Love & Sparkles with Katy P nail artist

Unveiling the Sparkle Squad: A membership programme to empower nail artists

ABOUT KATY

Katy Pottle, or ‘Katy P’, has over two decades of experience in the nail industry. From working on a mobile basis to owning a salon, her journey is a testament to her dedication and passion for the world of nails. She loves glitter and is on a mission to help nail techs worldwide shine, one intricate design at a time, with her online workshops and one-to-one masterclasses.

She seeks to inspire and mentor fellow pros, and sprinkle her signature ‘love and sparkles’ across the industry.

“Whether you’re starting out or are a seasoned nail pro seeking to improve your skills, the Sparkle Squad supports artists at every stage of their journeys.”

This month, I want to tell you about something exciting that I have been working on. I’m thrilled to introduce the Sparkle Squad, a membership programme designed to elevate your nail art prowess. Whether you’re starting out or are a seasoned nail pro seeking to improve your skills, the Sparkle Squad supports artists at every stage of their journeys.

The vision behind the Sparkle Squad

Creating the Sparkle Squad was a dream that came to life through my experiences in the nail industry. Having worked as a nail tech for over 22 years, I know firsthand the challenges and triumphs that come with mastering nail art. After winning The World’s Star Nail Artist competition last year, I saw the opportunity to give the nail community a structured, supportive platform to encourage learning, sharing and growth. My passion for nail art goes beyond creating beautiful designs, as I want to empower others to find their creativity and confidence. That’s how the Sparkle Squad was born: a community that allows its members to shine and unlock their potentials.

One of the main challenges I’ve encountered in the nail industry is the loneliness that can arise from working for yourself. I want to open a space where artists can connect, support each other and build lasting relationships. With a monthly membership, you can not only access an ever-growing library of tutorials and resources, but engage with a community of fellow artists. Via the Sparkle Squad, nail pros can discuss ideas, trends and product recommendations.

Being part of the Sparkle Squad doesn’t just mean watching videos – it involves staying connected to the latest trends, participating in live workshops and receiving real-time feedback. Plus, you’ll have opportunities for mentorship and personal growth that you can’t get from pre-recorded content alone. This is an all-access pass to a world of creativity and support, helping you to grow your skillset in a variety of ways.
