PS, for those of you guys who follow my vlog channel, this was the exciting news/video I was talking about in this video: ua-cam.com/video/rIsbPVyrakk/v-deo.html
Did you win? I went to vote and it was closed. No matter the results, I appreciate the video. It definitely helped me. New sub. I also liked the hair video I saw. I think it’s so cool watching people do different stuff with their hair even though I still don’t have the guts. I feel red on the horizon, though, lol. (I’m dark blonde)
Ambivalent Disaster we find out at the end of September!! I have to do an interview with them first 😳 we’ll see how it goes lol. And funny you say that, I’m feeling red on the horizon too! We could be hair twins!!!
I voted for you, Kelli! (Obvs.) Congratulations on being a semifinalist! That's so awesome! I think you would make THE BEST ambassador for Sally Beauty Supply!! Thank you for not depriving us of a fun fact. Water marbling is a really bold step into the nail art world. (I've never tried it. It looks too hard.) I can't wait 'til you show us how this technique is done! (You can do it. I believe in you! 😊) Thank you for the beginner nail art tricks. I forgot that you can use acetone to make watercolor effects. I'm going to have to give that a whirl ASAP!
Kelli, I'm not easily impressed. I'm impressed. Your eye for color, your makeup and nail art tips are simply so useful. Although I'm not a wearer of makeup, it is another art form to be respected. IMHO you are beautiful and so easy on the eyes. Color lives.
Your hair looks amazing!! Love the combination of colors. You already have my vote, I hope you win. You're very talented and deserve an opportunity like this.
So I voted for you and then checked out the other semi-finalists. They are all really sweet and nice people. In my opinion though, your video is #1. You were informative, helpful, and creative. You had nice text/msgs to help reinforce certain things so that everything was clear, and you had great video quality/editing. You looked great too! I hope you win Kelli! Best of luck!
Kelli Marissa well you are the one that made me comment a lot. I feel like you are a wonderful person, friendly, and awesome to hang out. I feel like your my friend even though it’s just a UA-camr and a random fan. Hahah, sorry I just sound silly.
I watch both you and Cristine and have been wearing nail polish for 40+ years but I've learned so many different things from you both, thank you for your fun and informational video's, I'm in the U.K. hope my vote counts xx
It's so fun to mess around with! Just make sure you don't do too much cause it'll start to ruin the base color underneath haha! I learned that one the hard way 😝
I will vote for you! Your videos are so helpful. Recently my personal problems are a little bit too much, and with your videos I get my calming time. I always try to paint my nails and use many of your techniques. Thank you!
Oh thank you so much for your support, and I'm so glad to hear my videos bring some form of relief for you! I hope that things start to look up soon ☀️
You'd be a great ambassador for any beauty or nail company. I went and voted for you and hope others will as well! With Jenna Marbles gone you are exactly the kind of energy we need to keep on youtube. Awesome video! I learned a lot and look forward to using the smoky/watercolor acetone trick
Paused the video as soon as you mentioned the voting link so I could hop over and vote. Those are GREAT tips for beginners. I've been doing nail art for over 2 years and never knew that about acetone. Thank you!
Kelli not just your nail arts are mesmerizing but also your eyeshadow techniques are amazing . Pls drop a tutorial or list of your fav eyeshadows. Love Nash .
I’m a new subscriber but I voted for you last time you mentioned it because your videos are always so helpful and you seem like such a genuinely good person. I hope you win! ❤️
I voted for you! I learn so many good tips from you. Like today, I'm going to try a white base coat for a gradient instead of the usual lightest color.
Those were really great tips and I like seeing a nail art tutorial. Tips and tricks are always great to see. You have my vote! Just went ahead and did it. Best of luck to you
I voted for YOU 👍🏻. For anyone confused I have to slid DOWN to get to the nail vote. It took me a good min to figure OUT u could swipe down for more voting options 🤦🏼♀️🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻good luck 🍀Kelli🍀
Kelli Marissa it was probably me just having a brain fart . BUT just in case anyone else is like “me”🤦🏼♀️😂because the nail vote is at the end of the page under 2 hair vote options.
I voted for you Kelli and truly hope you win! Cause one thing is for sure, when it comes to nails you are "da bomb". And the friendliest UA-camr as well :)
