[pinky98765]

wow sho cute..

[3TanjaJ3]

@pinky98765 Thank you :)

[saphirekitten13]

@3TanjaJ3 about the acrylic powder how long does it stay on your nails im a little curiouse because when i got acrylic nails they stayed on for like 2 months and would not come off will i have the same problem with these if i use this acrylic powder and what do i use to get them off my nails afterwards ??? sorry bout all the questions but i just want to understand what im gettin in to first cause i can be sort of spacey at times lolz \ ( > . < ) /

[3TanjaJ3]

@saphirekitten13 I only do the 3D so it's not as hard to get off as acrylic nails. I use an electric file, then acetone, but yo ucan also soak a cotton pad in pure acetone and let it sit on the nail with tin foil to soften it.

[onicelime]

Tanja, i am you fan!!! i am wearing now you spongebob nail design. b4 i did your lovely apple cider. i love your Halloween tutorials!!! surely when its time its the first thing i do! love you love you smooches

[dahliadecapitate]

[3TanjaJ3]

@dahliadecapitate I filmed this one out in a sun room before I moved last week :) now I have to do it outside, so I'm prefilming bacause I probably won't be able to do it in the winter ;P

[vuldafer]

Love the blue color ^^ And the ghosts are really cute. Also some cred for the music choice! lol

[3TanjaJ3]

@vuldafer Thank you!! :) it was hard to find spooky music on the site -.- so I'm not sure how well the music will fit the other halloween tutorials haha

[Thep00chie]

[demonapiccolo]

Halloweeeeeeeeeeen! I miss Halloween so much since being in Europe. Thank you so much for posting.

[3TanjaJ3]

@demonapiccolo hehe hard to miss something I've never had :D Glad you like the design though! ^^

[xBabiClox]

Ohmygoodness. They're so pretty! How come you have a Halloween tutorial up so early though? xxx

[3TanjaJ3]

@xBabiClox haha ^^ I've prefilmed 4 acrylic designs a week ago, and I have a couple of handpainted ones filmed as well. it's just so hard to wait with uploading those designs =)

[luvdrunkmuchful]

dun dun dun............it's........ANO­THER AMAZING DESIGN! wow this is super cool! (kinda cute too!) did you do any really scary~ designs?

[3TanjaJ3]

@luvdrunkmuchful I don't know hehe. I don't think a nail design can ever be scary. my 3D spiders don't look cute though. so look out for that one :D

[tonimusher]

Aha and heres me thinking you were from america lol, opps nevermind, Its a shame we dont celebrate it more as it is a major holiday really and its so much fun when there are parties everywhere, with people dressed up hehe x

[3TanjaJ3]

@tonimusher hehe but at least we have "fastelavn" which is also dress up, parties and kids walking from door to door. don't you have something similar? :)

[tonimusher]

@3TanjaJ3 Not really no we do have some kids dressing up, but you dont open your door for fear of getting stabbed and your house robbed lol not good! x

[3TanjaJ3]

@tonimusher oh haha ^^'' yeah that's not good. too bad :/ it's fun dressing up sometimes :) but there are lots of other great holidays as well - luckily

[camysh]

OMG you are so good at this!

I lvoe how you handle the acrylic powder!

just gorgeus!

[3TanjaJ3]

@camysh THANK YOU! hehe I try my best to do some cute 3D ^^

[rebelnailsnailart]

you are so good!

[3TanjaJ3]

@rebelnailsnailart Thank you so much!

[mrzbenitez09]

i love halloween, this was just amazing

[3TanjaJ3]

@mrzbenitez09 Thank you so much!!

[zachsprincess15]

awesome ;D couldnt you find a mold for the tombstone shape? and paint on rip?

[3TanjaJ3]

@zachsprincess15 I have no idea :) havn't seen one with that shape, but shape that simple doesn't take much time to do by hand.

[zachsprincess15]

awesome ;D

[3TanjaJ3]

@zachsprincess15 Thanks!! :)

[MsUnbreakable7]

This is so awesome. I just wish I had the patience to do this. Lol.

[3TanjaJ3]

@MsUnbreakable7 oh, well I don't think these 3D's require much patience ^^''

[MsUnbreakable7]

@3TanjaJ3 Lol maybe not. But I have very unsteady hands. Heck, I can't even paint my nails without it going all over the place outside of my nails. It drives me crazy. This is off the subject but I saw your real nails in a video I watched a while ago, and I envy your nails so much. Are your nails naturally strong? Mine are so weak and brittle and there's nothing I can do about it. Is there a secret to your nails?

[3TanjaJ3]

@MsUnbreakable7 hehe maybe just practice then :) gosh, if you look at some of my older tutorials with my own hands you can see that I got polish on the skin as well :D

There's no secret, I don't do anything to keep them like this. I only file and polish them, and of course whiten them once in a while. I've always had strong nails.

