SUMMER COLOR

And keep your eyes on the launch of CND's Summer City Chic Collection, which will debut at NAILATHON. This collection is all about standing out in the concrete jungle with bright colors full of possibility. Experience the vibrance of street art and boldness of what it takes to make it in the city with shades that are unique, iconic, and empowering.

Available in both CND® SHELLAC® Brand Gel Polish and CND® VINYLUX® Long Wear Polish, the colorful, energetic range is here to break you out of your comfort zone. The summer collection includes: Rooftop Hop, a warm, vibrant violet; Sangria At Sunset, a fruity red blend; Museum Meet Cute, a brilliant fuchsia; Beach Escape, a bright flamingo pink; Popsicle Picnic, a blazing yellow-orange; and Pop-Up Pool Party, a surprise electric blue.

“This fearless collection was inspired by our urbanites, our city-dwellers – the ones who crave adventures,” says Arnold. “These summer shades are designed to encourage self-expression through bold colors and art-inspired nails.”
