Tropical climes have helped Lauren Sharpe win an in-house 3D nail competition at Dearne Valley College. The competition brief was to create 3D acrylic nails with a historical or fantasy theme. Miss Sharpe, from Kilnhurst, Mexborough, was inspired by rainforest research materials before making the accessories from acrylic. Claire Mynett, a College beauty therapy tutor, said: “The students have all worked really hard to create their 3D nails. “There have been some really creative designs produced. “All the students have put a lot of time and effort into some fantastic designs.”
