Chloe Camoccio, owner of Bare Nailscessity said: "Being shortlisted in two categories for prestigious awards like these is fantastic.

"Bare Nailscessity has existed for less than two years and it has always been my drive to provide my clients with a high quality gel polish manicure so to be shortlisted in the Best New Talent category is very exciting."

Emily Griffiths, owner of Hidden Beauty, said: "I'm very proud to have reached the final.

"Being able to provide clients with semi-permanent make up really brings a lot of responsibility, which I love and my clients love the results I am able to provide too."
