Ciaté Paint Pot Dangerous Affair

Ciaté Paint Pot in Dangerous Affair is fast becoming one of my favourite red nail polishes. I received this as a freebie with an issue of Marie Claire (UK) some months ago. UK magazines often give the best full-sized beauty freebies, unlike Japanese magazines which usually only offer sample sachets or accessories like pouches, pocket mirrors and bags. However, the beauty freebies are usually restricted to copies sold within the UK.

As the name suggests, it's a vampy, sexy red. It applies very smoothly and two coats give a nice opaque finish. With Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat, I started seeing minor tip wear on the third day. Ciaté Paint Pots usually retail at £9 each.


The UK-based Ciaté website ships internationally.