[MsUnbreakable7]

@3TanjaJ3 Gosh, your nails are naturally like that? I don't like you anymore, despite your awesome creativity with nails. Lol just kidding. Ugh, what I wouldn't give for nails like yours. In the mean time, I'll just keep doing everything I can to keep my nails from peeling and chipping. Thanks for all the nail awesomeness you bring to the youtube community! You should try for youtube partner because all that work should be getting paid for. Lol.

[3TanjaJ3]

@MsUnbreakable7 hehe Partner is not yet an option for me because I'm from Denmark :)

[majortomswife]

oOoo Spooky! Really cute. Nice job xD

[3TanjaJ3]

@majortomswife hehe Thanks a lot ;D

[sajonaee]

do u cure with uv after each finished design?

[3TanjaJ3]

@sajonaee nope. you cure gel with UV,. acrylic air dries

[mlovr4l]

Awww!! So cute! I love how the hands give it a slightly whimsical touch :D Great as always!

[3TanjaJ3]

@mlovr4l the ghosts' hands ? I think it makes them look cuter :D

[MzMelrose]

i love this halloween design!!

[3TanjaJ3]

@MzMelrose Glad you like it!!

[messinorouka]

wow. im scared already :D

love ur vedios

[3TanjaJ3]

@messinorouka haha :D I find it hard to believe that someone would get scared after watching these designs ;D

[messinorouka]

@3TanjaJ3

yea..i was just kidding :D

[imOctoberSnow]

ahhh! your too good!!! LOOVEE it!!

[3TanjaJ3]

@imOctoberSnow Thank you :) but I'm not too good hehe ^^

[LoveAj03]

I love them both, wow! lol

[3TanjaJ3]

@LoveAj03 hehe :) Glad you do!!

[configure1973]

OMG i LOVE these,

they are sooooo good :D

mega mega thumbs up from meeeee :D xxx

[3TanjaJ3]

@configure1973 Thank you so, so much sweety!! if you do 3D ghosts I want to see the result/tutorial =)

[MadameAshlini]

Are you left handed? Just curious.

[3TanjaJ3]

@MadameAshlini yeah,. I write and draw with left hand :) but I do pretty much everything else as a right handed person haha ^^

[MadameAshlini]

@3TanjaJ3 Oh, me too!! XD Yeah, I have to throw with my right hand, but for the most part I usually use my left. That's awesome!

[brad12050]

What can I say but once again I just have to watch all of the video,clearly you are a gifted person who has a keen eye for colour and perfection - please don't stop and I look forward to the next one.Thank you, an inspiration to the industry with best wishes and congratulations ( also great music to accompany ! ).

Will you be doing any tutorials on your own nails in the future ?

[3TanjaJ3]

@brad12050 that is really a huge compliment!

I just posted one on my own nails a day ago

[XBlueThunderX]

Oh my!! Can't wait to try this out for halloweeeeeeen!!

[3TanjaJ3]

@XBlueThunderX if you do please let me know! ^^

[kristys411]

i absolutly love it u r so gifted

[3TanjaJ3]

@kristys411 Thank you so much!!!

[TheBeatlesJpm4life]

I lover the background on the tombstone design :)

[3TanjaJ3]

@TheBeatlesJpm4life me too ^^ the different shades of blue and silver gives it a super nice effect I think

[tomboyz151]

ooh! i like the last design with the tombstone. heh.

[3TanjaJ3]

@tomboyz151 hehe Glad you like it :)

[slosho83]

wow very good think i might have 2 give it a go

[3TanjaJ3]

@slosho83 I'm glad you like it :) if you do, let me know! ^^

[cherryrosesea]

I love the pumpkin!!!!! It calls for pumpkin pie

[3TanjaJ3]

@cherryrosesea I've never had pumpkin pie :D but if it actually tastes like pumpkin I'm not sure if I want to try it haha ^^

[KailaMustang]

what halloween to come so bad XDDD

[3TanjaJ3]

@KailaMustang hehe :)

[dolphingirl1205]

love the music =D

[RiotDemon]

I love them both but the blue/purple marble tip is gorgeous! I will have to try that one with painted ghosts instead. I love how it looks in acrylic but i am glad the design is simple enough that it can be painted instead.

[3TanjaJ3]

@RiotDemon sure! :) they'll look super cute in 2D as well :) the only difference is that you probably should outline them

[RiotDemon]

@3TanjaJ3 That's a good point, thanks!

[animalover4life]

omg music is awesome.. nail design is cute woooooooo!!!

[3TanjaJ3]

@animalover4life Thank you times 2 :D

[3Dnailart]

heeheee so cute! So I guess we're all getting hype about Halloween =D Yay! 

[3TanjaJ3]

@3Dnailart I'm only getting hype about the designs :D we don't celebrate it here in Denmark

[melly9512]

i love it <3

[melly9512]

i love it <3

[tonimusher]

[3TanjaJ3]

[TheKjuti]

[3TanjaJ3]

@TheKjuti Glad you do :D

[MsFreakyMary]

[3TanjaJ3]

@MsFreakyMary I think it's funny... hehe but I can't tell - don't have it here :)

[doret95]

Beautiful<3<3

[3TanjaJ3]

@doret95 Thank you !!

