Ciaté: Refresher
Here we have Ciaté 's paint pot in "Refresher" a pale powder blue from their SS/09 Candy Couture collection. Ciaté was developed by Brit born nail brand celebrity manicurist Charlotte Straughan.
The colour you see in the bottle is what you get on the nails, which is exactly what I expect from a nail polish. The consistency of this polish is lovely, it is easily applied with no streaks, the first coat is quite sheer, so a 2nd coat is needed to show the true colour. However, I applied 3 coats as I am a bit extra - no base or top coat though. I have been wearing it for 2 days now and so far no chips, I will keep you updated to see how long it lasts, I also got the speed coat which is supposed to make the polish last for 10 days - review will be done once I have tested it.
Apple & Custards (Mint Green)
Sugared Almond (Dusky Pink)
Refresher (Powder Blue)
Lemon Sherbet (Lemon Yellow)
Fruity Pops (Sherbet Orange)
Cookies & Cream (Pastel Grey)
First of all, I give this company a 10/10 for their packaging, it's SO cute, the shape of the bottle is rather special too, the bow adds a touch of sophistication and lures me in. I wish I had every single colour out on display, I love nails inc packaging and this beats it! I have been sent quite a few beautiful colours, and will be updating you as I update my nails...
Price: £9 per 15ml
This is quite expensive, I would recommend these for special occasions or as a treat for yourself, it would make a great present too.
TIP: Why not decorate your own bottles with ribbon if you are a sucker for packaging like me?
Refresher, is the palest powder blue with the tiniest hint of lilac in it, it's a truly beautiful, unique colour that stands out from the rest. The candy couture collection was inspired by the catwalk trends as demonstrated below. I don't know about you but I like my nail polish to match what I am wearing!
Below is one way that I will wear this polish. I still haven't worn this dress that I purchased a while ago... Now I have "Refresher" to complete the look!
Do you match your nail polish to your outfit?

love those shoes!!! and the eyeshadows!! very pretty
I don't match the colour, but I don't want it to clash either..so if it's a black outfit, it would be a dark plum or dark red shade... you get the idea, lol! ;)
