Ciate Nail Polishes

I love Ciate nail polishes, I literally cannot get enough of them, from their wide variety of shades to the gorgeous packaging complete with pretty bow! They really do hit the spot when it comes to luxuary nail polishes.

I love the shade Pocket Money for a classy neutral nude look, and play date for a fun, sassy weekend look.

These polishes apply like a dream, look flawless even on ridged and uneven nail surfaces and are chip resistant. The pigmentation level is excellent and one coat is enough although I always do two. 

Ciate also do the 'Caviar' manicure which consists of applying thousands of tiny caviar sized beads on top of a base coat of nail polish. 

 

I apply some as an accent to the tip of the nail on the ring finger but then leave the rest of my nails just painted plain. I have seen people with every nail entirely covered in the caviar beads but I think it looks a little tacky not to mention impractical! The beads stay on long enough for a night out but certainly wouldn't survive day to day wear!

Tip: To give them more staying power apply a clear topcoat to seal them onto the nail. 

If you've not tried Ciate I recommend you do! They easily give Essie, Nails Inc, OPI and China Glaze a run for their money!  

Prices are from around £5 on eBay to £9 direct from Ciate but they are a large sized bottle at 13.5ml and well worth the money.
