Is the ciaté caviar manicure worth getting or no. Do the little beads stay on your nails for awhile or do they tend to fall off.

Sephora has the kits. I know they aren't meant for anymore than a few days, so I'm assuming they'd fall off the nail.

A lot fall off within HOURS... And doesn't last longer then a day MAYBE two... It is very cute, but I don't feel it's worth all the time and energy to do!

They sell it at sephora...

Buy something called microbeads instead it's cheaper but gives you the same look :) Check eBay or your local arts and craft stores :)

I did this with microbeads, it lasted about 4 days befor the beads started falling off. I'm pretty sure I could have gotten a full week if I had applied some top coat when I first noticed some of the beads coming off.

Caviar nails look great but the beads start falling right off =(. The effect doesn't last much. Tops two days for me. If you add top coat the color of the beads start bleeding right off as well.

I'm not a huge fan. Buuuut, when I went to in Sephora, the sales person told me, it's a waste of money and you can go to any craft store and get the beads for cheaper.

You can get the micro beads... But like Elizabeth said when you put a top coat the color bleeds off of the beads! It looks so dull and weird!

The color was way brighter than this, and then I put a top coat...

Buy microbeads and do the manicure. You can get a bottle of microbeads for $1. Why pay $25 for a product that you can get for $1 and then whatever you pay for polish.

I do not recommend buying the ciate brand it is very expensive. I bought some micro beads off of ebay for 5 dollars for like 6 different colors. I bought some brush on nail glue and used it like that. It stay minus like around 4 beads for 7 days. I love the look it is so chic! It will def. stay longer if you use nail glue! :)

I like them for certain days or special events - or just to be a little different. I went to Michaels and got a jar of clear microbeads for $3 and just used my white opaque polish and a clear top coat. I followed the directions of the beautylish DIY: Caviar Nails and viola I had caviar nails! There is no way I'd pay $25 for a kit when I could do it myself for $3 :)
