Ciate Mini Mani Month

Now I'm the last person who needs more nail polish, but when you come across a bargain this good it's too hard to resist! Before Christmas there was an increase in beauty advent calendars which although looked wonderful, I wasn't convinced I'd use all of the products. However as a nail polish addict, the one that stood out to me the most was the Ciate Mini Mani Month, basically a new nail polish for 24 days.. how good does that sound? At around £42 I decided to resist the temptation and forgot all about it until now. Why now do you ask? Well it's now appeared for the amazing price of £16.99 via Fragrance Direct and I had to snap it up while I had the chance. Here's what's inside.

My set arrived in a huge box which made me wonder if I'd done some online shopping in my sleep. Thankfully not but everything arrived all and well. In the set you get 24 boxes to open, the same you would with any advent calendar with 17 nail polish shades and 7 varieties of glitter/caviar/sequin finishes. I'd say the shade range is quite heavy on the pastel/lighter shades so if you're more of a dark nail polish person this might not be for you.

In true advent calendar form I'll be opening them individually for each day of this month because it's all part of the surprise I guess! As for the size of the polishes, I find although they're mini, they're actually quite a decent size compared to how tiny OPI minis seem. All in all I think it's such a lovely idea which would be a great gift for any nail polish lover, whether you give it to yourself or a friend. You could save it for a friends birthday as a gift that keeps on giving or even split the set up and share it.

Time is of the essence with this one, at the moment it's still in stock on Fragrance Direct so make sure you snap up the amazing bargain before it's gone!
