I received the Ciate Caviar Manicure nail kit in ‘Mother of Pearl’ from Sephora about a month ago but wasn’t exactly sure if I was talented enough to ‘do-it-yourself’. So I finally took the kit to a nail shop. Let me tell you, the application process is way too easy. [You paint two coats of the white polish before sprinkling the microbeads on to each nail one by one and pressing them perfectly into the surface.]
The result is beautifully iced out nails (my crazy term for them). The cons is that it will probably only last a few days (especially in white as it tends to get dirty fast) but I DO NOT recommend setting the beads in place with a nail gel. It totally changes the whole look and texture and it doesn’t look half as nice.
Ciate Jewel Multi-color Glitter and Oil Slick Iridescent Gold Green (Metallic) are nice as well.