@@KelliMarissa I love your and simply's nail polish collection and of course all of your channels 😁 after watching those rainbow order of nail polish organization video of your and Cristine's video, I organized my nail polishes and then I realized I only own 150 bottles and most of them are dried and I am running a nail art channel. Lolllll... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In the part where you showed us the water marble acetone trick you said you might want to use a top coat. I was just wondering if you used a top coat before putting on the diluted polish on that clip because it turned out great !
Thats a great question, I actually didn't use top coat before but if you want to go over the area a few times, you probably should otherwise it'll eat away at that base color haha!!
I just voted for you and I honestly don’t see how you cannot win. Your video was by far the nicest with the most energy. You are up beat and very informative. Your personality really shines through .Good luck ! !
Great Video! Definitely will go vote for you! Huh water marbles - I haven't tried them but often think that I will someday. They look like they are so hard to do. Cristine even has a hack video on them. Good Luck !
You got my vote - good luck! I watched the other entries and they were all great, but you're my fave, and the person who got me back into nail polish 🙂
A request: favorite sheer nail polishes + application tips? I think sheers are so pretty for those more understated days but they always end up so patchy + streaky for me :(
I really hope you win!!!! Plus I hope this gets you lots of new subbies 🤞 🤞 🤞!!!! And OMG 🤯 mind blown. I DID NOT ever think of using a white base for gradients! I always do lightest color and sometimes it DOES get muddy. Can you tell us how you did that holo gradient? Usually I end up with a lot of glitters and no base color so it doesn’t look like what you did it just ends up bumpy and desaturated!!!!
Subscribed and voted! You were a clear choice for me after I watched all the other contestants. You did a great job, and had really helpful tips! Good luck!! 🤗🤗
Ages ago, I asked you what a specific polish was behind you. You replied very quickly, and it was OPI Amazon, Amazoff, which I then bought, and like you, used once, as it is HELL to remove. I have been continually impressed with how much you interact with your audience. You seem to be a genuinely lovely person, and I wish you every success in the world. I do have a question/suggestion. I would love to know how your nail polish tastes and preferences have changed since you first started using polish, or things or techniques you don't like. For example, I have always gravitated to very dark colours (my all time favourite colour ever is OPI black cherry chutney), but as I'm getting older, I'm leaning towards neutrals and much softer colours. What about you? Much love xxx
Oh wow thank you so much for the kind words Carol, and haha that's kind of hilarious about Amazon Amazoff, I really haven't worn it in years for that reason lol!! I think that's a fun video idea about nail polish preferences - I'll have to see how I've "evolved"!
I have yet to attempt a water marble but I love to watch them. The Cirque Colors neon are begging to be used for that! I haven't even attempted a gradient on my actual nails, though.
Voted for you Kelli! I’m enjoying your videos, since I stopped going to a nail salon while they were closed and didn’t go back! I just have to strengthen up my own natural nails, it has been years since I’ve seen them! Love your Pink Floyd top! Best of luck in the contest!💅💅💅
VOTED!! ✅ Also genuine question, when using tape to help block out an area/line/shape for a manicure, do you still need to put on a clear coat before using *wall safe tape?* The level of stickiness/tack is meant to be very low; less than regular tape, so I'm genuinely curious if the same instructions still apply? 🤔 Thanks for your time Kelli! 🙂
I voted for you.... congratulations for being a semifinalist....:) And the first two trials with nail art with my new dotting tools where flowers and heart design....they were very easy and looked amazing
Hi, Kelli! Great presentation. Very well done👍😊 I would like to know when your creating your smokey effect on the white base with the use of acetone mixed in with the black do you apply a top coat over the white base coat first?
Oh thank you so much Heather!! I would start off with a top coat over the white base when you're first getting into acetone art, because it's easy to use too much and start to eat away at that base color underneath haha. But as you get better and can be more precise, you can probably skip the top coat until you're done with the whole mani!
PS, for those of you guys who follow my vlog channel, this was the exciting news/video I was talking about in this video: ua-cam.com/video/rIsbPVyrakk/v-deo.html
Can you vote more then once

