Born Pretty Store Haul

I recently placed an order with The Born Pretty Store.  This is an online store that sells random beauty products for a low price.  They are based in China so when ordering from the states it takes a little bit to get here.  I place my order on on July 22nd and got it in the mail on August 9th, so it took about 2 weeks to get from China to Houston.  Not bad, in actuality its pretty decent I'd say pretty fast.  I have had Ebay orders take 3 weeks or more at times: I was actually very pleased with the shipping time.
I ordered 6 items and spent a total of $15.41 with free shipping.
The first Item I got was the 3pc double sided nail stamper.  It comes with a double sided nail stamper an two scrapers.  The white size it quite large, a bit bigger than a quarter I would say and very soft/squishy and the smaller red side is about the size of a dime and feels like your regular Konad stamper. This was $4.46
I also ordered 3 nail plates I haven't tried them out yet when I do I'll do a review on them and post pictures.  These I am excited to try.  I got plate #B04, it has a couple random floral motifs, a butterfly and the image that I love the most--flying dandelions.  This plate was $1.99
Then there's plate M77 it has again some floral motifs, a cute bow and some feathers...Super Cute I can't wait to try the feathers I see a peacock inspired nail in my near future. This plate was $2.99.
The last plate is QA81.  This one has 3 full nail size houndstooth designs, floral motifs, what looks to be a dragonfly maybe and a beautiful scroll-filigree design. This plate was $2.99 also.
I added a 99 cent grab bag to my order.  It contained some nail stickers, some water decals and some pink acrylic powder.   I gave the nail stickers to my niece, she's 12 and loves things like that.  The water decals are cute lace hearts and ovals that could be frames for a small nail design.  I have super weak nails so I don't know if I'll use the acrylic or not.  Anyway here's a few pics of those things.

The nail stickers are a gold chrome color and have a Ferrari theme. My nieces nails are pretty short; Hey she's a preteen she doesn't have time to worry abut her nails! :) Anyway she LOVED them.  I have yet to try out the decals but they look cute.

The last thing I ordered was a silicone stamping template but they sent me the wrong one and I had to e-mail them about it.  The one I got was for the french tips and I don't really have a free edge to use them on.  This was $3.99. When I get the right one I'll let you know if I like it.  Well that was all I ordered.

Thanks for reading!
