Mani Mania: UberChic Beauty Stamping Plates Review

piCture pOlish Forget Me Not stamped with plate 1-02

Despite not being much of a nail art stamper, I've been playing around with UberChic Beauty stamping plates lately! The manicure above was my biggest success, and maybe one of my best stamping manicures ever. Though I'm not the best stamper, I've been having a blast putting together manicures with these plates. Keep reading to check out more of my results!

What really stood out to me about these plates is how beautiful the patterns are. They're modern, well designed, on trend, and just really fun. Many of them have superfine, intricate details, like in the photo above.

I'm not particularly skilled in stamping, but these plates seemed to work well for me! Even the finest of lines picked up each time.

Here's some more info about UberChic plates:
- The plates themselves are pretty large, especially compared to the other ones that I have in my collection.
- The designs are large, and easily covered my nails with room to spare.
- Each plate has a general theme, which includes full nail designs plus coordinated single images.

piCture pOlish Starry Night by Llarowe

There's a new piCture pOlish collaboration shade in town and it's called Starry Night! This collaborative shade was made with Llarowe and it's really quite lovely.

Starry Night is a charcoal jelly scattered holo with multicolor sparks. I found that the formula was super cooperative and just the right consistency. I used three thin coats for my swatch, though if you apply your coats a bit thicker you will probably only need two. It has a very smooth, non lumpy finish and dries to a high shine.

I love the irregularly shaped flecks in this.

Here is Starry Night in direct light.

Of course we can't forget the classic piCture pOlish bottle!

Starry Night is 11mL and is available through Llarowe for $14.50 and via the piCture pOlish website for AUD$12.00. No other US or Canadian stockists will have this shade as it will be exclusive to Llarowe. You can also follow Llarowe on Facebook and piCture pOlish on Facebook.
