Greek nail artist Marianthi Tsitsopoulou recently won first place in the first nail art contest organized by the French-Greek Cyprus-based magazine, “Les Nouvelles Esthetiques.” The contest took place at the Divani Caravell Hotel on February 23 in Athens. Judges included Liliya Sereditskaya, Anna Almbanis, and Armen Manoukian. The challenge theme was “Spring” and the winner will travel to Paris to compete against winners from other nations. Tsitsopoulou’s specialty is 3-D nail art, and her spring set literally comes to life on her model’s nails. See more of Tsitsopoulou’s work here and read about her in the April issue of NAILS.
