I stumbled upon these little guys the last time I was at a SiJCP.
However, I have not seen this set anywhere else. Not in free standing Sephoras, the Sephora website, and not even in other SiJCP's I've visited. Weird, huh? When I expanded my search beyond Sephora, I did manage to find full size bottles of most of the collection at Nordstrom.
Ciate Heirloom is an Orly Space Cadet dupe. I won't try to describe the color because I will fail. It's a stellar polish, but it's not at all unique. Next!
Ciate Love Letters is a stunning orange to pink duo with two sizes of pink sequins. This is like Sally Hansen Lava with glitter added. I'm pretty much obsessed with Lava, so naturally I'm even more obsessed with Love Letter. Don't worry, I already ordered a full size bottle.
Ciate Antique Brooch is a sheer gold base with two sizes of light pink sequins. 3 coats is opaque in some lighting but not at all opaque in direct light. I'd wear undies with this guy.
The consistency of all three of these was thick but manageable. This means they weren't goopy enough or annoying enough to thin, but they weren't perfect.
The Treasured Possessions collection is still a bit of an enigma to me. You can definitely get two of the three I've shown you today at Nordstrom ($15). There are others from the collection up, too. I can't find Heirloom, but Space Cadet is more cost effective anyway.
The Treasure Possessions mini set retails for $25 and is (supposed to be) a Sephora exclusive. I imagine they will get the full collection at some point.
I will definitely update this post with more info if any of this becomes more clear to me.
