The Making of the September 2017 Cover of NAILPRO

From creams and shimmers to neutrals and jewel tones, the fall collections have a color that will fit every personality. To help showcase these shades on the September 2017 cover of NAILPRO, we tapped the artistic talents and creative eye of nail pro Tracey Sutter. First, she doctored a few broken nails on the model’s hand with hard gel, then she got down to polishing. We chose a variety of hues that represent the hero colors of the season. Sutter let the lacquers speak for themselves for the most part—with creamy pigment or intriguing iridescence—and only on one set did she top it with a velvety mattifier to add a hint of texture. “I am an artist so I love nail art, but sometimes it’s nice to just have solid polish,” Sutter says.
