Review (4/5): Not great at first but now I like it
I really struggled with this nail stamper at first. It did not work out of the box for me like it did for other reviewers. This is essentially what worked for me.
1. I washed the stamper head with dish soap. After it dried, I did a very light swipe of rubbing alcohol. This will be the only time I ever treat it with anything but soap and water (in order to protect the ability to see through the stamper).
2. The stamper head is very squishy. This makes it a dream for transferring images onto your nails (it can get down in the nooks and crannies). But a squishy stamper head can make picking up the image from the stamper plate tricky. The best thing you can do is to work fast. Scrape the plate lightly with your scraper at a 45 degree angle with one hand and have the stamper ready with the other hand to immediately pick up the image, pressing straight down and not to hard.
3. Once the image is transferred, you have a little time to line it up but you will still need to work quickly. The image should be transferred to your nail within 5 seconds for the best chance at a succesful transfer.
4 stars from me since I was able to figure it out and get it to work pretty nicely. And the price is very low. However, getting to that point was quite frustrating. I would have appreciated some instructions and trouble shooting tips to come with the stamper. Hopefully my review will help anyone who buys this.
