Love it!

I definitely need this

I have a couple of Ciate polishes I bought from a friend. I think the phrase I'd use is 'wouldn't go mad over them'. Holiday blues, although its a lovely colour chips easily and takes a good couple of coats for a decent coverage. They are ok, but I wouldn't specifically seek out the brand like I would Kleancolor, OPI etc

I bought this and it arrived a few days ago, but it's killing me knowing I have 24 (well, 21, not counting the Caviar beads) polishes but can't even open one of them for three weeks.

I'd ditto this. I don't particularly like them, but when they're free in mags I pick them up because they're not awful, just probably not worth the price I guess

Has anyone received theirs yet? Just had to contact qvc as my track and trace indicate its been with a courier since the 7th with no attempted delivery to me! That is really poor as I paid £4.95

My daughter would just die and go to heaven. Her own little nail varnishes?! And a new one every day?

I also don't think that £1.75 (inc p&p) for a little nail varnish is that bad... it's just cos you have to buy loads on one go.

Crikey, I'm so tempted *think*



And now I decided to buy it, and it's gone. Rage!

Couldn't you make your own? My husband made one for me using one of those advent holder things from tk maxx with the little pockets in, then get a load of polishes from tkmaxx or order w7's from nail polish direct

That's so sweet! Piccies please!!

I resisted buying the Ciaté advent calendar in the end and it's out of stock now anyway. Probably just as well!

Fuck, no chance of me ever getting it then

Well yea, but I didn't think it was too bad a price for what you got and plus, it looked cute

I've just realised we can open them in six days. I wonder if there's a different polish for each person a day or every day has the same polish.

Aw, that's such a cute idea.

If anyone still wants one, and is in London, I picked one up from Selfridges on Friday

They had loads left! And they were offering 10% off beauty over the weekend, so I didn't feel too guilty

That is good- website has been oos for ages. I ordered from qvc because I didn't want to get to bullring and not be able to grab one. Haven't been to London in years so wouldn't have made the trip before December.
I still think its a good price for 20 polishes and 4 bottles of beads.

Might be worth emailing/telephoning them and asking if they will ship to you. I know some companies are happy to do this. Their standard delivery is £4.95 on the website.

I just haven't got £48 to spare really perhaps it's fate

Oh, sorry I didn’t post before, it was a very manic weekend

Good idea to call them and ask about delivery though. It is a lot of money! Buy chocolate instead

Quoting myself but I think they are different as I saw someone's first one on a blog and it's different to my first one (I peeked).

Anothe blog I follow posted a review of all the polishes in there weeks ago! Definitely not allowed lol.

I think we should do comparison days.
I am so excited for Saturday
