So i got this little hat box full of Ciaté Paint Pots at christmas, used them a couple of times but me being me forgot about them til a sudden urge to occupy my mind today by painting my nails took over!! & i saw this in my collection! so i thought i'd try all the colours & let u guys know what they're like! It was £19.58 from asos (the collection isn't avaliable anymore but some of the colours still are individually) & for that price you got 6 colours & a top coat! which comes at about £2.85 a polish, when they retail individually for £7.35 so good value!
Plastic Fantastic

Went on well after one coat but needed 2 for a strong colour, really gorgeous pastel pink with a slight purple look. Still avaliable individually on asos & possibly my favorite of this collection.
Knickerbockerglory

I'd buy it just for the name, it went on well with the first coat so in a rush it would be enough coverage, but i'd shove another one on if i had the time! A gorgeous barbie pink! Chips like a mofo! i love the colour but literally have to touch it up the same day i apply! got a really good dupe though from no7 called berrylicious which doesnt chip as much!
Mistress

Really classic red & need a couple of coats of it to reach its potential & a great dupe for Nails inc Victoria & albert! Still avaliable on asos!
Dangerous Affair

A little uneven application but could be fixed on the 3rd coat but could mean it chips easily!
Mines A Mocha

Awful awful application such a wishy washy colour & after a second coat a horrible brown colour! still avaliable but i wouldnt bother if i was you!
Paprazzi

Again awful awful application it doesnt go on even & couldnt be corrected with more coats added! which is such a shame because its a lovely deep dark red which i love, i'm sure an alternative could be sought out!
So there it is, they're not the best nail polishes, the application can sometimes be fine & then other times awful so i wouldnt recommend the brand really unless theres a colour which your cant live without, if thats the case then be prepared to reapply because they do chip & peel!
Sadly today being a sunday & the fact that most of my friends had a hangover so wern't online to chat & keep me busy & there being nothing on tv my fingers started to press buttons & i ended up on the mac website! i'm actually scared by the reality of what i've done. i crumbled & went on a brush shopathon,
heres the damage
i got another 187 stippling brush,
190 - foundation brush
150 - large powder brush
168 - angled contour brush
194 - concealer brush
116 - blush brush
i resisted products which is something but still i will receive the package with utter shame! but it would be rude to send them back i think so will have to keep them i suppose! ah well! its my friends fault! i can blame everything on him for a month without him being able to reply! result the month long shopathon begins now! yey! :)
may do another blog later to keep me busy about products i cant live without or something!
thanks for reading ladies
cya later
