Anyhow, today I' going to review the nail polish brand Ciate. Yes I know they have a little thing above the e, but I'm too lazy to try to find it haha.
I own three of the polishes, I purchased them on Beauty Bay.
I own Oil Slick, Sugared Almonds and Apples and Custard. The pink and green are both creams and the Oil Slick colour is a duochrome I guess you could say, the type of colour you can get on cars.
Oil Slick is such a cool colour, I've had it on my toes for about 2 months. It's mainly gold, but then it has a blue and green duochrome. It's streaky when you apply it but it doesn't chip very easily and you could possibly get away with one coat.
Sugared Almonds is the most amazing pinky nude. You look so chic when you wear it and it's very flattering. I find it hard to get properly opaque though, you can sort of still see your nail after 3 coats, I don't mind though because it's so nice. It chips quite badly though, which is a bit of a bummer. I definitely recommend this colour if you are looking at getting a Ciate polish though.
The colour I'm wearing at the moment is Apples and Custard. It's a sort of milky green, which sounds awful but it's actually a nice colour. The cream polishes from Ciate are absolutely dreamy, they are so smooth and creamy, but they do chip badly. I used 2 coats and it's a bit more opaque than Sugared Almonds. I wouldn't usually go for a colour like this, it's very unusual, but I'm glad I chose it. I'm wearing with a Cutex top coat for extra shine, hopefully it'll last a bit longer.
A few extra points, they come with adorable bows on them, attached with an elastic. Weirdly the pink colour had the bow glued to the front, no elastic. I also broke the one on the green colour haha, as you can see in the first photo. I also bought the Sugared Almonds colour because Fleur from fleurdeforce loves it. I'm a huge fan of hers hahaha.
I really do recommend these polishes and the Ciate brand, they are nice and a break from brand such as OPI and Essie.
Thank you for reading!
Au Revoir!
