Back To School Nails - Ciaté blackboard manicure - chalk nails


CIATÉ has repeatedly impressed us in recent months, with innovative manicure sets ranging from caviar pearls to foil finishes. The brand's latest offering? Chalkboard nails, complete with liquid chalk pens that you can doodle, draw and write with to your heart's content.

The set includes one matte black "blackboard" base coat, four pens and a Ciaté Mattnificent top coat. Once the black coat has dried, experiment with the chalk pens until you're happy with your design (if you're not, the pens simply wash off with water) and then apply the matte top coat to set the look once you're ready.

It's like being back at school - but this time doodling is positively encouraged.

£25, available at Selfridges from April 2013.
