Why you should produce a Step by Step All photographs and boxed nail art entries must be accompanied by a written and visual Step-by-Step, detailing how the ‘look’ was achieved, using this Step by Step document as a template. You may add additional pages to this PowerPoint if you wish. Points will be awarded for this. Include your design ideas and information on products used, props used and how the design was achieved. The Step-by-Step is also used to confirm the authenticity of your entry, and if this is not available the entry may not be judged. The judges will not see your name on your photograph / box or your step by step so all judging will be totally impartial.

Your inspiration Outline the thought process you went through before you created your design. Include information such as the books, films, magazines, images etc that inspired your design. You may wish to insert images of these in the box opposite to illustration your thought process. You may use more than one page if you need to.

Choosing your model Outline how you went about choosing your model. Models with young skin and hands shoot best, along with long slender fingers with long nail beds, and light to no hair on hands and arms. No abrasions, scars or bruises should be visible. You may wish to illustrate why you chose your model using images opposite. You may use more than one page if you need to.

What products did you use? Please list all products that you have used to create your photograph, including brand names, product names and tools. You may use more than one page if you need to.

3D Nail Art You must list and show photographs of all 3D nail art that you have used (for nail art and boxed categories). The use of pre-made 3D nail art will lose you marks but if you do not list all pre-made 3D nail art used in your design, your entry will be disqualified. You may use more than one page if you need to.

Step by Step process of creating your nails Insert photographs and text outlining each stage of creating your nails. You should aim to show at least eight stages. You may show more if you feel this is necessary.
