Product review : Sephora's Ciate

Hey guys as you can tell from my title today blogpost will be about product review and the product i'm reviewing is Sephora's Ciate .

I have actually bought 2 colors of Ciate , i bought PP085-Sand dune & PP029-Gold digga .

left PP029 gold digga , right PP085 sand dune
 To be honest , i actually bought them beause of the bottles and the presentation , it is very pretty and unique don't you think ? But the price however i think it's a little too pricey , it cost about $20 Singapore dollars so about IDR 180.000++ per bottle , for a nail polish the price is kinda ridiculous . But i do however have to admit they do have some very pretty and unique colors you can't find anywhere else

Some sample of me trying on the nail polish , i'm trying the PP029 cos i personally liked the color


 AN INTODUCTION OF CIATE (taken from Sephora's website)
Founded by UK-based nail artist Charlotte Knight, Ciaté® introduces innovative nail trends that push the boundaries of beauty. From intensely pigmented colors to designer-inspired manicures, Ciaté’s original polishes, textures, kits, and treatments will transform your nails into the ultimate statement accessory.

Ciate nail polishes comes in many different varieties you can choose from , they have the regular polish , velvet , caviar and they also have nail polish sets you can purchase and choose from . The nail polish have a very smooth texture , you only need to apply 2 layer of the nail polish to get a maximal result , the polish brush however , it is kind of disappointing , it's not as smooth when i apply it as i thoght it would be so that for me it's kinda disappointing .

IS IT WORTH THE BUY ?
Yeah...... sure if you have the extra money you can spent , for me though it's a no , i think that it's too pricey for a nail polish and i still prefer OPI/Revlon nail polishes it's less pricey ,good quality and trusted brands but i would buy Ciate though if i have extra money i can spend , they do really have very nice polishes and i freaking love the bottles it's so darn cute . You can purchase Ciate nail polishes at Singapore's Sephora (they don't sell Ciate nail polish in indonesia as far as i know) or you can visit their website www.sephora.com to explore the brand and you can also purchase other things like make up, skincare , fragrance etc .

Thank you for your time and interest in my blog , see you on my next blogpost , tadaa

Credits to Fimela team (www.fimela.com) , Nail Artist : Krisna Siantar (www.nailturally.blogspot.com)


STEP 1 :  
Sebelum mulai memulas kuku, aplikasikan base coat ke seluruh kuku. Diamkan selama kira-kira satu menit.


 STEP 2 :
Pulaskan cat kuku warna putih ke semua kuku, namun biarkan kuku bagian jari manis.


 STEP 3 :
Untuk kuku di jari manis, pulaskan cat kuku warna hitam. Selanjutnya, tempelkan nail accessory berbentuk bunga pada bagian ujung kuku. Kamu bisa menggunakan lem khusus kuku untuk proses menempelkannya.


 STEP 4 :
Gunakan nail art stripper brush pada cat kuku warna hitam dan mulai buat pola garis seperti pada gambar. Kemudian pulaskan cat kuku warna hitam untuk mengisi pola yang sudah dibuat.


STEP 5 :
 Ambil dotting tool dan aplikasikan pada cat kuku warna putih. Buat pola kelopak bunga dengan mengaplikasikan empat bulatan pada kuku.


STEP 6 :
 Bersihkan dotting tool yang sudah digunakan dengan nail polish remover dan gunakan kembali pada cat kuku warna merah. Aplikasikan dotting tool ini pada bagian tengah pola kelopak bunga yang sudah dibuat sebelumnya.


STEP 7 :
Buat teknik french manicure pada bagian ujung kuku. Gunakan cat kuku warna merah pada langkah ini. Selanjutnya, gunakan nail art stripper brush untuk pola garis dengan cat kuku warna silver untuk efek pembingkai.


STEP 8 :
 Terakhir, aplikasikan top coat pada semua kuku yang sudah dibuat. Top coat ini penting untuk melindungi cat kuku sehingga tak mudah rusak.
