CND

Beloved of beauty professionals the world over, CND has carved out a niche as the go-to brand for nail services that are every bit as reliable as they are boldly original.

Ever since the brand's beginnings in 1979, it's offered a fresh look at hand and foot care, delivering gorgeous results via the sort of treatments familiar to a spa or salon professional. A key part of this is the sheer amount of research and development that goes into even the smallest product – which should come as no surprise given the brand's state-of-the-art laboratory. This unique resource provides beauty specialists with the perfect environment in which to meticulously craft products that their clients are crying out for.

It can hard be hard to square CND's success with its origins in a dentist's office. It was there that practising dentist Dr. Stuart Nordstrom first saw that the material he used for capping teeth could lend itself very well to a new type of nail enhancement product. From such beginnings, CND has gone on to become a key part of the nail beauty scene in 65 countries worldwide.
