Stay At Home Challenge #3: Colour Blocking Nail Art

We know there’s only so many things you can do at home – watch movies, read, dance,
organize your entire nail polish collection – which is why we created a Stay at Home Challenge that we’ll be sharing over the next few weeks to make your days ahead a little more bright and colourful.


This week we’re kicking off a colour blocking nail art challenge. That’s right, we want to see your best colour blocking nail art with your favourite shades. The prize? A feature on our Instagram feed or story!


If you’re up for the challenge, here’s how to participate:


1. Create a colour blocking nail art look.


2. Snap a nailfie and share it using #StayAtHomeChallenge and tag us @OPI.
We’re sharing two nail art looks we created exclusively for Ulta that are easy to recreate all on
your own. Take a look at these designs below using shades from our Mexico City collection to
inspire your colour blocking nail art, but if you don’t have these on hand, any shades will do!