[cmrtv100]

love the halloween serie

[3TanjaJ3]

@cmrtv100 hehe Thank you :) but isn't it hard to love a series where this is the first video? :D maybe you're going to think the rest is horrible :o

[xKayahx]

o= that is so cute! it totally makes me wanna go out and buy acrylic paint and fail at attempting this. d: 

[xKayahx]

o= that is so cute! it totally makes me wanna go out and buy acrylic paint. d:

[3TanjaJ3]

@xKayahx I'm not using acrylic paint ^^''

[3TanjaJ3]

@Theipodtouch123 there will be about 4 designs up with acrylic. and 3-4 without, depending how you look at it - I'm going to combine some videos like I did in this one.

[moncemnkmnk]

no joke, my goal is to grow my nails out as long as humanly possible (by my bodies standards anyways) and do as many of your tuts as possible, i havent bit my nails in a month and theyre almost gonna pass my tips!!

[3TanjaJ3]

@moncemnkmnk hehe think your bodies standards sounds better than humanly possible :D but you can do the designs on short nails as well :)

[brandnails]

gorgeous ....again ! x

[3TanjaJ3]

@brandnails Thank you! ^^

[bugeyedpet]

what's acrylic? and which do you use and where you buy it??

[3TanjaJ3]

@bugeyedpet you can see where I got it in my collection video. it's a powder and a liquid you mix to form a gel like substance using your brush, making the beads you can see I place and sculpt

[kitty21elly]

THAT Is sooo cute! <3 Absolutely adorible, and soooo well done :] Very good! xx

[3TanjaJ3]

@kitty21elly thank you so, so much!! ^^

[Leopardgirl8282]

I love the pinks and purples! I also love how you marbelized the colors, can you marbelize acrylic powders?

[3TanjaJ3]

@Leopardgirl8282 I've never tried, but I don't think you can :/ you can make 2 toned acrylic beads though. like fading.

[Leopardgirl8282]

@3TanjaJ3 Thanks sweetie, I will have to try it. I think tonight I will have to do hello kitty though, I've played with it but it is not near your fab design yet!

[Kenyanak]

this is soo cute my daughter loves halloween lol she dont even eat the candy she just like going out dressed up lol

[3TanjaJ3]

@Kenyanak haha ^^ that would be my favorite part as well :D picking out a costume for any event is so much fun! ^^

[SwirlandTwirl]

So cute!!!

[3TanjaJ3]

@SwirlandTwirl Thank you!

[ReddTearrs]

Your amazing! :o In my opinion your better then a lot of other you tubers that do nail art 8D Did you go to nail school? or you just learned by yourself :o?

[3TanjaJ3]

@ReddTearrs Thank you so much!! :) no not at all, I'm self taught, I started with nail art as a hobby in the beginning of 2009 and in the beginning of this summer vacation I began doing handsculpted acrylic designs as well :)

[skulltink]

Hi! Anyone can answer this question if you know the answer. Does anyone know if yoy can use rhinestones more than once?

[CHERRYxLOVE]

@skulltink Ofcourse you can.

[skulltink]

@CHERRYxLOVE thank you :)

[3TanjaJ3]

@skulltink you can :) I just don't like to do it, but if you want to, you can! ^^

[skulltink]

@3TanjaJ3 cool! Thanks so much :)

[iFcukAngel]

@1q2w3e4ryyyy Thanks! we do have 'Sint Maarten' You can dress up.. or not. And go with your lil brother, friends or anyone from door to door and get small amounts of money, and alot of candy and sweets. hehehe. :D

[3TanjaJ3]

@1q2w3e4ryyyy we don't have it either :) but we have "fastelavn" in february, which is a dress up, the kids are walking from door to door as well.. getting small amounts of money though instead of candy hehe.

[kelseyheartscomesify]

@3TanjaJ3 money? Where do you live? i have to go there. LOL

[3TanjaJ3]

@kelseyheartscomesify haha ;D small amounts I said. I think I got 20$ in total once when I was young. I was so proud xP

[kelseyheartscomesify]

@3TanjaJ3 LOL. That's nice. :D to bad there's no candy to money exchange. :D

[3TanjaJ3]

@BeautyBySkyeAngel I'm glad you did! ^^

[thepamperroom]

This was great! I love the design of the ghosts- very creepy, and yet so simple. I hope you don't mind if I borrow your design for my own nail art! I liked both of the looks. Thanks for giving us so many great ideas to mix and match!

[3TanjaJ3]

@thepamperroom ah, I don't think the first 2 ghosts are that creepy? :D

of course you can, I put the tutorials up so you can try them yourself :) but if you post a video or picture somewhere I would appreciate if you write where you got the idea ^^

[iFcukAngel]

Genius! <3

When is it Halloween?

We dont have it here! hehehe.

<33

[3TanjaJ3]
