Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate BP-X15 Review

In this post, I will be reviewing stamping plate BP-X15 from BornPrettyStore. They recently came out with a new set of small, square stamping plates. Being the stamping addict that I am, I needed to check these out. Here is the one I got:

As with the other Born Pretty Store plates, these ones come with their own little cardboard-like sleeves to store them in.

The first thing I always do when I get my stamping plates is peel off the blue protective film.

The next thing I always do is some test stamps. This one is no exception. Here is how it stamps:

While swatching this plate, I used the XL Clear Silicone Marshmallow Jelly Stamper from BornPrettyStore. You can read my review on that stamper here.

As expected, this plate stamps perfectly. I couldn't wait to use it! I love the flower design. You could do several different mani's with this plate, and they would all look different. This image has several different parts. Here is what I did:

You can see just a couple minor imperfections in my stamping. It was my fault, not the plate. For the details on this manicure, and my review on BornPrettyStore's U-Shaped Spill Proof Nail Polish Stickers, click here.

Overall, this stamping plate is great. It is etched great, very pretty, and the image is large enough to do several different looking mani's! If you are into stamping, or would like to give it a try, this stamping plate is on my recommended list. You can find this stamping plate on BornPrettyStore's website here. They also have tons of other great nail art supplies. Don't forget to use my coupon code for 10% off any regular priced items.

Born Pretty Store XL Clear Silicone Marshmallow Jelly Stamper Review

In this post, I will be reviewing the XL Clear Silicone Marshmallow Jelly Stamper from BornPrettyStore. As I have mentioned before, I love stamping. Which means I love stampers and comparing them, to find a favorite. Let's take a look at this stamper:

 

It also has a hard, plastic cap that covers the stamper head. Here is another picture:

It also comes with a Born Pretty Store credit card style scraper. I absolutely love these scrapers. They are about half the thickness of an actual credit card.

A few months ago, I did a review on the Crystal Clear Jelly stamper from BornPrettyStore. You can read that review here. I used that stamper to compare this one to. While that one is squishy and soft, this one is much squishier and larger. I absolutely love it. The handle is much shorter, but not too short that it is uncomfortable to hold. It is just perfect. Now, the only thing going through my head is "Please let this thing stamp for me!!!" I always like to test them right out of the package, just to see if they will stamp. Let's see how this one did:

Pretty impressive! 

I did give it a good massage with some rubbing alcohol, hoping that would clear up the small areas that weren't quite as crisp as they should be. Here is my next stamp:

It did better. I think I waited a tiny bit too long, so I didn't get a couple of those fine lines. It picks up the image great!

Here are my swatches on paper:

After seeing how well this stamper was picking up, I was dying to put it to my nails. I stamped over the ombre mani I did when I reviewed BornPrettyStore's U-Shaped Spill Proof Nail Polish Stickers. You can read that review and get all the details on what I used and how I did this mani here. This is how it turned out:

For my swatches and mani, I used stamping plate BP-X15 from BornPrettyStore. You can read my review for that stamping plate here.

Overall, this is a great clear stamper, if you like squishy stampers. I absolutely love it, and it will be the new go-to clear stamper for me. It is so much bigger than the other clear stamper I have! I could easily stamp 2 nails at the same time (3 if I am very careful). Hmmm, that gives me ideas. I need to try that! You can find this stamper and scraper set on the BornPrettyStore website here. They also have tons of other great nail art supplies.
