a big THANK YOU

Hello everyone,

besides my Ciaté Mini Mani Month polish review, I wanted to shout out a big THANK YOU! to the Ciaté Germany Team. Actually the Public Relations agency for Ciaté here in Germany, Swiss and Austria. They were so kind to send out a little surprise to me and I am really so thankful.

Just to clear things up for everyone, no one is sponsoring or paying me to do these reviews.
Besides the things on the following pictures I bought all the Ciaté products, that I did review so far (Caviar Manicure Kit and Mini Mani Month gift set) and will review the rest of the month (Tree Trinkets), myself.

So on to the sweet surprise I have received today.
They sent this cute full sized paint pot nude color, called PP107 pocket money. I will review this later on, but from the first impression I really love this color. I am so happy!
They also sent me this tiny fine glass nail file, which I already tried out and must say is really good.
I never used glass nail files, but always wanted to try so I am super excited that I can call one my own.
And last but not least a Ciaté key chain holder as well as a nice letter saying that they love my nails and offering support whenever I may have questions.

So again, thanks a lot. It feels good to know that you like my blog and posts.

I really enjoy blogging so far and I really love Ciaté polishes, I think they are worth supporting by buying their products. So I will keep doing that in the future.

Have a great night,

Mara

[Review] Ciaté’s Mini Mani Month 2013 (US) – PP017 boudoir

Hello everyone,

can you believe it, today I am already reviewing the 10th of 16 mini polishes from the Mini Mani Month gift set.
Followed by the 4 pearl minis, as well as the toppers.

After that I will move on to the Tree Trinkets gift set, which contains 6 fun mini glitter polishes and as sad as it is, after that my Ciaté month will already be over. Don’t worry, I will keep posting nail Ciaté designs and new polishes though ;)

But like I said, until that we still have some time so please enjoy today’s post with my favorite red shade from the Mini Mani Month gift set.

Like I said before, I prefer this kind of a darker red shade to a bright popping red like PP105 play date.
Ciaté’s Website describes it as a sassy flirtatious red and I can just approve to that.
It is very pretty and classy and it is a color that can be combined with almost anything. I don’t understand why this is not marked as a bestseller on their Website.
Later on I will show you that this color also matches very well with the golden Ciaté caviar manicure pearls.

Besides that, the quality was great as always. The consistency was nice and liquidy, the dry time is as fast as usual (about 5-10 minutes). You will need about 3 coats to get a nice opaque finish.

My opinion: 5/5

If you love red polishes and you are looking for a nice more darker red then play date, I suggest you to go to Ciaté’s Website and buy this nail polish. The price is the same as usual, £9.

Let me know what you think. Do you happen to know any other great red polishes I should try?
