Ciate Advent Calendar

I'm aware that this is a Ciate advent calendar and I know that this post is months and months overdue. I just didn't have the time to make this post until now. The last I check, which is almost two weeks ago, this was still available at Sephora retailing for SG$79. I bought mine right at the start of February for SG$55 as there was a 30% discount at that time. Lucky, lucky me.
Like all advent calenders, there's 24 slots for the 1st of December to the 24th of December. This set contains 18 nail polishes ranging from pinks to grey, 4 caviar pearls, 1 sequin flakes, 1 glitter, and 1 funnel.
It's the perfect nail set for people who are either just starting out and want to try a variety of colours or just wanting to expand their nail polish collection. Each bottle is 5ml, which is less than half of the amount you would get in a standard bottle, but to be honest, I don't think any of us actually get through our usual 12-14ml of nail polishes. So with this mini Ciate ones, you don't feel like you're wasting it.
Even if there are a handful of colours you don't use, for the price, I still think it is very worth it. They apply very easily, not streaky at all. They have rich colour pay off, most of them require only one coat and you're good to go. Most importantly, they do not chip. There was once I had mine for 10 days straight and they were still in perfect condition.
And I love how they have included a quote behind each flap/door. I think it just adds a nice touch and somehow helps brighten a person's day. I'm so excited for Christmas this year. I can't wait to get another set of Ciate advent calendar. Haha.
