PUEEN Nail Art Stamp Collection Set 24E - LOVE ELEMENTS - NEW Unique Set of 24 Nailart Polish Stamping Manicure Image Plates Accessories Kit (Totaling 144 Images) with BONUS Storage Case-BH000018

When I saw these plates I had to have them. I really liked all the images and having bought the first set of Pueen plates I didn't think there would be any issues with the quality. I was right :). The shipping time was reasonable, ordered on 8th May and received on 14th May. When the plates came, they came in a white plastic pueen envelope inside a bubble padded shipping envelope so they were well packaged to avoid damage. One of the plates the first one had a deep scrape across it (this had to have happened prior to shipping) but that was only on the plastic, the plate itself was undamaged.The case I got was white and it was perfectly fine no damage no discolouration and very cute. The little screw on the bottom was a bit loose but I understand that this can be tightened. The little plastic envelopes inside the case were quite flimsy, it felt like the slightest thing and they would tear but since I have something else to store my plates in that doesn't matter to me. The plates are the standard plate size but they are ever so slightly thinner than a Konad plate The edges are rounded so its not sharp like some others. There are different sized full nail images all of which are way bigger than the images on my other plates (used Konad M057 to compare). Most of the images are wide enough to just cover my nails but I do have wider nail beds so it will be more than large enough for most people. The images were all really nice, in fact out of all the plates there are probably one of two IMAGES that I might not use. The images are sharp and clear. All in all good quality plates, pretty images and a nice case.

WIFE- I just started doing my nails so I am no expert but this is a fun way to start! These plates are really good! The designs are very nice and they have a huge variety. It bought all the plates in a really cute case. The plates were also protected by a blue plastic film. I bought a stamper separately (Konad Nail Art Double Ended Stamper and Scraper) and it works great; the double ended transfer tool is super helpful. The only thing I would recommend is getting a plastic scraper so you don’t scratch your plates because mine scratched a bit with the metal scrapper and I am now using an old credit card. I haven’t had any problems transferring the polish onto the nail so I haven’t had the need to by any type of special nail polish for this. This is a great way to get really distinct looks in your nails without really doing that much work. I am really enjoying experimenting with colors! It does take a bit of practice but it is not difficult to get started. I have gotten a lot of compliments on my nails!

Pueen really built on their strengths of their first set, and improved their techniques and style to deliver a great new set. The set is full of great, fun, and sophisticated designs, which are very well executed. In their older set, they tried to cram too much into too little space for a few designs, and the results were murky. With these, all of the designs are crisp while keeping some level of intricacy where needed. There is a nice wide range of styles in the set, and the full nail designs measure in at 1.5 x 2 cm, so will fit a lot of nails (those of us with bigger thumbs often have to get creative, but it's easier with these). All of my plates are etched perfectly - deep enough but not too deep, and many are now my most favorite and most-used plates. I'm really looking forward to seeing what Pueen does next with stamping plates!

These image plates have a lot of beautiful designs, Their whimsy and romantic style is for far more than just Valentines day! For never having heard of the pueen brand I am really pleased with the quality, they are paper backed which helps keep down the sharp edges, etched well and have the typical blue sticker that covers the plates, these come off with great ease unlike some other brands I've seen. The designs are plenty wide and I like that most of the images are for full nails, There aren't any french manicure designs and only a few of the tiny ones. My only complaint is that some of the designs are very busy and you don't really realize just how busy they are until you have stamped them. I noticed this especially with one of the rose lace designs, the fish net style in the background made it a little hard to see exactly what it was once stamped.

I love these plates! They're pretty and diverse, but best of all they're well made so even the most intricate design comes out crisp. My first Pueen plate set, I wasn't in love with them because a lot of the designs, especially the more complex ones, didn't transfer properly. But I just did my nails with the LOVE set and all 10 designs I chose came out nice and clear. Also the designs are nice and big so my whole nail is covered, even my thumb,and even when I'm stamping with my worthless left hand and don't line it up properly. I'll probably get rid of the first set and just use these from now on. If you're on the fence about trying nail stamping, buy this set and go for it. There's a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it it goes smoothly and quickly. This set of plates would be a terrific one to get started on. Ten fingers up!

I purchased these in 2015 when I first started stamping. Some of the designs worked great while others did not at all. Fast forward and I have purchased and tried a variety of different stamping plates and polishes. Now that It's 2018, I stamp regularly and know what to do but I still find that a lot of these plates just don't work. I think the designs may not have enough depth to them (maybe?). I say this because even on the plates that do work with even my more opaque stamping polishes it transfers with some transparency. I also work quickly like some reviews have said but nada, some polish does not transfer. It's priced okay and there are a lot of different designs, but keep in mind they're not all perfect. Ive tried different stamping heads as well, in accordance with their manufacturers instructions. (some stamping heads come primed while others do not, some manufacturers say keep away from acetone while others encourage it). I'm hoping things have changed since I bought them and they have more depth to them or something. A lot of these were cute and there's a wide variety of seasonal, florals and lace designs. Just a little disappointing.

So I have been doing this nail thing for 3 yrs now. I have just about every brand out there. So needless to say I have some good plates and So plates so badly done (image won't stamp &/or sharp edges) I also know about a good price to pay for plates. When I first saw these plates I thought the price was a little high. But it comes in a "real" case. Not a paper box stating it was a case but a real leather case with each plate is inside its own sheet protector. The image is so deeply edged in you can feel it completely with just your fingers. I also got the 1st set of Pueen plates (1-25) The plates are not as deeply edges but if you use a higher end or stamping polish you wont even know. I got one in a orange case (my 2nd fav color) and the other one is white. Outside of #34 plate having a really deep and large scratch in it (can't use 2 images) the plates are sweet. The images are great. I'm waiting for the Ankh (an Egyptain Cross) and the Triquetra (a Celtic Trinity Knot) to be the new images on next set of plates to come out. The price is a little high but you are paying for what you get. You get high quality plates and a protective case to hold your plates in. Good buy. There should be a frequent customer discount or lighten up on the price for the next sets.

I got this set specifically for one of the star designs, its hard to use the other plates in this set and my other plates I own because I just love the stars so much! But this set has very nice full nail designs, prettier than most. I have incorporated them into MANY designs, especially over gradients it looks incredible.The designs on this set are really nice, there's lots of generic hearts you can use whenever not just Valentine's Day which is great, I like hearts year round, right now my nails are stamped with one of the heart designs from this set and there are a few specifically for Valentine's Day like they have words written into the design, the plates stamp decent, the designs are deep enough, they pick up well, etc. When I ordered it, mine even came with a free case which was really nice and better than what other companies offer. I would buy this brand again if there's another set with designs I like.
