[MissLolaLemon]

I can see that you have a lot more video responses then you were expecting. That means that your videos circulate well on the internet and that you're very popular! I must say that you deserve it! Because your vids are so wonderfull en really artistic. You present it with an natural grace en I just love your Russian English :D Plz keep the accent! Succes with picking your favorite one. Mine is the pink from olavaolaspacca72, but it's your choice?Maybe next time we can vote?

MissLolalemon <3

[mayparis]

i thought about voting too:) i also have about 10 entries as links to the photos - you cannot see them here, so it makes a lot more difficult to choose the winner for me:)

[krazie7]

[itsmeNT]

I have a question =)

I live in the Netherlands so do you send to my country too or only in America?

[mayparis]

i can ship anywhere

[babypeanutpie]

Thank you for saying that people should use a base coat! It is important!

[olavaolaspacca72]

I have a question! Can we use MORE than 3 elements or we have to use only 3? Thank you Anna :)

[olavaolaspacca72]

never mind, I already did my entry using only 3 :)

[MissLolaLemon]

I think you should win

[olavaolaspacca72]

How do you say "thank you" in dutch? But you know what? I've had so much fun that it really doesn't matter if I win I already have my prize!

thank you very much =)

[MissLolaLemon]

[itsmeNT]

Dankje/dankjewel/dank u wel/bedankt

hehe

[Bookfreak19]

Ah I definitely agree with you! This contest encouraged me to make my first video and it was so much fun! Thanks mayparis ;D

[mayparis]

u're sooo welcome:)

[joosii94]

is rhinestones an element?

[mayparis]

yes.

[aznxoxocutie]

did alot of people join your contest?

[mayparis]

i didn't count, but approx. 20 people.

[olavaolaspacca72]

can't we see the other entries? Here we can see only 12

[mayparis]

others are just links to photos. they message me on the youtube:)

[olavaolaspacca72]

oooohhhh :(

I'm curious as a cat!

[mandameticulous]

this is crazy. most of the people posting responses are professional manicurist. thats not fair to people who arent.

[mayparis]

why do you think they are professionals? their profiles don't say that, and i also cannot say it from their entries...

[olavaolaspacca72]

That is not true, I'm not a professionist at all! I do this for fun and I just started :)And I don't think other people partecipating are professionists. This is the great thing here ;P don't you think?

Are you a professionist, mayparis?

XXX

[mayparis]

i'm not a professional either. this is kind of a hobby for me, i like to make my nails look beautiful and decorated:)

[mayparis]

and by the way, i have never had any professional training for manicure or decoration.

[olavaolaspacca72]

so anyone can do what you do, this is the point, isn't it? :)

thanks for your answer, and yes the word "professionist" doesn't exists! ;P

[mandameticulous]

i never said professionist. i said professional manicurist. which means they went to cosmetoligy school. not professionist.

[mayparis]

anyways, as far as i know, no one from the contestants attened the cosmetology school. including me.

[olavaolaspacca72]

yes, that's what I meant, I didn't go to any comsmetoligy school :)

[tsigarulez]

I'm not a manicurist,& never studied cosmetology, I just do this for my fun

[bratz9955]

Hiya i'm going to make a foto but i'm 13 years old and i'm not very good at making fotos of my nails but i'm going to try..

O and do you mabe now some site for making de foto video?

[olavaolaspacca72]

try with windows movie maker, you should have it in your pc, it's very easy to use :)

[graceelovesmakeup]

so the base coat & the top coat doesnt count as an element right?

[mayparis]

right

[mayparis]

я думала по почте... просто прикинула, что можно в $20-30 уложиться, но не узнавала.. а щас уже некуда деваться)))

[gaia84italy]

[aznxoxocutie]

[mayparis]

[shaakalaka]

My real nails are..horrible. Can I paint it on a fake one and take pics?

[mayparis]
