Caitlyn Jenner is a name that has been trending a lot lately. The Vanity Fair cover girl had always done her own nails, so for this shoot she got extra special treatment from celebrity manicurist Deborah Lippmann. Lippmann decided on an almond shape for Jenner’s natural nails. She then prepped and moisturized Jenner’s hands using her own treatments before painting them red in her shade, Lady is a Tramp.

I am proud to have given @CaitlynJenner her first manicure and pedicure. Thank you Caitlyn for opening my eyes, heart and soul. I adore you. Xo #AnnieLeibovitz and @VanityFair for including me in this historic moment. #CallMeCaitlyn Fashion Direction by @jdiehlpoynter Hair by @oribecanales Makeup by @markcarrasquillo Booking Editor @kmacnyc Set design by @maryhowardstudio

Nails have played a huge role in Jenner’s transition. A couple of months ago, nails served as the canvas of choice for showing support for Jenner.
