CIATE MINI MANI MONTH ADVENT CALENDAR DAY.7: FIT FOR A QUEEN

Hey Everyone :-)

Happy Saturday! How are you guys doing today? I hope that you are having a wonderful weekend! I'm feeling a little better today, which I'm very happy about. I hate feeling under the weather, especially during December!

Anyways, it's time to open up hatch number seven in our Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar series. Today's shade from Ciate is a beautiful metallic silver, which I'm very pleased with. Let me know what you think about it in the comments down below :-)

Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Fit For A Queen is a pretty classic metallic silver. It's very smooth and easy to apply. It dries quickly and it's fully opaque in two coats.

Fit For A Queen is a dupe for Zoya Trixie, which I featured along with Miss Mistletoe on day four in the Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar (link to the post HERE). I'm a big fan off metallic nail polishes, because I think that they make the nails look cool, fun and very shiny. Overall, I'm very pleased with Fit For A Queen. The shade is very pretty and it's a great pick for the holidays too! :-)

Fit For A Queen is available at BeautyBay for $13.90, HERE is the link to the nail polish if you are interested :-)

CIATE MINI MANI MONTH ADVENT CALENDAR DAY.6: SUGAR PLUM

Hey Everyone :-)

How are you doing today? I hope that you are having a lovely day! I'm feeling a little under the weather today, but I still wanted to get this post up for you guys. Be sure to let me know what you think about the shade in the comments down below, I would love to hear from you :-)

 Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Sugar Plum is a pretty pastel lilac with a creamy finish. It's easy to apply but it's a little sheer on the first coat. You definitely need to apply a few extra coats for it to look nice and fully opaque on your nails. The consistency is nice and thick, but not too thick to the point that it makes it difficult to work with. It dries quickly and it's fully opaque in three coats.

I'm a huge fan off nail polishes in the pastel family, and Sugar Plum is a great one. I love how pretty and girly it makes my nails look, definitely a must have shade for the Spring and Summer months! :-) 

Sugar Plum is currently on sale at BeautyBay for $10.60, HERE is the link if you are interested :-)

What do you think about Sugar Plum? Do you like to wear pastel nail polishes? Love, Christine♥

CIATE MINI MANI MONTH ADVENT CALENDAR DAY.5: ENCORE

Hey Everyone :-)
How are you guys doing? Are you having a good start to December? It's December 5th, which means that it's time to open up the fifth hatch in our Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar. Are you ready? Let's jump right into today's Ciate nail polish! :-)

 ♥ Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Encore. 

♥ Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Encore. 

Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Encore is a pretty, creamy muted orange. It's very easy to apply, and it goes on very smoothly and evenly on the nails. It dries quickly, and it's fully opaque in two coats.

I like Encore a lot more than Hopscotch, which was that bright orange shade hiding behind hatch number three in the Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar (link to the post HERE). Encore is a lot warmer than Hopscotch, which makes it a more wearable shade. I really like how Encore looks on me with my skin tone, most off the orange nail polishes that I've tried doesn't look good on me! Encore is a shade that I'm very pleased with, and it's also a great shade for the Fall and Winter months! :-)

What do you think about Encore? Would you wear it? :-) Love, Christine♥

CIATE MINI MANI MONTH ADVENT CALENDAR DAY.4: MISS MISTLETOE

Hey Everyone :-)

How are you guys doing today? I hope that you all are having a wonderful day. I'm back with a brand new Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar post! Today's shade is quite different and very unique from the other shades so far. Be sure to let me know what you think about it in the comments down below. Now, let's move on to the post! :-)

 ♥ Ciate Mini Sequin Miss Mistletoe. 

♥ Ciate Mini Sequin Miss Mistletoe.

 

 This is my very first time trying out a Sequin from Ciate, and so far I'm really enjoying it. Miss Mistletoe is very easy to apply. While your base coat is still wet, just pour the sequins over your nail (s). Wait until it's dry, then knock off any off the excess sequins that's left on your nails. If you want the sequins to last longer on your nails, make sure to finish off with your favorite top coat. The application can be a little messy, so I highly recommend that you keep your hands on a tissue paper until you are finished. To remove the sequins, just take your regular nail polish remover and pour it onto a cotton pad, wipe it off and your good to go!

I paired Miss Mistletoe with Zoya Trixie, which is a pretty silver metallic nail polish. I really like how this look turned out, I think it's a great look for the holidays. I also think that Miss Mistletoe would look gorgeous paired with Ciate Boudoir, which was the nail polish behind hatch number two in our Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar (link to the post HERE). It would make a beautiful manicure for Christmas! :-)

What do you think about Miss Mistletoe? Would you wear it? Have you tried out any off the shades in the Ciate Sequin range? :-) Love, Christine♥

CIATE MINI MANI MONTH ADVENT CALENDAR DAY.3: HOPSCOTCH

Hey Everyone :-)
How are you guys doing today? How is your Tuesday going so far? It's time to open up the third hatch in our Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar. Are you guys ready? I'm having so much fun sharing all the different shades with you, and I'm happy so to hear that you guys are enjoying the posts as well! That makes me really happy :-)

Let's jump right into today's Ciate nail polish, shall we?

 ♥ Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Hopscotch. 

♥ Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Hopscotch.

 Ciate Mini Nail Polish in Hopscotch is a bright orange nail polish with a creamy finish. It's a little sheer on the first coat, but it gets more opaque after a few extra coats off polish. I found it to be a little difficult to work with, because the consistency is quite thick. I had to work a little with it to get it to look somewhat descent on my nails. It dries quickly though and It's opaque in three coats.

Hopscotch is not my favorite nail polish shade so far in the Ciate Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar. I'm not the biggest fan off orange nail polishes (don't like how they look on me), but they can be quite fun to wear during the Spring and Summer months. Hopscotch is a fun shade that will brighten up any look, and get those fingers and toes looking fab in no time! :-)

 Hopscotch is currently on sale at BeautyBay for $10.60, HERE is the link if you are interested :-) 

What do you think about Hopscotch? Do you like to wear orange nail polishes? :-) Love, Christine♥
