It’s a cute new consumer product you may just want to experiment with yourself. The Chalkboard Manicure from Ciaté London (www.ciate.co.uk) lets you sketch, doodle, and squiggle to your heart’s content using mini liquid chalk pens.

Begin with two coats of matte black Ciaté Chalkboard Paint Pot, and allow to dry. Design, draw, and play with the liquid chalk pens. For anything that doesn’t make the grade, simply wash away with water, and start again. When you’re satisfied with your handiwork, seal the look with the matte top coat.
