Get inspired for the festive season with two new nail tutorials from the CND Gilded Dreams holiday collection. Here’s how to give your clients an embellished manicure, just in time for their party-ready season.

Party Jewels

1. Ensure the nail is thoroughly cleansed and prepared for polish.

2. Apply two thin layers of Vinylux Chiffon Twirl to the entire nail.

3. Apply a thin layer of Vinylux Weekly Top Coat.

4. While top coat is still wet, apply square studs down one side of the nail.

5. Apply a thin layer of Vinylux Chiffon Twirl over the top of the studs.

6. Use a detail brush with Chiffon Twirl to create tiny dots between each stud and press a silver stud in the wet polish.

Ruched Lace

1. Ensure the nail is thoroughly cleansed and prepared for polish.

2. Apply two thin layers of Vinylux Grand Gala to the entire nail.

3. Dip the tip of a striping brush into Vinylux Studio White and apply three horizontal lines dividing the nail into thirds.

4. Take the striping brush and draw four diagonal lines, starting on one side of the nail and repeating on the other side, creating a criss-cross diamond pattern on the nail.

5. Apply a thin layer of Vinylux Dazzling Dance over the whole nail.

6. Apply a thin layer of Vinylux Weekly Top Coat.
