I ended up breaking down and I decided to invest in the $25 ciate "caviar nail art" kit from Sephora.com. I know there are cheaper alternatives, but I wanted to be able to try this amazing kit, I also picked up two cheaper alternatives (which you will be able to read about at the bottom of this blog).
The kit is packaged really well, and the container is so GORGEOUS and eye catching! Who can resist this beautiful kit? I know I couldn't!
I purchased the rainbow kit, they only have three its to choose from. The rainbow kit comes with rainbow caviar beads, and a gorgeous baby pink base color; in the color "strawberry milkshake"

I thought I would end up using all of my beads after a couple manicures, but after I used this bottle for my accent nails-I still had over 95% of the bottle left. This kit is definitely worth the money, and it will last you for months!

the Application of the ciate nail polish was amazing, it was very opaque-it only took two coats. This nail polish does dry rather fast.
I decided I only wanted to decorate one of my nails with the caviar beads, being that they are expensive, and since it was my first time trying it out I wasn't sure if it was going to last as long as I would like them to if I was to put them on all of my nails. It is now day three and they are still lasting!!! Only a few of the beads have fallen off, nothing that you are able to notice! I give this kit a A+. I would definitely recommend it!
I also wanted to try the cheaper alternative as well, so I can compare them for you guys so you guys will know if this ciate kit from Sephora is definitely worth the money, and the hype. I did purchase the cheaper set which is just a set of 12 different color micro-beads from Michael's which only cost me $14. I did use my 20% off coupon. I also purchased an even cheaper one off ebay from a international seller for only $3. The only one ive used so far was this ciate kit. I will be doing another blog post that will be comparing the three with my honest opinions. Please stay tunned for the update!
