Ciaté Cutie Pie - swatches and review

Today I'm showing you a real cutie pie! :D Yes, literally ;) Cutie Pie from Ciaté :)
I'm not a big fan of these pale baby pink pastells, but this one is fairly... cute! :P
I got this mini bottle from Ciaté's advent calandar.


GOOD TO KNOW:

Type of polish: Cream.

Colour: A very pale baby pink.

Opacity: Good! This is two coats. A third coat may have been good, but two coats is enough as well.

Drying time: Normal.

Formula: Good! Nice texture and easy to work with. Stays where you want it to. Apply first coat with light strokes to avoid bald spots. Second coat applies much better.

Brush: Very good! Thick, firm and very easy to apply with!

Shine: Very shiny on its own, but I have one coat of Seche Vite in these pictures.

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Accurate. What you see is what you get! ;)

Grade: 3+/5 :)

I liked this polish more than I thought actually :) Ok, it doesn't really suit my skintone, but it's a cute pink, the formula is good and I love the cute name of it! How many times have I written cute today..?? ;)
In some lighting it makes my nails look almost artificial, but I don't mind that.
I know they are real ;)

Do you like Cutie Pie?

  1. This is really pretty! I usually am drawn to brighter colors, but every now and then I need a good neutral pink shade.

    1. Me too like bright colours! But this one is good for French manis for example. And it's quite pretty too! :)

  2. Jag tyckte faktiskt om denna. Den är så blek att den nästan går åt vit. Som en ljus pastell. Har faktiskt ingen som denna som är creme. :)

  3. I do like soft pink shades, they give such a "clean" look. This one looks great on you. I like very much the fact that you included some pictures with natural light, too.
    Are you giving only 3/5 because is not your fave? or there were other issues with it? would love to know!

    1. Ciao Nati!:D
      Yes, I felt very fresh while wearing it actually! :D It's a great base for a French mani too! :D
      I try to always include a daylight picture if there is any daylight when I take pictures of a polish. They give a certain dimention to the overall look of the polish.
      The grade of 3 is because I'm not a pale pink fan at all and I didn't think it suited my skintone that well... No other issues I promise! Do you think I was a bit harsh on it...? ;)
      I've received your mail and I was so happy to read it! Will resond shortly!!
      Baci!!
