Review and test: My Online Shop JR-35

(Nothing to disclose)

Today I'm showing you a brand I've never tried before, My Online Shop. They've been around for a while, but you know how it is--so many plates, so little time. *sigh*

But I finally got two of these plates, and I'm starting off today with JR-35, because this month's theme in the Nail Challenge Collaborative is 'animals', and this is the most animalest plate I've ever seen. Yes, it's a word. I checked...>.>

Let's start with the video:



And here are the stills:

And to give you a sense for how big the images are, here's the plate next to a standard Konad plate:

For my first manicure with this plate, you know I had to check out the cute little kitties...they're half the reason I bought the plate! I started with a pink-and-purple skittle featuring Zoya Eden, Colores de Carol Amethyst, and Zoya Thea; I did a little sponging on my ring finger, and then stamped my kitties on top:

I have to admit I struggled a little getting these kitties to stamp well; unlike the images I tested in the video, these are a little harder to isolate, and I had to scrape/pick up each of these at least 5-10 times before I got a good image--and you can see on my pinky and my middle finger, the images still were not perfect. This doesn't mean that the plate is bad, just that it's not a beginner plate, and you may have to try a few times before you get the image you like.

What do you think--cute enough to be worth a little extra work? :)

Happy stamping,
M.

  10. Very cute! I have a couple of cat images I should get around to stamping, but like you said...so many plates, so little time ;)

  11. I have a few of the MJ plates. I like the images, because they are different to what i have seen, but the degree of difficulty of stamping them seems to be different for each image. I like them for an accent nail or something, but stamping every nail gets a bit tedious.
