Ciate Day 15 Gelology Top Coat

Another doubler from 2018, 2017 and 2016. It's a top coat and I RARELY use top coats! I used on top of the last post as it was catching on my stuff.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (1 minute a coat). It is very glossy and shiny!!! And helped with the shards, they stopped catching with this topper.

Ciate Day 14 Gilded Goddess

Used this on top of Avon Emerald Elegance and Avon Make My Day. Also solo!

This is okay to use, okay to apply and slow drying (6-7 minutes a coat). It needs to be dabbed on more than painted, so make sure you have plenty glitters on the brush. Dip in and out a few times for this. It is a nice gold glitter and looks good on the red and green! Very festive. Did notice it caught on my hair and clothes though! Lasted well.

Oh no another doubler from 2018!!! And I am sporting slightly shorter nails, as one snapped and I had to cut them down!

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is a nice grey blue colour. It applied well, compared to last years! Noticed tip wear.

Ciate Day 11 Pepperminty

So we have another doubler!!! 2018 and 2013.

This is easy to use, okay to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is quite streaky on the first coat but builds up nicely on the second. This is the same as 2018 but different from 2013. I prefer the 2013 version, but this is okay. Lasted well.

Ciate Day 8 Royal Reign

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is a lovely deep dark blue. 1 thick coat would have done but I used 2. Noticed slight tip wear. And it DID NOT stain, which is always good.

Ciate Day 4 Tempest

A doubler from the 2018 calendar!

I decided to put this on top of a dark colour: Barry M Black Grape and a white: OPI Alpine Snow.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is a nice iridescent polish. I think it looks good over the dark colour but no so much the white! Also looks great solo too! Lasted really well.
