Review: UberChic Beauty Yay Spring! plate!

(Press samples ahead!)

Hello!


Are you ready for a new plate from UberChic Beauty? I have a few to show you (video reviews of them are already up on my YouTube channel here), and today we're gonna start with the Yay Spring plate:



Here's a shot of the plate:

Plate size:9.5 cm x 14.5 cm
Full nail image size: 17 x 21 mm

The plate gives you great options for religions and non-religious manis for Easter (or a combination of the two!), along with a ton of fun images for flowery-spring garden manis, or flowery stuff to use throughout the year. Some of my favorites: the calla lillies and daffodils (pair those up with the grass for a gorgeous look), the cherry blossoms you can use for corner looks on your nails, the fun Easter eggs, the intricate egg at the top that gives you those sculpted edge to work with (use for French tips or half-moons, or over just parts of your nail), and the bunny with the glasses. OMG, too cute.


Here's a look with a ruler so you can get a feel for the relative sizes of the other images:




And how does it stamp? Great quality as usual:







For my mani, I started with a base of Girly Bits Robin Me Blind (half of their April CoTM duo), which may be the most perfect spring blue ever. I created some calla lillies decals using Girly Bits Little Black Dress, White Wedding, and Ker-minty Frog Here:

Originally the plan was to stamp grass among the bottom of the nails to make it look like the lilies are growing in a garden, but I loved the elegance of the color combination and the images together as is, so I left it. I still think it would look great the other way, too, but sometimes you just gotta stop when you hit something you adore.


You can find this plate in UberChic Beauty's shop, and you can follow them around the internet here:




Happy spring stamping!
