With any competition, there must be rules, to keep things fair and fun. Please read the Nail Boss: ‘Colour Me Creepy’ Nail Art Competition, below:

This competition is not divided by category, and is a mixed media competition. This means competitors can use any and all, Glitterbels products together or separately, to create their Halloween Set. For this mixed media nail design competition, competitors can use:

• Core, Colour and Glitter Acrylic Powders
• Builder Gel and Hema Free Builder-Bel Gel
• Hema Free Gel Polish
• Glitterbels Nail Varnish range
• Unbelievabel Gel
• Blooming Gel
• Loose Glitter
• Chrome Powders
• Charms, Crystals and Press On Nail Tips can be used, as an exception to the ‘Glitterbels Products Only’ rule.

1. All nail art must be created using Glitterbels products. With the exception of charms, crystals and any press on tips the design is created on, as these are products Glitterbels don’t currently provide. 
2. Nail art can be created on nails or tips of any length and can be any shape. You can use full coverage tips, half tips,  a hand model, a fake hand or can create your look on your own nails.
3. When competitors complete their design and submit their work, any photos or videos of the work should be sent, without filters or the use of any editing software. 
4. Competitors will need to provide a list of the products used to create their work.
5. Submissions must be a new design that has been created specifically for this competition.
6. Your nail design should span all 10 fingers, images of the work should include detailed shots of this. If you are working on tips, you can lay them flat on a white background so we can ensure we don’t miss any details.
7. All entries must be submitted to this link, on or before the 20th of October 2025, at 12am.

To maintain the integrity of the competition, we kindly ask that you refrain from using any filters in your pictures or videos. We want to see your artistry in its truest form, without any alterations.

When capturing your entry, make sure to provide 5 photographs from different angles. Include top views, side profiles, and front profiles of the nails to showcase the crisp details you have created. Simply submit your 30 second video and 5 high-resolution photos, via the submission link here.

What is a Nail Boss Competition?

The Glitterbels Nail Boss Competitions are a showcase of the talent and innovation in the Glitterbels community. The Nail Boss competition and awards were started in 2023, at the Glitterbels Hema Free Builder-bel Gel Launch Party and we have decided to make it an annual event.

This year we are celebrating all things creepy, cute and creative with the Nail Boss: ‘Colour Me Creepy’ Nail Art Competition. This year’s competition features just one category, to keep things simple. Submissions are judged by Glitterbels founder, Annabel Maginnis, and special guest judges. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes are available in each category.

What is This Year’s Theme?

This year we have decided to keep things simple, with one big theme - The Ultimate Halloween Design. We want Nail Boss contestants to create their most fun, innovative and spook-tacular Halloween nails to date, using any mix of Glitterbels products. Inspired by Glitterbels founder, Annabel Maginnis and her unique technique using different Glitterbels systems together to achieve new textures, finishes and nail designs, we encourage you to explore the limits of creativity in this mixed media competition. This can be done using combination of any of the following systems on your design:

• Glitterbels Acrylic System
• Glitterbels Builder Gel Systems
