CIATE MINI MANI MONTH EDITION
December was a good month for nails for me. I couldn't afford the Ciate Mini Manor, but TK Maxx had the
Ciate Mini Mani Month for the bargain price of £19.99. This meant I could have the nail varnish advent calender of my dreams, and paint my nails lots of lovely colours, right up until Christmas. Plus each window hid a lovely little message, either fun or inspirational.

| Some of the cute daily quotes. |
The 5ml nail varishes really brightened up my days, giving me that
little extra boost as I coped with the holiday anxiety - painting my
nails as a treat to myself for getting through the day. I'm yet to try
the world famous Ciate Caviar Manicure (I didn't trust myself to get
them everywhere), but I did try the glitter and sequins, and loved them.
I have some shades left to try, but the ones I have tried thus far I
have loved - they go on very smooth and dry with a durable finish.

| Loveliness of 'Snowflake' and 'Boudoir' |
 |
| 'Amazing Gracie with 'Boudoir' and the candy pink of 'Hoopla'. |
 |
| 'Main Stage' and 'Candy Floss' look great together, whilst 'Pillow Fight' is a star on it's own. |
|

 |
| A little bit of sparkle added to 'Chinchilla' and 'Tweed & Tails' |
 |
| The dark and sultry 'Starlet' and the shining star of 'Fit for a Queen'. |
I would love to see some more manicures for nail inspiration, so please leave me links to your posts.

I really love all of these, especially the pink and the sequinned one! I've never tried Ciate until your Christmas present to me and they are really wonderful - thank you so much for them! xx

I love all of these colours, especially the pale blue. I wish I was actually able to paint my nails well myself though. I get impatient waiting for them to dry and just smudge it all over the place!

I've never tried Ciate before, I love the packaging of it though! This calendar is such a cute idea, I think Chinchilla may be my fave shade here. I LOVE the polishes you sent me, definitely going to be doing a post on them for sure!! xx

Oooooh pretty nail polish! I love nail polish. :D But I bet you knew that! I don't know why I never post about it though. Maybe I'll do that someday. I really like how there is a quote in every door of the calendar. :)
