5.0 out of 5 stars Super deal! May 10, 2010

By loves2stamp

I am so glad I bought these image plates! I have tried quite a few of the plates in this set and have not had any problems with them. The price was irresistible for me, I will order many more plates if BundleMonster comes up with more designs. I do wish they had some larger designs that would cover the whole nail (the largest designs in this set do not cover my thumb nail completely)
*I measured one of the full nail designs and it was approximately 1cm X 1.4cm. Hope this info helps!

Helpful hints;

-Make sure you remove the protective plastic cover from the front of the plates before attempting to use.
-Wet a cotton ball w/ pure acetone and hold it with tweezers in order to avoid ruining the designs on your nails. Use the acetone soaked cotton ball to wipe nail polish off of the plates and stamper. The plate should be dry before applying more polish.
-Use a thick highly pigmented polish for stamping.
-Work fast! If you take too long the polish will dry on the plate or stamper and you will not get it to transfer.
-If you are working fast and the polish does not transfer try another type of polish, some polished are extra quick drying.
-Be gentle when you apply top coat or you may smear your design.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product - Great Price! August 8, 2010

By M. Patterson

I bought these plates because my daughters spent the night at a friends and came home with the cutest nails. When I asked about them their friend showed me her 'name brand' set that she paid about $50 for. It had two plates some polish, a stamper & a scraper. I thought it was adorable but was not going to pay that kind of money. Bargain hunter than I am I searched for a better deal. Which led me to Bundle Monster and another 'off brand' that I found on ebay for similar value.

I bought both sets. The received the ebay ones first. They were a great value came with some extras & offered cute plates (a few with the same designs from one plate to the next). They even offered the same designs and our neighbor girl had on her 'name brand' plates (none of which were 'full nail' or 'french tip' images). I was quite satisfied but have to say when I received the plates from Bundle Monster I soon realized I preferred their images better. They were larger for the most part & a much nicer selection over all (I hope they continue to add to their designs).

The ONLY Con I would mention is that the edges seem a bit sharp (compared to both the name brand & the other off brand I purchased) so I would keep them out of reach from young fingers even if they are just 'looking at the designs'. My teenage daughter cut herself on one not paying attention.

For those of you who are having problems with them here are some tips & step by step instructions I use (mentioned by others but with so many reviews I will post it as well).

Tips to Know Before you get started:

1) REMOVE the plastic film: They come with a plastic film when you first receive them that sometimes can not be seen.... I used something sharp (tweezers) to cut a spot & then removed the rest with my fingers. If you do not remove the film the plates do not work.

2) Use THICK but NOT Quick Dry Contrasting Nail Polish for Images: If you do not have a 'thick' polish & do not want to spend $10+ on the 'name brand' let one of yours dry out a bit or go to your local salon that does nails & see if they have some 'old stuff' that you can buy for pennies on the dollar.

If you use quick dry you may not get the transfer done quick enough before it drys.

I have tried a few variations of colors but for obvious reasons white & black work best. A dark color with a white or light pink print or a light color with a black or similar dark will have the best results. Do some practice ones on something to see what you really like.

3) Use one coat cover for Bottom Coat & Top Coat: I recommend using nail polish that IS quick dry & only takes one coat to cover for both the Bottom & Top Coats (not images). This is because the more nail polish you have on your nails the more likely it is to smear your images. Using quick dry also helps with this.

4) Use a Good Acetone nail remover: It seems this works best for cleaning the plates. Some remover seems to thin out the polish & make it more difficult to transfer.

5) Let the Plates DRY completely: After each transfer you will need to clean the plate (if there is polish in the image you will not get a good transfer). When you wipe the polish out let the remover dry before you put polish on it. Again it will thin out the polish making for a poor transfer.

6) Use Cotton Rounds instead of Balls: Cotton Rounds make it a lot easier to manage the nail remover without messing up your nails. I use a nail polish remover with a pump so (one touch remover) I don't have to do too much with my hands.

7) Between EACH STEP let your nails dry for the best possible results.

8) If you don't have a plate holder (which I highly recommend) use double sided scotch tape to hold the plates in place on whatever you are scraping the extra paint onto.

9) I also recommend the two sided stamper with the smaller stamp. It is much easier to ensure the best image placement for smaller images.

