NEW global nail art competition
Introducing the Wild Card Challenges
How does it work?
One contestant from the Wild Card challenge deck WILL make the Top 3 of this competition and be in with a chance of winning the title of The World’s Star Nail Artist! BUT – they must enter all 4 Wild Card Challenges to be eligible. They'll be joined along the way by those eliminated from the main challenges, and we’ll be looking at contestant progression as well as skill across these challenges to decide who will head to the final in London.
