If you love nail art, you have a little spare time and you want to explore new possibilities, then this is for you. I had so much fun with many aspects, not just the painting, but the planning. If you intend to blitz it in 31 days, then planning is most important, especially if you have a heavy work/family schedule. But it can be done!
I was blessed to have a group all doing the challenge at the same time. You can go it alone, but having the group support behind you does keep the momentum up, especially during those hair pulling times, and I think we all had them.
I am a sucker for challenges, and on the last day of this one, I began the MoYou London - 10k Nail Art Challenge on Instagram. This one is totally different for me as it's all about the stamps, (I tried to avoid stamps as much as possible during the 31 day challenge so that I could work on my freehand), I am trying to combine some freehand with many of the techniques I've learned to try and come up with something different. Any excuse to keep painting my nails!
