Happy #ManiMonday - Pepperminty from Ciaté

Happy Mani Monday! For this week’s nail color, we have “Pepperminty” from Ciaté. I saw Kelly from The Vegan Taff wearing this a few weeks ago and was reminded how beautiful it is! I always love minty shades and this one is just a nice, pigmented blue-leaning pistachio crème. It kind of reminds me of mint chocolate chip ice cream, though I couldn't say why. J It’s probably one of, if not my favorite mints.

The formula is great! It’s a smidge streaky in one coat, but perfect with two. I also really love the brush and the handle on Ciaté polishes. The “handle” is quite long and skinny which seems to give me a lot more control. I’m a messy nail painter, but with the Ciaté polishes I don’t have much trouble painting only my actual nail! J Gorgeous, gorgeous shade. Definitely check out “Pepperminty” if you are looking for a great mint polish!

You can purchase Ciaté polishes for $15 at Nordstrom, as well as mini bottles of select shades (including "Pepperminty") for $8 at Sephora. “Pepperminty” is currently available in a set (which is how I purchased mine) that retails for $25 and also includes full size bottles of “Cupcake Queen” (another fav) and “Cookies and Cream.”
