Lazy Plate Comparison


Here’s a pic of one of the large plates that I bought off eBay.  This one features the full nail designs.  I am going to do a comparison between the large plate and some Konad plates.  I would have done it with the other large plate with just individual designs, but I didn’t have any Konad plates that matched those designs.


One close up pic of the plate.

I just simply stamped all the designs from the Konad plates then did the large plate designs underneath.  You can click the pictures to see the differences and similarities better.



Overall the images on the large plate are good copies of the Konad designs.  Some images may be thicker or thinner.  Any gaps in the stamping is more my stamping error than the plate being off.

Here’s the first mani I did with the big plate.


Done on shortened nails.  Once again going shopping has made me chip the nail on my index finger and this time a bit on my middle finger.

Faux water marble looking design.  Base colour was a faux mini OPI that I got at a random store in Markham with KleanColor Metallic Aqua as the stamp colour.

FOPI minis + Etude House

Went out shopping last Monday at Pacific Mall/Market Village. Bought some cream puffs (ate them before I could take a photo of them) and these faux OPI minis.


They were just in large tubs with a bunch of other mini polishes with no names or labels. The bottles themselves have some scratches or improper printing on the bottle. The bottoms have labels with a number and some words in Korean. They also smelled pretty bad. Here's a glittery gradient I did with the polishes above.

This is Etude House from I believe the Dear Darling line - WH020 Extreme Jewel.


I couldn't really capture it well on my nails, but it's mostly a silver glitter with purple, green, blue and red glitters thrown in too. This didn't stay on my nails too long. I think it peeled off the my index fingers the the second day of wear, which was the Monday that I went shopping. I walked around with polish on half my nails all day.
