Ciaté Mini-Mani Month Review: Part 1

Hi guys!! Once again I apologise for the delay in any posts! Since I've started my new job I just haven't been keen on doing anything in my spare time really but I have had some time off over Christmas so I have this post, another and maybe a video all planned s I can maybe do them this week!

This post is going to be a review on the colours, top coats, glitters and caviars I have tried from the Ciaté Mini-Mani Month advent calendar.

First off I wore boudoir & one of the caviars (the name has eluded me and I can't get to the bottle to tell you I'm afraid! But as soon as I can, I will comment it if anyone would like to know!)


Sorry about the lighting I took it as soon as I had finished and I hadn't even tidied the edges! The red is a gorgeous colour and so glossy the compliments I had were amazing! I did struggle with the caviar but it was the first time I had ever used them so hopefully the next time I won't be so cautious and then they won't fall off so quickly!

Next I tried Serendipity,

 The effect was aboslutely gorgeous! Sadly even with a base and top coat it peeled off very easily and I don't know why! So it didn't last long but was beautiful nonetheless! I don't know why I never took a better photo if I'm honest! Or if I did I can't find one now sadly. Such a beautiful colour!

Next I tried Amazing Gracie, a beautiful almost white pink colour.

This is 3 coats and it was still quite pale but it was still beautiful on. One coat gives a nice sheen to your nails and it looks really natural, perfect for a French manicure! I felt very feminine with this colour.

Last but not least! I am currently wearing Hopscotch, Snow Globe & Jingle Belle.
I apologise for the focus of this one! But I think this is one of my fav mani's I have ever done, at first I thought it was quite cluttered but it's really beautiful, especially when the foil bits hit the light and the glitter shimmers. The Jingle Belle may be a bit more noticeable on a lighter colour but it still looks beautiful and it's easier to use than the caviar!

I will slowly get around to trying all the colours and effects and I'll show you a few each time!
Hope you enjoyed and my review has been helpful! See you shortly! xo
