These are so pretty. I used them on top of the Mylee Fix n Flash Short Almond Gel Tips because my natural nails were all different lengths and shapes - and because I’m not good at shaping nails using my non-dominant hand.
I was nervous adhesion to the gel tips wouldnt be great, but i buffed off the shiny surface with a nail file, used a prep wipe to dehydrate and applied the strips.
The gel strips can become distorted if you arent careful when stretching, but once I had found the knack of placing centrally on the nail and using the wooden stick to help pull them to both sides, it was a simple enough process. I loved how easy the excess filed off, and they didnt take long to cure. I didnt add a top coat until the next day but they were so solid i wasnt worried.
Pros
• no lifting after 10 days & counting.
• pretty design
• simple to use (but not quick)
• seem to be withstanding hair washing & styling & skincare and sunscreen etc
• compatible with mylee gel tips
Cons
• not sure how to remove them after sealing with top coat (that sealed the edges down so the MoYou instructions for removal dont seem to account for that)
• the top coat i used was repelled by the gel tip (think oil in water) which i didnt notice until after i’d cured. Its not noticeable unless inspecting the nails, but i know its there. Not sure if a con of gel tips or of top coat but just add your top coat to one nail and see how it behaves. Flash cure if need be. Working quickly will help.
• the gel tips can fold & crease so beware when sticking them down
Overall really glad i bought them, i can’t wait to use my next set!!
Love this print, it’s absolutely adorable. That being said the actual Care Bears designs were all on random nail stickers so I had to cut each and every one of them to size except for the last two which I had to stretch to fit. So it wasn’t as good of a fit as usual and we’re ready for replacing in a week rather than the usual 2
Had my first set on for two weeks now. Had to replace on as it chipped. Took about 40mins to do first time for whole set and over all super impressed with their strength and ease of application. Did one hand with clear top coat and other without to see difference in wear and overall not much difference so won't bother with top coat next time. Would definitely recommend.
I ordered these with little expectation. I was pleasantly surprised. I went on holiday for 10 days, going in the pool, sea and digging in the sand multiple times daily. They lasted until the last day when only one came off. I can only imagine how long they’d last if I had been less active and spent less time in the water. I definitely recommend and will be ordering some more x
Obsessed! 😍 I’ve never tried stamping plates before, but I got these and Moyou’s stamping polishes and I am so happy with the results! Please make more stamping plates or restock some of the sold out ones 🙏
Great set. Very classy and minimalist. Easy to apply and lasted couple of weeks!
I love all of MouYou nail stamping plates and am sad they’re discontinuing their stamping line. I don’t think it’s the best move but others will fill the spot hopefully.
Hard to use, smudges the nail art easily. I used to really like this top coat but not so much anymore
So i bought a stamping black which is decent, yet the smudge proof top coat is no good. Tried using a few different ways of applying none have worked. Also message MoYou although I've had no reply. Deffo wouldn't buy again.
For someone that whenever they go and have a salon nail appointment with gels they usually last a day or two.
These gel strips last more than two weeks on my nails. 💞
Already did a manicure with this plate and as usual, it picked up perfectly as with all my other MoYou plates. They're my favorite and the best quality plates I've used and I have quite the collection!
I decided to take a break from the salon to save money. But couldn’t be bothered doing my own gels as it takes forever and I can never get it to last more than a week! Had these on for 2 weeks and still going strong. Really easy to apply and look great!
I was going away for a girls weekend and wanted something that would last and look pretty. These were delivered fast and I was not disappointed. They look so good and had so many compliments. I’d buy again without hesitation.
First time I have used these and have to say I am quite impressed, look nice and very easy to do
