Sally Hansen, Mentos freshen up spring manicures

An interesting collaboration has been brewing with none other than Sally Hansen and the Mentos candy brand.

The two companies have joined forces to launch a collection of limited-edition quick-dry nail polishes that will bring some added freshness to manicures.

Consisting of eight shades with color-matched tops, the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri x Mentos collection features pastels, glitter, crème and bright hues.

“Sally Hansen Insta-Dri x Mentos pairs two iconic brands in an irresistibly sweet collaboration,” Celia Tombalakian, the vice president of global marketing for Sally Hansen said. “Together, we’ve brought the fun, freshness, and fruitiness to the nail polish category — just in time for Spring.” 

Shades consumers can choose from include:

• The Freshmaker, a bright white shade that features flecks of blue glitter;
• Confection Perfection, a pink crème shade;
• You’re The Zest, a light lemon crème color;
• Orange You A Peach, a pastel crème shade;
• Fuchsia Fizz, a pearl pink that channels Mentos’ metallic wrapper;
• Cutie Fruttie, a mix of glittery colors;
• Peppermint Dandy, a blue crème shade; and
• Mint To Be, an apple green crème color.

"We are truly wowed by the way Coty has captured the spirit of the Mentos brand in this original and playful Sally Hansen x Mentos collection with its stunning spring colors", Christine Cool, the area licensing manager of Perfetti Van Melle said.

The Sally Hansen Insta-Dri x Mentos collection retails for $4.99 each and can be found at drug stores nationwide.
