Haul!

Oh I've been sooooooooo bad recently! And yet, what with house-hunting, job hunting and wedding planning I've not been able to post:( In fact, I've barely found the time to paint my nails. Foolishly, I decided that I would make as many as the wedding decorations as possible and so have been spending my evenings sewing bunting, making place settings, pinteresting like a crazy lady..................my nails have barely had a look in. 

But somehow I've found time to buy polish.....


Starting at the top, going clockwise; Barry M Silk Mist, Barry M Silk Heather, Maybelline White Splatter, Sinful Colours Sugar Sugar, Barry M Aquatic Collection Pacific, Barry M Aquatic Collection Mediterranean, Rimmel Sherbert Sweetheart, Ciate Roller Coaster, Ciate Big Yellow Taxi, Ciate Megaphone. 

Swoooooooooon - these little babies are courtesy of one of my lovely work friends - we've been swapping:) 

Oh Barry M - you're so good to me:)

Ciate Pocket Money swatch

Good God, have you ever tried a polish and been unable to find ANYTHING nice about it? If not, you've clearly never tried Caite Pocket Money, or as like to call it, Ciate Vomit. I tried this as part of my clearing the untrieds and just hated it. 


Where to start with this review? The vomit like colour? The terrible application that meant it dried in a sticky, bumpy mess? The brush which was poorly shaped and moulted hairs over my nails? Eurgh, disgusting. The only good thing about this is  that it was free with a magazine. But I have to be honest, if this is what other Ciate polishes are like, count me out! Why would you send out a free copy of something so bad? 

The only way I could wear this was as a base for a nice colour, Nail Pop Bling. But even then I knew it was underneath, lurking.......shudder. 




So, I think Ciate Pocket Money is heading to the bin.................:(
