Uber Chic Beauty - Fairytale 01

A while ago I purchased the Über Chic Beauty - Fairytale 01 stamping plate directly from their shop. Since then Über Chic Beauty plates have also become available from She Sells Seashells  a nail art shop in the UK.  This cuts down on shipping and VAT cost for us UK people, and I am very happy for that.

I had been pondering for a while which image to use from this plate, and settled on something cute, since Valentine's is coming up very soon.

I have really wanted to use more of my indie polishes and this time I got Girly Bits - Promise Me. This is actually one of the few mini polishes that I have, for a long time it used to be the only one and had a special place in a small Plexiglas Box for displaying purpose.

Girly Bits - Promise Me is such a pretty soft pink polish with small hex glitters. There was still some VNL after 2 coats, but I am sure that would have been sorted with one more coat. It was not visible to the naked eye, you really needed to turn a macro camera at it to see. 

I used my Clear Jelly Stamper to line up the "Princess" image on my ring- and little finger. The image was taken at an angle where you can't really tell that it is written twice on each nail, but I am so happy with how it turned out.
I think I am starting to get the hang of the usage of the Clear Jelly Stamper.
I also purchased one with a clear holder, and I think that works a lot better than the purple holder.

I have for you today a video and pictures of the Fairy Tale Collection Plate 08 from Moyou-London. I am really loving this plate for all the different options on how to use it. It's that next step from standard stamping plates. Collage all the way.




Here is the first manicure I made using this plate.  Below you can see where I picked the images from, to get you started on ideas on how to use this plate. Link here to the full post about the mani.

The Lonely Prince


I recently received my Moyou-London plates, and just had to try them out. So I made this little nail art with the Fairytale Collection Plate 08.
I was having some starting problems with the new plastic scraper, but after a few errors and tries, I think I nailed it (pun intended).


I used Barry M - Dragon, and Barry M - Blueberry for this manicure. (follow the link for more about the polishes used, as this is a second day mani) I isolate the handsome young man, and stamped him over Blueberry, and used the veins and roses on the rest of the nails.




Doesn't it just look like he is lonely, looking out for his princess?

Moyou-London Haul

I am so excited over this haul. I wanted to get a couple more plates, but the ones I had my eyes on were sold out, so I only bought a modestly number of four plates. I am planning on doing another haul from Moyou-London soon. Their plates are amazing, so pretty and innovative.

I bought two of their Scholar Collection Plates, one Fairytale Collection Plate and one from their Sci-Fi Collection. I also added their stamper and scraper, on recommendation from Mishka over at Lacquer or Leave Her. She is such an enabler, she is awesome.



There you have it, everything I bought. I will be doing a little video on those plates, and you can find them at my YT-channel. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss it. 

First up I want to show you the plastic scraper and stamper, below you can see it compared to my Konad set.

The large stamper is the same size as my old Konad one, the with of the scraper is the same, but the Konad scraper has a larger area to place your fingers. Being used to the Konad scraper, I find the Moyou-London one a little bit small, but it's just something to get used to. The stampers from Moyou-London is super shiny, and feels a bit oily to the touch.

On to the plates. 








I love the design of these boxes/sleeves, they are so pretty. Such a genius idea that each of these plate collections has their own girl featured on the front, and that they all have special names. Like the Sci-fi girl is called Lilu. Cute. 

Do these plates fit in the Bundlemonster plate storage?


If the Moyou-London plates did not have the white backing, they would slip into the sleeves in the Bundlemonster plate storage, as you can see on this picture. So as for how to store them, I would suggest using the boxes/sleeves they come in, or a baseball card holder, or the binders made for these sized plates

How large are the designs/plate?


Here you see a standard Konad plate over the Moyou-London plate. It's 2 mm wider than the Konad one. On the plates that has full nail images like the Sci-fi Collection, the images are the same size as the Konad ones. 

But which plates did you get?


Kidding, I got stills for you. 
Often when I see people buying plates, I often wonder, what made you buy this specific plate (on in the case where someone buys ALL THE PLATES). So, I will stop after each plate and let you know what i think. 


Scholar Collection Plate 01. I have been wanting a plate like this for a while. I'm quite nerdy and just love this mathematical plate. You got equations, pie, Pythagoras, did I mention pie?  


This plate really was a no-brainer, I had to have it. Fairytale Collection plate 08.  The prince and the princess. As a HUGE Disney fan, this plate was shouting at me. I love the roses, the swirlies, the different royal embroiderer designs. So pretty.


Scholar Collection 02. I wanted to buy the entire Scholar Collection. I love books, and this plate really has it all. Quotes from Romeo and Juliet, ink spatters, a little Alice in Wonderland, and a feather pen. Writer to be or not, this is such a pretty plate. Those ink splats can also be used as blood splats, you know. Endless opportunities. As supplements the Fairytale Collection plate very well. 


Last but not least. The Sci-Fi Collection 06. This was the only plate in the Sci-fi collection i really felt the need to have. The rest of the collection is very childish, and not really my style. I feel that my Cheeky Summer Collection plates covered that area well enough for me. This plate has everything a computer geek needs to do her nails appropriate to her hobbies. You have motherboard designs and all sort of things. Awesome! This is a 1337 - plate.
