Hey there! Well I did say recently that I had a lot of UberChic Beauty posts coming up and I'm sticking to my promise. In today's post I have the 5 most recent UberChic plates. All of these were single plates (not in a set of 3, like her collections are) and all upheld the standard that I now have for UberChic quality. The plates measure 9.5 x 14.5 mm with 17 x 21 mm full nail images though most plates also have some smaller images of various sizes. Here we have some amazing holiday plates as well as a couple of the plates she released in the fall. I'm terribly behind on blogging but luckily the fall releases are appropriate year-round.
Honestly, when the holidays roll around, all of UberChic Beauty's Christmas plates comes out and stay out until after holiday manis are all done. This 5th holiday plate is no exception. I love the layered options (more about layers coming up next) and that the smaller images seem to pair so well with others. The layered trees, snow and reindeer would make a perfect mani altogether (why didn't I do that?!).

If you're an UberChic collector like me, this plate is easily a must-have. She's taken certain images from all of the previous holiday plates (including this year's) and make their layering partner images. This is so much easier than doing reverse stamping for all the Christmas goodness. Seriously genius!

I absolutely love the concept behind this plate. It's a support plate for anyone who needs it or who wants to share it. There's awareness ribbons but it goes beyond that with motivational sayings and more. It really gets me in the feels. My second mani here is for my mom She has MS and MS's color is orange. She's seriously my hero, especially because of how she deals with this disease. I know she struggles but she doesn't let it bring her down. She's a superstar! The first one is also special because I simply think the world would be a far better place is we could all just be nicer to each other. It's not that hard to be nice to everyone and the effects of being kind far outweigh the effort it takes to be mean.
Note: There is a spelling mistake in this plate so if you purchased the early version you should have been contacted by customer service to see if you wanted the replacement. If you weren't contacted and your plate does have the mistake, please contact them here.
