Ciaté Paint Pots in Twilight

 If you've read my previous posts, you know I have a thing for dark nail polish. Actually I also have a thing for unusual nail colors.

Today I have an olive green from Ciaté A/W collection : Twilight
Ciaté is a very popular UK brand,  Formaldehyde, Toluene and Paraben Free that does not test on animals.
You can visit their website here, they offer worldwide delivery and there's an outlet section with reduced prices.


Twilight can be purchased alone but is also part of a trio that includes a China Glaze channelesque cousin : Fade to greige and a very dark blue : 3am girl . I might review these later.

Twilight is a very dark olive green packed with gold particles as well as some green and copper micro glitter; this combinaison results in a very eye-catching, stunning color.

If you like olive greens, I'm sure you already have China Glaze Wagon Trail and Nars Mash so I'm including a quick comparison.

Have you seen how ridiculously glossy China Glaze Wagon Trail is?

In the last picture, as you can see, layered over black Nars Mash is just a tad darker, it gives you an idea of its opacity.

So what do you think?

Are olive green shimmers way out of your comfort zone or do you dig them?
