New Nails #5

I've fallen in love with the idea of Ciate Caviar Manicure.

I first found out about it from Frankie from The Saturdays Twitter and then spotted a review of it over on etcllymlrs - at the time, it must have been brand new out, because when I checked the Ciate & Selfridges websites, they were all sold out - so I added them to my birthday list..... then became very impatient - I don't know what I was thinking really, my birthday isn't until November, I was never going to last until then!

So I began searching for alternatives in the only suitable place - eBay!! And came across this craft supplies seller - after spending and age deciding which colours to get [there's so many to choose from!] I bought the Jubilee Mix Beads and the Denim Blue Beads

l-r: Jubilee Mix; Denim Blue

They arrived really quickly, and were a really excellent price for the amount of beads you get - plus, they also do combined postage. I will be definitely be buying from them again.

Now for the test....

I've gone for the Jubilee Mix Beads first, and incorporated it into an Olympic themed manicure (I LOVE the Olympics)

l-r: Models Own Prussian Blue; Snow White; Red Alert

I definitely can't see it lasting more than a day, but it's cute for a night out, or special occasion.

After checking the website I can see that all colours are now back in stock on the Ciate website, so they're definitely staying on my birthday list, and I look forward to trying them out, and seeing how it's done properly!

I'm off work now for the next 2 weeks to watch the Olympics - like I said, I LOVE the Olympics - and I actually can't wait!!

GO TEAM GB!!
