Mani Spotlight – L’Oreal Mint Glacée

I just looked up this nail polish online to make sure it was still available before I talked about it. Turns out…it’s been discontinued (sad face). However, I picked mine up just a couple of weeks ago during a local cosmetics warehouse sale – proving that it’s not completely unavailable, but more like a hidden gem in a treasure hunt. Start scouting people!

Mint Glacée by L’Oreal is such a pretty colour and I couldn’t resist sharing it with you. It’s the most perfect, pistachio green that can lean white in certain lighting. It applies a little sheer at first (expected for such a pale shade) and requires three coats to achieve full opacity. But it dries to an absolutely beautiful creamy finish with nice shine. It also lasted three days without chipping and survived a long weekend cottage trip full of hands-on activities. 

Pastels and summer go together like bubbles in a bath. Add sun kissed skin and it’s magic! I suggest if you are lucky enough to spot this polish yourself, snatch it as quickly as possible!