10) If you have larger nail beds you may want to overlap designs. Everyone has different nail bed sizes so it would be difficult to accommodate everyone. With practice one could learn to line up the designs for a fuller image but I would recommend either using more than one design or just overlapping them. It can create a nice effect as well.

10) Clean EVERYTHING thoroughly when you are done: This will be important so that your future painting will be more successful & so that the plates, stamper & scraper last longer.

My personal steps:

1) Wash hands & gently push back cuticles that might be up on nail bed.

2) Get out all needed products & items.

3) Paint nails with bottom coat. Let dry completely (VERY important for best results)

4) Prepare image plate, image nail polish & cotton round with polish remover.

5) Working Quickly - Paint a nice coat of image paint over your image, scrape away extra, stamp with stamper, line up with nail bed, roll on fast, firmly & carefully ensuring you get the entire image to transfer. (If you have never seen this done check out a youtube video on it).

6) After each image you will have to clean the plate completely (especially if you are using the same image for each nail). Be sure to do so carefully not to smudge your other nails. Some recommend using tweezers - I find if I use a Cotton round instead of a ball I don't need to. Again let the polish remover dry on the plate before adding the polish again.

7) I recommend doing all your images on one hand BEFORE putting on the top coat. Just be gentle not to 'bump' them.

8) Once your first hand is complete put on your top coat & let this dry Completely before starting your second hand.

9) Repeat for second hand!

Once you get the hang of it use multiple designs & colors. We have used it to stamp our phones & more (and change when we get bored)

Hope you enjoy this as much as I did! All the little Girls in my life (age appropriate of course) will be getting this for the next 'gift giving' occasion!! Read more ›

I like this product, not the greatest but good for the price.

PROS:
-Cheap
-You don't feel bad about scratching them
-A lot of cute designs that are non floral unlike KONAD (a lot of floral)
-Full finger design fits me just fine except for the thumb (it's a bit small)
-Plenty of designs to choose from

CONS:
-Edges are really SHARP
-The bigger designs tend to smear
-Disregarded some of the larger designs because it just looked like a blob even after I scraped it thin
-The metal is a lot thinner
-The designs are not as detailed

5.0 out of 5 stars They are GREAT better than Konad! May 23, 2010

By Sandra M.G.

I loved my Bundle Monster IP's they are soo cool. Fast shipping I ordered Tuesday and received them on Friday. The images are soo many to pick from its like a kid at a candy store LOL. I think they are better than Konad I have 10 Konad IP's and with Konad you can't get every single part of the image BUT with the Bundle Monster you can with the very first try! I got my family and friends wanting to buy the Bundle Monster IP's. I would really love to see what else Bundle Monster comes up with next they should consider making their own polishes and tools and more IP's. I will defiantly keep buying from Bundle Monster!! GREAT PRODUCT!!!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Very few of the plates actually work July 30, 2011

By S. Sabin

Amazon Verified Purchase

I was so excited to get this product (as I am a nail art aficionado)...that was until the plates arrived. The plates arrived in the same condition that others have described in the other reviews (all in one package, stacked one on top of the other, and with plastic film on front and paper backing on the back). I removed the plastic film and used (Konad brand) special polish, (Konad brand) scraper, and (Konad brand) stamper. I'm only stating this so that if you are reading this you know that I did everything 'right' and these plates had they been usable should have worked. I worked quickly as I always do and several designs failed to transfer to the stamper at all (and of course the ones that didn't work were the ones I wanted this set for in the first place) and several of the other images only partially worked (only half of the design would transfer to the stamper). I know there are those who will say I didn't work fast enough but that is just not true I scraped and stamped within seconds and I even tried the plates with regular nail polish (China Glaze, OPI, Finger Paints, and ORLY) and got the same result. Now before I continue I would like to state that this is not my first time to the dance. I have a bunch (30 or so) Konad plates and I have been doing nail stamping art for a couple months now (on myself and on others), I know all the ins and outs, tricks and tips of stamping nail art and still couldn't get the plates to work. I am really upset that only 10 of the designs (designs not plates) have actually worked and the rest are useless. After I closely examined the plates I think the problem is that the image is not cut deeply enough into the plates.... If I run my finger over the Konad plates, then over the Bundle Monster plates there is a distinct difference (the Konad designs are cut more deeply into the plates). I don't know if I got faulty plates or they are all like this but I am left wanting my money back because right now the plates are $18 paper weights. I will not buy this brand again I'd rather spend my money on Konad plates because they actually work. Read more ›
