Nail Art Factory

I bought the pele nail art set after going to the Honolulu swap meet.
I can’t even get it to stamp, I paid 20. For 3 disks 3 polishes and stamper.
I usually check every thing on Unilocal before I buy. The demo they did looked nice, looked simpe enough. Didnt lay long, but if it worked even for a few days on nail, I would have been happy.
I could not even get stamp to transfer after using scrapper. I feel pretty ripped off.
DON’T BUY PELE NAIL ART!!!

BAD PRODUCT!!! My daughter received this as a gift for Christmas. You are supposed to put on a base color of «regular» nail polish on first, stamp the designs on next, then follow-​up with a top coat. The first stamp she tried did not transfer to the stamper after several tries. So, she decided to move on to another design. This one actually worked. It transfered to the stamper and then to her fingernail… the first time only. Several more attempts were made to place the same design on the second finger, with no luck. A couple times she was able to get partial designs to transfer to her nails, but, of course, this was not the desired effect. We tried to wash the «special» nail polish off the nails that received partial designs and try again, but that didn’t work either. My daughter was frustrated and just finished painting her nails with regular nail polish and put everything away. I suspect the PELE nail art will never come out again!

Do not buy from this company. I purchased the 2 plate kit that includes 3 polishes and was charged $ 49. The website (
) charges $ 30. To make matters worse, the sales girl filed my stamper with an emery board and now the stamper does not work so I have to purchase a new stamper in order to use my kit. STAY AWAY FROM THIS KIOSK. The Konad nail stamping kit sold at Longs Drugs works fine and is half the cost.

I had the exact same experience as the first reviewer. But I shall only give one star. I was searching for a gift for a friend and got sucked into the sales pitch of the nail art stamping products. I bought the small set with three plates and a stamper with one bottle of nail polish. The next day, the exact Konad nail art items went on sale at Longs. It was way cheaper at Longs. So I went back to the kiosk to return what I purchased. And guess what, the owner remembered me, and as I was walking up to her, she immediately pointed to the very small, non-​prominent, «NO REFUNDS» sign. I told her I just purchased it yesterday and she said «Sorry honey, no refunds.» There was no consolation, didn’t offer me anything more like the other reviewer. They were just plain rude, so I walked away upset.
Because I was stuck with all this nail stamping equipment, I decided to give it a try on my own. Not very good. Let me state again, NOT VERY GOOD. It is not as easy and pretty as the demonstration they give you. It’s hard, messy, and doesn’t work! I still have all the stamps, if anyone wants to take it from me, go ahead. So glad I didn’t give it away to my friend. What a baloney gift!

I should have used my better judgment than to buy something from a mall kiosk, but hopefully this will help someone else from making the same decision.
Recently, I stopped by this kiosk, looking for a gift for a friend. Having used the nail art before made by Konad, I thought maybe buying some knock off, off brand from the mall kiosk would have a bargain, but was I way off. Caught up in the moment, the sales lady offered me a «deal» or «special price» for a set of 3, 10mL bottles of special polish with 4 pattern disks, stamper and scraper for $ 59.99, and for purchasing that, a small set of 3 mini bottles of special polish, stamper and scraper, and 2 pattern disks for an additional $ 29.99.
Eager to buy the gift, and caught up with the lady’s spiel about how their stamper with this Pele brand nail art kit would pick up smaller detail than the one they sell at Shirokiya (Konad brand), in the moment, I gave in. Then shortley after, I went to check the prices for similar polish online and at shirokiya and found that I had made a HUGE overpayment. the plates, should only be ~$ 5/​each at the most, and the polish, ~$ 7/​each for the 10mL, $ 3 to $ 4 for the mini, and $ 7 for a double sided stamper, based on the Konad brand. $ 74 in products at most, if you are buying everything individually, not even the discounted set they had. For the set of Pele brand, the total was $ 89.98, with the special ‘discounted’ price… true, its only a $ 16 difference in price, but here is the worst part.
I had went back to the kiosk, before even trying the stuff, trying to return it, but then as it states on the receipt you sign, and on a small posting by the register, NO REFUNDS. Being very disapointed in not being able to return the items, the half business owner tried to console by offering me some stick on nail polish. I waited to talk to the sales girl again, to restate that nowhere did she tell me these items were non returnable. As the topic came up, I asked, isn’t it better for customer relations to have some sort of customer satisfaction and care about maintaining customer relations? Her reply, ‘honey, even if I loose you as one customer, as a business person, why do I care? There are 10 other customers right over there.’ She was so very rude about it. The business partner at least tried to fake that customer relations are important and offering some items as consolation, hence my reason for offering a 2^nd star instead of just 1 star.
So in the end, I went home with my consolation nail stickers and non refundable set. But the worst part? after all the hype about how much better their product is compared to the product from Shirokiya? I tried a few nail designs last night, then this morning in the shower, the shitty cheap paint from some unknown Pele brand ‘professional’ quality special polish, made in china, wiped right off with soap and water in the shower, just like little kid’s pretend polish does. Maybe she is right, and the stamper can pick up additonal small detail the konad may not be able to pick up by some un-​experienced person, but the stamper alone (she priced at $ 25) is not worth enough to buy a whole set of stuff from this place.
Let my lesson help someone else — skip this kiosk and just go for a brand name of polish that you can at least find on google. You will save money, frustration, and the disappointment of a poor low quality product.
