Ciaté Dolls House Collection | Review

Hello lovelies! <3

I saw this set from Ciaté ages ago and just thought it looked SO adorable and so of course being the girly girl that I am, I wanted it. 

Unfortunately, I wasn't sure if spending £18 on 5 mini nail polishes would be worth it, however, I managed to pick this little set from Tk Maxx about a week & half ago for £6.99 :O 

I was so delighted to finally get my paws on it!

Looky, how cuuuuuute! :)

I just love the packaging so much, with it's little door, windows and birdy on the rooftop, it's just too sweet.

You can also open it up to reveal the colours a bit more. As you can see, there are 5 mini stunning pastel shaded 5ml nailpolishes included within this set.

Paperdoll, (a chalky white colour) 

Baby doll (pastel pink) 

Poppet (lilac) 

Sweet Pea (pastel mint) 

& Doll Face (nudey-beige)

Ciaté describe these polishes to be of high coverage, high fashion and quick-drying with a porcelain effect finish, which I thought, wow, great! 

However, one thing I didn't like about these nail polishes is that they are a little difficult to work with, because they dry so quickly and you need a good 2-3 coats to get the opaqueness. Don't get me wrong, They're very cute colours, and the porcelain effect is pretty awesome, they're just a little frustrating to work with as I felt like I was just creating lots of streaks on my nails (never a good look!)

I think if you put more time and effort in, you could really work with these nail polishes, I just found they were a tad messy, just my opinion though!

I have heard other people having the same problem as me, but i'm sure lots of people love this set.

In my opinion, the packaging, name and pastel shades drew me into buying this, i'm glad I didn't pay the full price though!

If you do want to try this set out for yourself , have a look in your local Tk Maxx, or you can purchase it here from 'Look Fantastic'  :)
