Stamping Plate: MoYou London - Roxy Collection 01 XL

review-MoYou-London-Roxy-Collection-01-XL

This is a stamping plate from MoYou London, this particular one is an XL plate making it perfect for people with longer or wider nails. Images are 1.5cm x 2cm. The plate itself comes backed with a piece of white plastic meaning it is great for those who are clumsy. It does mean there is more of a clean up though.

It has 12 images on the plate itself. As you can see all of the images stamped relatively well, the wonky images are as I was using a squishy stamper as it is the largest stamper I have and these images are quite large. The speaker image is the one I had most problems transferring.

I quite like a lot of these images, my only issue is the images are a little too wide for my nails.

GOT: Tropical

I wanted to use this floral pattern but the stamping polish didn't seem to work properly. I used Barry M's Matt White from at least May 2012 and Sally Hansen First Kiss from April 2012.

Nails: Matte Holo Crackle

Shatter, crackle nail polish whatever you like to call it it seems to have come and gone in terms of trends. I wanted to use the black again and so I ended up using it over a black holographic polish and I really liked the look. The matte crackle contrasting over the shiny holographic base.

Nails: Egg Squiggles

I used some wiggly scissors on tape and used them over the base polish and then painted over with the darker polish.
