If you’ve seen me talking about GNDA lately and wondered what it actually is… GNDA = Global Nail Design Awards — a nail industry event celebrating nail artists, education, creativity and competition across the industry. I had the absolute best day! 🥹💅🏼 I got to see so much incredible nail art, meet and connect with other nail techs, learn, be inspired and, of course, compete with one of my own pieces! It was such a cool experience being surrounded by people who are just as obsessed with nails, creativity and pushing themselves as I am. I’m honestly so glad I decided to enter and be part of it. It was a huge learning experience, and I’ve come home feeling even more inspired to keep creating, experimenting and challenging myself. Definitely isn’t my last GNDA! 🤍🏆✨ Also a BIG congratulations to the other incredible icons who entered, and well done to those who took an award home 🤍🥹

Thankyou for the love and support 500 followers. This weekend is @gnda how exciting goodluck to everyone that entered. Have fun to ones that are going to gala and expo!!! Sad won’t be there in person! If you would like to vote for me in Instagram ! x

We have our winner for the August leaderboard! 🥳 It was a freaking close one this month, and I loved seeing the interaction there near the end 😂 If you’re new here, we run a fun “competition” to see who is the most active member in the community for each month. We like to thank whoever is in the number one spot for making the community fun and engaging. We do this by adding their personal invite link to our social media bios so they can directly benefit from any new members who join from our external marketing and promos. This month, in 1st place was: @Chloe Payne 🥳. Chloe, thank you so much for everything you contribute to the community 🥹🤗✨ you’re so appreciated 🫶 In a very, very, very close 2nd place: @Kate Brown 🥳. Kate you got so close, and you actually interacted more than Chloe this week, but overall for the month - it was just the teeniest bit short 😭 I believe in you though. You’ve got it this month 🙏🙏 And the 3rd most active member was @Cat Tortorice 🎉🎉. It really is a pleasure having you here Cat, and I’m loving watching you and your style develop along the way 🥹 - you’re going to get so good at this! If you want to play along, even just for fun! Please do 😁 the more you engage with the community and the other nail techs in it, the further up the leaderboard you’ll climb. However, the leaderboard isn’t the point. It’s the relationships building and lessons being learned that make it all worth it 🤗

I had my first actual stall today at a powerlifting comp. I sold 15 pairs all up. 11 pairs were custom sets for 8yo girls so tiny little tips. And I'll attach a photo of my favourite customer of the day, a friend of mines 8yo boy. He got his mum to buy him 2 pairs and hes going to wear them to school tomorrow, I couldn't stop laughing, neither could his mum 🤣
