Introduction
Fashion enthusiasts and nail art lovers, brace yourselves! The renowned Marc Jacobs showcased a breathtaking collection at New York Fashion Week for F/W24, and the nails were truly a highlight. CND partnered with celebrated manicurist JinSoon to create stunning nail looks inspired by papercut dolls and the iconic style of Diana Ross. In this article, we will share a step-by-step tutorial to recreate these runway-ready nails at home.
Inspiration Behind the Look
JinSoon describes the nail concept as a unique blend of creativity, featuring big hair, long eyelashes, and glossy, neutral tones that captured the spirit of the collection. The chosen shades include CND’s Bare Chemise, Field Fox, and Satin Pajamas, all carefully selected to keep the hands looking clean and buffed with a barely-there feel.
Step-by-Step Nail Art Tutorial
Ready to get started? Follow these detailed steps to achieve the stunning nails seen on the Marc Jacobs runway:
Step 1: Nail Preparation
Begin by prepping your nails. Make sure they are clean, dry, and free from any polish. Push back your cuticles and shape your nails to your desired length.
Step 2: Apply the Base Coat
Next, apply one layer of CND Shellac Base Coat. Cure the base coat using button 1 on the CND LED Lamp to ensure long-lasting wear.
Step 3: Apply the Color
Choose your preferred CND Shellac shades: Bare Chemise, Field Fox, or Satin Pajamas. Apply two layers of your chosen shade, curing each layer with button 2S on the LED Lamp for optimal coverage and durability.
Step 4: Add the Top Coat
Finish your nail art with one layer of CND Shellac No-Wipe+ Top Coat. Cure using button 3, and don’t forget to clean the nails using 99% IPA for a flawless finish.
Step 5: Moisturize
To condition your nails and cuticles, apply CND SolarOil. This step is crucial in maintaining healthy nails, especially after the application of polish.
Pro Tip for At-Home Mani
If you want to achieve this runway look at home without the shellac, try using CND Vinylux Long Wear Polish in the same shades: Bare Chemise, Field Fox, or Satin Pajamas, finished with the CND Vinylux Long Wear Top Coat. This easy alternative provides 7+ days of high shine and exceptional wear.
