Today I have some design to share, using a lovely plate from Nicole Diary!

I was recently sent Nicole Diary's 130 plate from Born Pretty, and it's adorable!


This plate is winter-themed, full of cute icy designs; polar bears, penguins, and ice cubes.
The plate had six full nail sized designs and a bunch of smaller designs. The plate is perfect for the wintery/cold months, but it's got so many cute designs that I plan on wearing all year round. There are some cute designs that are great for reverse stamping, and so many mix-and-match possibilities.

This plate is full of beautiful and delicate designs, and if you like geometric, line-based designs (like me) then this plate is perfect for you. There is a huge variety of designs, and the designs are perfect for mix and matching. You can create intricate manis, so simple, subtle ones, and they'll all look beautiful.

Hi!

Today I have a plate to show you from Nicole Diary to share with you! This plate was kindly gifted to me by Born Pretty.

It was love at first sight between me and this plate, I absolutely love the designs and I've been using this plate a lot recently. Moon, trees, water, silhouettes... this plate has so many different things I love on it. This plate is made up of mostly smaller designs, and it has a few really awesome overlapping designs, which are super fun to create different looks with using a variety of colours and gradients.

Today I have Beauty Big Bang's XL-030 plate to show you. Which is a beautiful Christmas-themed stamping plate. This is my favourite Christmas plate this year. I absolutely love the designs this plate has.

The plate has 12 large, full nail sized designs as well as 4 smaller designs, all perfect for December. I love Christmas and so I was super excited to try this plate out and I've been wearing a lot of the designs over the last couple of weeks. The plate has a variety of designs, from cartoony Christmas animals (which are fun to do reverse stamping) to beautiful festive patterns.

Today I have Beauty Big Bang's XL-017 plate to show you. Which is an awesome geometric-themed plate.

The plate has 14 large, full nail sized designs. I love the variety of designs on this plate. I am a big fan of geometric patterns on my nails and this plate is great for that. A lot of these designs don't necessarily lean towards reverse stamping, but I think most of them would look awesome done as a gradient, but I prefer these designs a simple one colour stamped over another. If you're a fan of geometric nails then you should definitely consider looking at this plate.

Today I have Beauty Big Bang's XL-012 plate to show you. Which is an absolutely adorable owl-themed plate.

The plate has 7 large designs and 16 small-medium size designs. I love owls so this plate was one I knew I needed to try. The designs are all super cute. I love so many of the designs on this plate that I can't pick a favourite. The individual owls and owl eyes would be great for mix and match nails. The designs are perfect for year-round, if you like owls then this is definitely a plate you should consider picking up.

NEW PLATE OBSESSION!!

Before I start this post, be warned that I absolutely ADORE this plate. Literally, there will be no cons in this post, just pros!

Now my love of this plate is all personal preference, as with all of Moyou London's plates, there are fantastic quality so it all comes down to your preference in designs and this plate just has so much I love!

The packaging for these plates is super cute...

This plate in number 03 in Moyou's limited edition #SummerVibes collection. The whole of the collection looks stunning, but I decided that I would just get 03, and I'm so glad I did.

This plate screams summer, and although it looks like our heat wave is coming to an end, summer has only just started for my nails now that I have this plate.

The designs are very summery - obviously - and have a tropical theme to them.

My favourite design is the water one, I have wanted to own a plate with a water-looking design for so long... And now I do! Yay!

This plate is great for mix and matching and reverse stamping.

I love using this plate with bright colour polishes and the designs all look beautiful on my nails.

This #SummerVibes collection is limited edition for this summer, so if you're planning on buying any of them then I recommend you do it sooner rather than later!

The #SummerVibes plates retail for £6.99 and you can get them from www.moyou.co.uk

Today I have another extremely summery stamping plate from Beauty Big Bang to show you, with a variety of beach and vacation themed designs. This plate is BBBXL-002, and it's definitely going to be one I used a lot this summer.

I am mostly obsessed with the anchor/captains wheel design, as well as the fish/mermaid print (how did I not already own a fish print stamping plate until now!?). This plate has 7 full nail sized designs as well as 17 smaller designs. I personally gravitate to full nail designs most of the time, but do enjoy using the smaller ones for accent nails. I really impressed with the quality of this plate (and the other plate I reviewed by Beauty Big Bang), and for only £2.69 per XL plate they are a bargain. If you are going on vacation this summer and looking for a fun stamping plate to accompany you, then look no further. 

Designs using this plate...

This plate currently retails for only £2.69...

When I saw this Born Pretty stamping plate, Sketches BP-X39, I immediately thought of Moyou's Scandi collection (which I absolutely love), so I knew I wanted to try it. This is my first square plate from Born Pretty; it is 6*6cm and has 6 designs on it.

The balloon design and the ferris wheel design are very similar to designs on Moyou's Scandi 01, so if you're looking for a cheaper alternative to that Moyou plate, then this is a great choice.

I really like the designs on this plate, they are detailed but with a simple line style, fitting to the 'sketches' name of the plate.

This plate would definitely be better for someone with longer nails. My nails are short so I lose out on a lot of the design. 

My favourite way to use this plate is to take smaller elements of the designs, rather than use it for full nail designs.

This plate retails for only £1.59.
