Review (5/5): Nail Stamping Plate Set
I used to do a lot of nail stamping back in the day and cannot find my older plates for the life of me! I ordered this set because I loved the holiday designs and remembered how much fun these were. I like that this came with a clear silicon stamper. It is so much easier to see that you've picked up the design and where you are trying to place it. This also came with a thick sturdy scraper, about the size of a debit card. It actually scrapes quite nicely and doesn't scratch up the plate like other scrapers I have used in the past. With regular polish, this works very well but you have to work quick. With gel polish, you have to let the polish set into the design for about 20 seconds, scrap, let set another 20 seconds, then pick up the design. You also have to really know exactly where you want to place your design and instead of rocking back and forth, you firmly place down the stamp for the best, most crisp stamp. If not, with gel, it tends to be less crisp or smear. It's definitely a learning curve if you are working with gel. Still, this set works really well and I can do more designs rather than trying to hand paint details on. Love this nail stamping set!
