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.

my full-sized Ciaté paint pots
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?
sorry for keeping things I bought apart from my HAULy friday posts, but lately I buy so many new polishes that posting the news once once a week is just not enough^^ Companies are throwing LE’s on the market like there is no tomorrow. It makes me crazy haha Not only the DM drugstore brands like Essence, Catrice and p2 – also Rossmann brand Rival de Loop and Rival de Loop young are releasing LE’s all the time. Sometimes I feel it is a little bit too much, but oh well we keep buying stuff anyway. haha
Today I want to show you a nail polish collection from Rival de Loop which I bought about 2 weeks ago I think. I actually found this by accident. But when I saw it I had to buy all of the effect polishes! With these they also released 5 base colors, but since I have polishes that are very similar, I didn’t feel the need to buy these here.
For all of you are interested, these polishes are vegan.
The LE contains 10 polishes total. 5 base colors and 5 top coats. They are all pairs, contain 10 ml of product and cost 2,49 euro each.
I paired them with the Rival de Loop polishes as followed.
Ciaté PP118 – candy floss paired with Rival de Loop „Sorbet Nail Collection“ 01 soft yellow
Ciaté PP082 – cream soda paired with Rival de Loop „Sorbet Nail Collection“ 09 birdy silver
Ciaté PP080 – sugar plum paired with Rival de Loop „Sorbet Nail Collection“ 07 cool mint
Ciaté PP104 – pepperminty paired with Rival de Loop „Sorbet Nail Collection“ 03 smooth apricot
Ciaté PP151- Loop de Loop paired with Rival de Loop „Sorbet Nail Collection“ 05 blue sky
The blue effect polish on the yellow thumb sadly does not show up so well in the pictures, but it was a really nice combination.
I am kind torn which of these effect polishes is my favorite. I really love the one on my pinky finger, the blue one on my thumb and the fuzzy one on my ring finger, because the color combination of the fuzzy particles is so unique.
Here is my sunday mani for this week.
The past two weekend were pretty nice, the weather was great and I felt the spring is about to come.
So I was looking for a nice mani that would bring happiness when looking at it.
I remember Whitney’s (Dressed up Nails) pastel easter manicure from April last year. So I tried a similar one myself.
Make sure to let the base color dry properly and then use a dotting tool to create the dots.
I used the small side of my dotting tool. Again, let everything dry properly and seal it with a shiny clear top coat.
I think it is a really fun manicure. Thank you Whitney for the inspiration!