Kelli Marissa 😆💃🏼
I would vote if I could figure out how but I can’t figure it out lol
I couldn't stop staring at your eye makeup.. It's stunning 😍
Oh gosh thank you so much haha :)
Same😍
Dotting tools are also good for capping the free edge 😉
Good tip!! Thanks!
Omg brilliant, I've gotta try that haha
Oh my, what a great idea. I have really short nails and have struggled with capping the tip.
That’s SUCH a good idea omg
@Jennny, Holy moly, thank you for the awesome tip for the tip! Lol
I voted for you, Kelli! (Obvs.) Congratulations on being a semifinalist! That's so awesome! I think you would make THE BEST ambassador for Sally Beauty Supply!!

HaikuMarionette it doesn't sound silly to me, it makes me feel very special 😅💜

Oh thank you so much for your vote and for your kind words of encouragement, Sue!!
Great job, good luck! I like the smokey tip. I'll have to try it sometime.
It's so fun to mess around with! Just make sure you don't do too much cause it'll start to ruin the base color underneath haha! I learned that one the hard way 😝
Thanks for the info. Practice makes perfect they say.
I will vote for you! Your videos are so helpful. Recently my personal problems are a little bit too much, and with your videos I get my calming time. I always try to paint my nails and use many of your techniques. Thank you!

I don’t know what’s better...your hair, makeup, nails, or outfit! (And the hacks, too.)
Oh gosh thank you so much!!

Everything colourful just suits you so well! you look absolutely stunning like a rare breathtaking peacock in this boring sad white and black world 💓

Very nicely done! Voted for you. Hope you win!
Oh thank you so much!!
Yes! Watermarble please!
Subscribed and voted! You were a clear choice for me after I watched all the other contestants. You did a great job, and had really helpful tips! Good luck!! 🤗🤗
Oh gosh thank you, welcome to my channel!!
I would love to see your water marbling skills!
Ages ago, I asked you what a specific polish was behind you. You replied very quickly, and it was OPI Amazon, Amazoff, which I then bought, and like you, used once, as it is HELL to remove. I have been continually impressed with how much you interact with your audience. You seem to be a genuinely lovely person, and I wish you every success in the world. I do have a question/suggestion. I would love to know how your nail polish tastes and preferences have changed since you first started using polish, or things or techniques you don't like. For example, I have always gravitated to very dark colours (my all time favourite colour ever is OPI black cherry chutney), but as I'm getting older, I'm leaning towards neutrals and much softer colours. What about you? Much love xxx
Oh wow thank you so much for the kind words Carol, and haha that's kind of hilarious about Amazon Amazoff, I really haven't worn it in years for that reason lol!! I think that's a fun video idea about nail polish preferences - I'll have to see how I've "evolved"!
Great video Kelli!
Voted! Good luck. You purple eye shadow is stunning!!! Wow 😊💜
Thank you so much!! 💜💜💜
Kelli, my vote is in. Wishing you all the best 😉💜
I voted a few days back as I normally check out the Sally’s app for sales.. no worries u got this!!
Oh gosh thank you for the encouragement haha!!
Love your hair! These colours look awesome on you! Going to go and vote now...good luck in the contest! ❤️
I have yet to attempt a water marble but I love to watch them. The Cirque Colors neon are begging to be used for that! I haven't even attempted a gradient on my actual nails, though.
I know, I feel like every cirque collection has me tempted to water marble them! But then I get scared and procrastinate for a few years LOL
Voted for you! You got me into nail stamping, dotting tools and lots of joy on T-F-Sunday !This is so exciting 😬😉😬
Voted for you Kelli! I’m enjoying your videos, since I stopped going to a nail salon while they were closed and didn’t go back! I just have to strengthen up my own natural nails, it has been years since I’ve seen them! Love your Pink Floyd top! Best of luck in the contest!💅💅💅

Voted for you. Good luck!
Very helpful 👍👍
Glad to hear that!!
You got it, I voted! Your hair & make up look amazing!!!!
Oh wow thank you so much!!
Hi, Kelli! Great presentation. Very well done👍😊 I would like to know when your creating your smokey effect on the white base with the use of acetone mixed in with the black do you apply a top coat over the white base coat first?
Oh, and I voted for you too! Your picture stands out as the most confident. I love it😀❤
Oh thank you so much Heather!! I would start off with a top coat over the white base when you're first getting into acetone art, because it's easy to use too much and start to eat away at that base color underneath haha.
