NailPolishCanada sent me this Konad Basic Stamping Kit for review. Check it out. :)
The details: You can find this kit on their website here, price is $17.00
Konad products are the original when it comes to stamping. Their quality far exceeds any of the "fauxnad" products.This kit includes literally everything you need to get started with nail art stamping.
- Stamper
- One image plate (m36)
- 5ml bottle of Konad Special White stamping polish
- A metal blade scraper
I"ve always had a problem with these metal scrapers. They prove to be nearly impossible to clean with the little ridges and holes.
Also the metal blade leaves gouges and scratches on the image plates. I stick to the alternate use of an old plastic credit card or gift card. It never scratches and it's super easy to clean.
For this sample look I used China Glaze Electric Beat and all of the products within the kit.
Then I added a little opalescent rhinestone to the flower centers that I bought from DollarNailArt.com a loooong time ago.
My end opinion?
This kit is great to get you started! It's not a great use of your money if you already have nail stamping tools. I think $17 is on the high side as well, but a lot of the simple polishes available on NailPolishCanada are more costly than I'm used to paying. This kit has high quality products that will last you a long time.

I have the same kit, and sometimes I have my problems to apply those small flowers. But after two or three tries I manage!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Have every tool I need except for the stamping polish...
ReplyDeletegreat post. ive been wanting to try stamping but i didnt even know where to begin with what to order. i might try this one!
ReplyDeleteI'm dying to do some stamping on my nails but I just don't seem to get the hand of it... I've tried so many times but none of them were good. I can never get the full design on the stamper. Do you have any special tric to get it right or is it really just a matter of practice?
ReplyDeleteI've got this kit but with different stamping plate!
ReplyDeleteI think the images of your plate are prettiest

I honestly think the other types of stamping kits like the ones from Monster bundle and bornprettystore.com are great. The only reason I would think about buy a real konad if I could find out that the whole nail images actually cover those with longer nails.
ReplyDeleteI have a pair of plates of Konad, and another pair of Essence, and I don't see a huge quality's difference . My favourite of Konad is the Halloween plate, is really nice. Kisses
