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.

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?
did you see me crazy colorful dotticure from Mara’s Birthday Nail Art Month – DAY 2?
Today I have a more discreet one for you, using only pastel colors.
Here is what I used:
Ciaté – PP151 Loop the Loop
Ciaté – PP104 pepperminty
Maybelline – Colorshow – LE Bleached Neons – 241 sun flare, 242 coral heat, 243 tropink, 244 chic chartreuse
ORLY – harmonious mess
O.P.I. – my boyfriend scales walls
For this manicure all you need are the different colors and a dotting tool. Just like the other mani I already showed you, start dotting the colors onto the nail. You can mix up bigger and smaller dots if you want. I only used the end creating bigger dots. Start with one color dotting away on each nail. After that use the next color and continue until there are no blank spots left.
This is without a top coat
This is with O.P.I.’s matte top coat
I like the pastel version of this manicure better than the colorful one.
Maybelline – Colorshow – LE Bleached Neons – 241 sun flare, 242 coral heat, 243 tropink
At first you appy Big yellow Taxi to all nails except the ring finger. There you apply Alpine Snow. Let everything dry properly. When the ring finger is dry you take Maybelline’s Bleached Neons and apply a row of dots at the middle of the nail, using Loop the Loop by Ciate.Next to it on the left and the right you apply rows of sun flare, coral heat and tropink.
At last you can apply a clear top coat. That’s all.
