embrace something new and crazy, and very inconvenient for everyday use! 

 

CND, the global leader in professional nail products and services, has given us the most incredible nail inspiration with their eye-catching collection of hand-crafted nail designs at Libertine’s Autumn/Winter 2016 Show at Skylight Clarkson Sq. in New York.

 

 

Inspired by Johnson Hartig’s muse of the season, a French sculptor, painter and filmmaker, with enlightenment from transcendental meditation, the clothing and nails featured graphic elements of modernism with sculptural extravagance in vibrant and animated color. 

 

Using Shellac Brand 14+ Day Nail Color and Vinylux Weekly Polish, the elite artists of the CND Design Lab Team clocked over 200 hours of production on the works of art, so you know that it is the real deal.

 

Finished with 60 LED-lit Swarovski crystal pupils, the eyes represented the quiet aloneness and centered spirituality achieved through meditation. An additional 180 pastel matte base nails were decked out with soft, fluffy adornments for a luxe organic finish.

 

“One of the coolest things about this partnership is the artistic vision our team shares with Johnson,” said CND Design Lab Team member Heather Davis, who led the charge on the creative concepts for the nails.

 

“He recycles the work of classic designers and refurbishes them into modern interpretations, while we take classic core colors and reinvent them with artisanal techniques like mosaic tiling and porcelain enamel finishes. It’s pure magic when we get together to create.”
