T
he 80th Golden Globe Awards event was held in Los Angeles on 10 January 2023 and presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Viewed in more than 230 countries worldwide, the annual Golden Globes honours Hollywood’s finest talent and celebrates both motion picture and television achievements.
CND partnered with celebrity nail artist Vanessa McCollough (@nailzbyvee) for Jennifer Coolidge’s (@jennifercoolidge) red carpet nail look. Coolidge won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series for her performance in ‘The White Lotus’.
Says McCullough: “Jennifer decided to wear a long-sleeved black dress with a lot of shimmer, so I wanted to contrast the shimmer by using gold embellishments that didn’t compete with it. The gold triangle detail was the perfect touch. Plus, the length of her nails and positioning of the triangle also helped to elongate her hands.”
Step 1
Begin by applying CND Plexigel Bonder to the nails.
Step 2
Use CND Future Forms to sculpt the nails.
Step 3
Apply two coats of CND Plexigel Builder to build desired length.
Step 4
Apply two coats of CND Shellac Gel Polish in Black Pool.
Step 5
Finish with CND Shellac Duraforce Top Coat, securing a gold triangle embellishment in the bottom centre of the nails, before applying a second layer of the top coat.
Step 6
Moisturise with CND Solar Oil to condition the nails and cuticles.
