I want it to end with a bang, which is why I am going to show you my whole Ciaté Collection. Besides two polishes I bought all of these products myself.

my full-sized Ciaté paint pots
I decided the best way of showing all the Ciaté products would be by the Set’s I bought them in.
6 x mini polishes (Mistress, Pillow Fight, Rain Coat, Ferris Wheel, Power Dressing & Amazing Gracie)
4 empty mini paint pot bottles
6 x suspension top coats
12 x 5g Glitters
7 x professional nail tools (1 scooper, 2 mini test tubes, 1 petri dish, 1 funnel, 1 mini nail file, 1 roll of customisable labels)
This is probably the product I wanted the most right after I saw it on the PR information. I mean come on, for a nail polish junkie like me this set is heaven. Who doesn’t want to mix their own polishes?
This is the one of the polishes I did not by myself. I received this in a small appreciation package sent to me by Ciaté Germany, along with a mini glass nail file and a Ciaté key holder.
With time I also collected and tried some of their nail care products and base / top coats.
Ciaté – Nail Tonic (nail strengthener)
Ciaté – Mattnifficent (matte top coat)

Be careful not to keep the matte top coat for too long or it might get ruined. It happened to mine after about 1 and a half years.
Ciaté – Speed Coat (fast dry top coat)
This is probably the best fast drying top coat I have tried. It dries the nail polish to a good amount within 30 – 60 seconds I would say. Would definitely recommend it to any of you and will keep buying it myself.

Ciaté – love me oil (almond cuticle oil)
I simply love this cuticle oil. I am a big fan of almond products and I feel this oil is moisturizing and nurishing. It is quickly applied and the cuticles soak it in pretty fast.
I also love the cuticle butter from Burt’s Bees, but I don’t use it too much because I don’t like wasting the product by having to apply it with my finger.
Do you own any other Ciaté polishes or products in general, which I should try?
you need a chic and elegant nail design for a little black dress or your prom?
Maybe today’s nail art is what you are looking for.
Here is what I used:
Ciaté – PP050 ladylike luxe
p2 – sand style – 030 seductive
You start applying two coats of Ciaté’s ladylike luxe and let them dry. To create the across tip you can either use the tip stickers or hand paint it. I applied two thin coats as well.
You could stop at the point above or apply dots with a dotting tool.
Looking at the design now I feel the dots are too big^^
What do you think? Do you like it better with or without dots?
jamming to the Breaking Bad soundtracks I am writing this post. God I can not tell you enough how much I love this show.but today’s nail art is not about that…..later.
For today I have a more mediterranean nail design for you.
Here is what I used
p2 – LE sea’ la vie – 030 navy
Essence Nail Art Effect Topper – 03 hello holo
O.P.I. – Alpine Snow
Wet n Wild – megalast – E2143 I red a book
Ciaté – PP050 ladylike luxe
p2’s navy was applied on the pinky finger, Essence’s Hello holo on the ring finger, O.P.I.’s Alpine Snow on the middle finger and Wet n Wild’s I red a book was applied on the pointy finger as well as the thumb. On each nail applied two coats. Only hello holo got three coats to get a stronger holo finish.on Alpine Snow I also used p2’s navy, painted 4 horizontal lines and let it dry properly. On the thumb I used Ciaté’s PP050 ladylike luxe and painted an anchor with my self-cut paint brush. The gold polish was still wet when I placed the gold nail beads. After that I used white polish to paint on the heart on the middle finger, let it dry and painted over it with th red Wet n wild polish. To set everything in place I applied a clear top coat.
