we're making some changes to our monthly manicure process!

since starting monthly manis again, we've noticed a decline in participation and entries as the months go on, and feel that it's time for a fresh start and new vibe!

moving forward in 2026, we'll be creating a monthly collection of colors available for purchase, similarly to how it's been but without as many requirements. these will be featured colors for the month. as long as the manicure's main colors and focus are the month's featured colors, it's a winner! more details and specific "instructions" will come when we begin with february's mani collection!

we're going to forego the competition aspect, and turn towards a total celebration! rather than having everyone compete for a winning place and feature on the site, everyone will be featured!

each submitted mani using the monthly colors will be posted on our site in a collection of manicure sets throughout the year. not only will this allow us to highlight each individual's talent and style, we'll also be able to create an "inspo board" of manicures directly from our customers! at the end of the year, we may be able to do something fun for our community using all of the monthly manicures created throughout the year.

we're extremely excited to put this into place, and can't wait to see what ALL OF YOU create!
