The Vibrant Creation of the May/June 2020 NAILPRO Cover
The NAILPRO May/June 2020 cover brought a vibrant explosion of color to life, crafted meticulously by Gelish CEO and nail artist Danny Haile. Drawing inspiration from the bold aesthetics of MTV, Haile utilized Gelish’s latest summer collection, ‘Switch On Color,’ to create a captivating faux three-dimensional nail design.
Behind the Scenes: Bringing Color to Life
The ‘Switch On Color’ collection isn’t just any ordinary nail polish lineup. Collaboratively designed with the cultural icon MTV, this collection pays homage to the dynamic and colorful history of pop music. Available in Gelish Dip and Morgan Taylor lacquer, this collection resonates with those who appreciate bold and vibrant nail art.
For the cover, Haile extended the model’s nails using PolyGel, setting the perfect canvas for his artistic endeavors. This approach allows for seamless design execution, crucial for intricate nail art like the one featured on this cover.
Design Inspired by MTV’s Iconic Logos
MTV has always been synonymous with creativity and color, an essence that Haile captured while drawing inspiration for the nail art. The use of vivid colors and playful patterns not only modernize the design but also make it commercially viable for salon settings. The technique involves putting a good detail brush to work, emphasizing precision and the ability to rectify any lines before final curing—an advantage of using Gelish products.
The Art of Collaboration
The collaboration with MTV is not just about color but about embracing a shared vision of pushing creative boundaries. With this synergy, the ‘Switch On Color’ collection is a testament to the transformative power of collaboration in the beauty industry and beyond.
