Nails: #fightforlightandlive - Depression Awareness

Nailsandpolkadots on Instagram - "The passing of Robin Williams has again shown that there is more to a person than meets the eye. Having suffered from depression myself me and a few friends have decided to collaborate to raise awareness for the invisible illness. Join us this Sunday by posting a green manicure using the hashtag #fightforlightandlive. Feel free to repost this picture to get as many people involved as possible".


These are my green nails for this cause, raising awareness and showing solidarity.

Stamping Plate: MoYou Nails - 123

MoYou Nails have recently released a new batch of stamping plates. I have used the brand before and have purchased plates from them before, you can see my reviews on their other plates here. This plate was sent for reviewing purposes, which won't effect my opinion.

As you can see the plates come in a cellophane package and have a blue plastic layer to protect the plate in transit. The plates are fully backed as well with the website address, this is useful as it also means no sharp edges. Which in turn means my fingers don't get cut with sharp edges!

Below is the images stamped on to white paper. They all stamped well, perhaps a little wonky but again that is down to the squishy stamper I used. There are four full sized images, measuring in at 15mm x 18mm. Which is wider than some of the previous MoYou Nails plates, so if you had problems with those images being too slim for nails these should fit better.
