Theme: Echoes of summer- festival season βοΈπ‘ππͺ©ππποΈ
Festival season is calling and your client’s nails are bringing the heat. Bold, bright and made for the spotlight, this look channels sunset skies and main-stage magic.
Think confetti skies, hands in the air, and nails that bring more energy than the headline act. ππ
Your client is not one to shy away from the spotlight and wants a set as eye-catching and colourful as her multiple sparkly outfits.

They also offer valuable networking opportunities, exposing you to other talented professionals, potential clients, and industry leaders.
Whether you win or not, the experience builds confidence, strengthens your portfolio, and enhances your credibility - helping you grow both personally and professionally.
