Salon Express Nail Art Stamping Kit **Review**


So here i am, once again... lol
A few days ago i picked up at the store the Nail Stamping Kit from Salon Express, i had seen it before on tv and on my state fair, but i wasnt too sure about since not everything that shines its gold, or at least thats what my grandma would say, hahaha. Anyway i saw it and it was only $10, so i said to myself:  "why not?"
It comes with five (5) different design plates ( they r way too cute), a little scraper thingy, a plate holder and a stamper (which is what transfer the design from the plate to your nails!.


I gotta be honest the 1st time i ever tried i was sooo disappointed, i was all excited to try my new toy but bleh it didnt work at all; But thanks God for internet, i did a little bit of a research and i find out that to protect the plates from scratches, they come with a film on then as you'll see in the next pic), all you have to do is carefully peel it off, and that's it! :D




Second try went a little more smooth since this time i had already gained some experience , but it still didnt came out perfect, you need to be quick and precise, also if you use thicker Nail polishes it will work better ( Not old ones just the ones that are meant to be for nail art, since they really has a thicker consistency) .
I did try the plate on the picture above and it failed BIG time! i was so mad and still am, because one of the motives are stars! and they would look oh so cute!
Oh well maybe i just need a little more practice with this one. :)


Anyway... this is the ones that did work for me.



Arent they just so cute!!
Now i just need to let my nails grow a little, or maybe alot, hahaha. And let the fun begin!


Pros:
*Cute Designs.
*inexpensive.
*DIY
*Easy to Clean up. ( just use N. Polish Remover)

Cons:
*Not as Easy to do as advertised.
*Not all the plates give you a nice stamp.

Would i buy it again?
I dont think so.
Would i  recommend it to a friend?
yes, but ill let them know about how it isn't as easy as it looks. :)
