Bella Hadid covers Vogue Mexico with nails by me

If "bella" means beautiful in Spanish, then Bella Hadid certainly personified it on her recent cover of Vogue Mexico, shot on location in Xpu-Ha, Mexico. The hidden and majestic Hotel Esencia was the backdrop for these striking covers shot by Chris Colls.

The look:

Bella had on almond-shaped enhancements with nude polish from opening the Alexander Wang show in NYC the evening before, and we decided to remove them and keep her natural nails a semi-shiny sheer shade. One coat of essie "Sugar Daddy" with no top coat fit the bill perfectly.
