We Asked 7 Nail Artists to Tell Us About the Best Nail Look They've Ever Created
In our eyes, nail artists might as well be wizards. It's definitely not something the average person thinks about on a daily basis, but the way they can turn ten itty-bitty blank canvases into full works of art — sometimes with only minutes to spare — is always on our minds. And the professionals who work behind the scenes of designer runway shows, red-carpet events, and editorial photoshoots have endless inspiration to share. Because when you do nail art for a living, you rack up a lengthy portfolio of work pretty quickly.
So we asked some of our favorite nail artists one dire question: What is your favorite nail-art design that you've ever created? The answers range from the simple and approachable to the painstakingly elaborate. They also involve just about every manicure tip and trick you could ever conceive.
Below, nail artists like Miss Pop, Gina Edwards, Tom Bachick, and more discuss the nail-art looks they'll never be able to forget — plus some of the products and tools that made them possible.
