The 24-piece Ciaté London tiny Mani Month set ($59; a $199 value)
There are so lots of pretty, pint-sized bottles of nail polish in the utterly charming Ciaté London Mani tiny Month set, and they’re all leading me to completely fail at my attempt to NOT hoard things.

There’s a long-running joke among my Filipino friends and I that Filipinos are hoarders, and, well…at least in my family, it’s absolutely true. Seriously, my folks never get rid of anything! On a trip home a few months ago, I found this one cheesy poster that hung in my room when I was a teenager. pertained to find that it had been living in my parents’ garage for a lot more than 20 years!

I tend to hold on to things a long time, too, but I’ve been working on it. I recently read Marie Kondon’s The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing, which has a lot of great tips, but it’s hard to resist the urge to hoard everything under the sun.
Especially when faced with something as hoard-worthy as this 24-piece set…
Knight in Shining Armour, Cutie Pie, miracle on 24th and Bloom Bloost
A List, Chalet Chic, Cookies & cream and birthday Blue
Originally, I planned break up the Ciaté London Mani tiny Month set, which is set up like an development calendar, with 24 little products hidden behind closed “doors,” and give them to the ladies in my life as Christmas stocking stuffers.

Other than the colors, I also like the large brush and the shiny finishes. and the formula, which dries fairly swiftly (only takes about five minutes), holds up reasonably well. I wore Ahoy Sailor, the creamy light blue shade, with a base coat for a couple days earlier this week, and it did OK. I saw a small chip on one of my nails at the end of the second day, which isn’t a great sign, but I spaced out and forgot to apply a top coat, so that may have contributed.
I haven’ used Ciaté London polishes before, but I anticipate mediocre wear time without the help of a base and top coat. The brand is based out of London, and their formula is complimentary of formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, dibutyl phthalate and camphor.

If you frequently find yourself battling the temptation to resist hoarding massive appeal product sets, be careful around this one. It’s available now at Sephora and online for $59, which is $2.46 per item. Not bad in any way considering that Ciaté London’s minis normally choose $8 each.
