Stamping Gel Nail Stamper Plates Design Kit, 7 Colors Nail Stamping Polish Gel 8ml+ Silicone Nail Stamper Scraper Set+ 4 Nail Stamp Plate Star Moon Flower Leopard Girl Design Templates + 12ml Top Coat

The stamper didn't really work great for me until I learned to scrap at just the right angle so as to scrape just enough polish off without scraping it from the design. Also learning the right pressure of the stamper and a feather touch when transferring is another key point. Ytube videos are a great resource for this

Do not buy. It doesn’t work at all.

Stamping Gel Nail Stamper Plates Design Kit, This is one of the nicer stamping kits I have tried. It has everything you need except for a base color and something to scrap the color into the stamp. I have saved old credit cards for that function but anything made from flexible flat plastic will work. I found that a contrasting base coat and color gives the most impact. The color for the stamper is thicker, making it a lot easier to use the stamp since it dries slower than regular polish. The stamp pad also picks up the color much easier as well.

It has been years since I tried using a UV gel stamping polish, and I have to say that this was just fine. They worked really well. You don't have to be as fast as you have to be when using regular polishes when picking the image up off the plate with the stamper. It's very nice and easy to use. I was pleased with the double ended stamper. Just remember you need a UV nail lamp to cure these after you apply them to the nail. The only things that could have been better was the selection of colors. It didn't have any kind of yellows or greens, and that was little disappointing. I like rainbows. Plus I wanted to see if I could mix color to make other colors. Also, the scraping card seemed a little jagged on the edges, not very good at scraping the gel away, it left small streaks behind. They don't work very well over black. But otherwise, I thought they worked pretty well.

Jelly stamper is falling apart on first try and the colors aren’t at all vibrant

I have missed nail stamping and thought i would give this kit a go. I am glad I did! The nail stamping plates themselves are good quality and the etching is perfect. I also love the clear stamper that is 2 sided, allowing you to pick up both smaller and larger images onto the nail. Of course, you also get the perfect credit card shaped scraper. The second-best part of this kit is the 7 colored gels that you also receive. With these colored stamping gels, you don't need to rush the process. These are gels so there is no drying out until you decide to cure. You can cover several images with just a small amount of gel. Definitely a great buy if you are into nail stamping.

This stamping kit worked perfectly for me after a few practice runs. The large set has a good variety of stamps, and I didn’t experience any of the problems other reviewers mentioned. The tools feel sturdy, making it a great option for beginners who want to experiment with nail designs.

This set of nail pattern stamp templates I knew was going to be a bit challenging, but I had every hope I could master it. There is a nice video on the listing that sort of gives the idea on how to go about this. I have a few things to mention though first... First of all- the plates, they are all covered in a blue film wrap to protect them from scratches. I peeled off the blue film wrap on one, and it was still blue underneath so I thought the plates must be blue- I tried it, it was a disaster... that was when I realized it still had one extra blue shrink wrap covering the etching. Note: you want to save and reuse those blue shrink wraps to protect your plates by the way, so don't crumple them up or throw them out or ruin them. Just set them aside to spread back over the plate after you have cleaned it up at the end. My point here is that they might have two coverings on them you have to peel away. You will know you are at the actual plate when it is silver, and made of metal, not blue. I followed the video, squirted a drop of gel polish tint (one of the tubes they included- be sure you look at those colors because they are pretty limited, no orange, no yellow like the video shows... ) I scraped over it with the plastic scraper piece they included- here is where the true trouble began... it is so hard to remove the extra gel with that plastic scraper piece, it leaves streaks every which way you go with it. it just seems like the edge isn't that ideal for this purpose. I kind of think they need a more rubbery silicone spatula to do this, not that hard plastic square. Make sure you have a lot of tissues here for this part, it gets messy with the extra gel all over the place. Now to the silicone "Stamper" that you press onto the design to pick up the pattern from the gel paint that has remained in the grooves of the pattern. That tool my main issue was with the silicone pieces falling out, they were in the handle so shallowly and loosely, they fall out with just a bump. I understand that they almost need to be like that so you can easily get them out and wash them when you are done, but still, it seemed like they could have somehow made them a bit more secure in the handle. It did end up working for me, but the details were so small, and the color was so faint that it was hard to distinguish the pattern. Now don't judge this by my photo here of the first nail I did, because I am unskilled with this, it is true, and I know I can get better (like in avoiding the double print I did in this one) but still the pattern is just so faint you would have to do painting over top of it to make it visible. It does say this need curing to set, so what they say to do is you paint your base coat on your nail, Cure. Paint your chosen (and self provided base color on your nail (one or two rounds of that), Cure. Do the stamp on your nail, Cure. Do the top coat- cure. What they DO NOT tell you how to do, which would have been most helpful, is tell you how to clean your plates after, how to clean your stamper tool and your scraper. Soap and water didn't cut it for the plates or the scraper tool. I ended up having to wipe both of those with acetone to clean them, they seemed to withstand that ok. The silicone stamp I didn't dare use acetone on, but thankfully soap and water cleaned that one off fine. I would have liked a little more instruction with this set on how to use, and how to clean and if you can use regular gel nail polish on the plates or if there is something special about the gel nail polish tubes they included with this set. I'm not sure if I would get this again giving the chance, it is a bit tedious to me, and although I know I probably would get better at doing these pattern transfers over time, I'm not sure the result would really be dark or visible enough to want to spend my time mastering this.
