Ciate Sweet Pea

Another episode from the Ciate Nightmare ;-)



This is really hard to use and really hard to apply. Like the others before it, this one is really streaky too. On the up side, it is really quick drying (less than 30 seconds a coat). It's a mini bottle and hard to keep brush stroke to a minimum, which I highly recommend for this polish. And make sure you have plenty on the brush too. It did last well.

Rating
Easy to use = 3/10
Application = 3/10
Drying time = 9/10
Lasted well = 8/10
Coats = 3
Finish = porcelain
Removal = put a glitter on top, but I would guess okay
Overall = 4/10 poor formula
Purchased from = TK Maxx

My Personal Rating = 6.5/10 :-) bad formula but a nice polish

    Sorry, but it looks as if you had Tippex on your nails.

    Kind regards,
