Hellmann's Chipotle Mayo Inspires Summer's Spiciest Nail Trend

These days, food is for sharing on social media (nearly) as much as it is for eating and Hellmann's knows a picturesque meal must go beyond the aesthetic and deliver quality food and taste. So, the brand is dropping its most aesthetic dressing yet: NEW Chipotle Mayonnaise Dressing. Made with real chipotle peppers, the vibrant flavour of Hellmann's Chipotle Mayo, and our overall love for food photo moments, was the perfect inspiration for summer's newest nail trend: the Mayo Mani.

The glazed donut and blueberry milk nails had their moment, but this summer is calling for a spiced up mani. Hellmann's teamed up with Sigourney Nuñez, a licensed nail artist and content creator, who envisioned the hottest manicure of the summer: a mayo white nail with a fiery orange rim and an accent nail adorned with Hellmann's coquette-style blue bow. A photo-worthy manicure that looks almost as delicious as your meal topped with Hellmann's Chipotle Mayo? A-mayo-zing.

To bring the Mayo Mani to life, Hellmann's is hosting a free pop-up event open to the public, ages 21+ with valid ID, to indulge in delicious dishes featuring the new Hellmann's Chipotle Mayo and treat themselves to a Mayo Mani. The event will take place from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. ET on Friday, May 17 at La Contenta Oeste in New York City (78 W 11th St), while supplies last. The experience also includes:

• Complimentary Food + Beverage: Attendees can savour a limited menu of exclusive dishes topped with Hellmann's Chipotle Mayo curated by La Contenta's own chef Luis Arce Mota, such as Taco de Pescado, Esquites, Elote Asado and Ensalada de Camarón. Entry includes one drink ticket which can be used towards a specialty cocktail, mocktail, select beer or Mexican soft drink.
• Mayo Manicures: Select guests can receive complimentary Mayo Manis from Sigourney and a team of nail artists. Beginning May 14, guests can book their first come, first served reservation in advance HERE. Space is limited.
• Photo Opps: Guests can also capture their fresh mani designs at the restaurant with a photobooth or "mani cam" moment.

"With more and more food photos being shared on social media showing off complementary clothing colour palettes or nail designs, we wanted to give people the perfect aesthetic pair with our new Hellmann's Chipotle Mayonnaise and first-of-its-kind nail art design," said Chris Symmes, senior marketing director, dressings at Unilever North America. "Hellmann's Chipotle Mayo turns up the heat with a spicy flavour that tastes as good as it looks and thanks to Sigourney Nuñez's new nail art design, fans will be able to show off the art & science of flavorful expression."

"I'm thrilled to partner with Hellmann's, tapping into the food-inspired nail trend with the Mayo Mani," said Sigourney Nuñez. "The vibrant colour and flavour of Hellmann's Chipotle Mayo reminded me a lot of one of my mom's best dishes, a Mexican tinga chicken tostada. Since that dish is very versatile, I wanted the nails to be versatile too. The Mayo Mani features a creamy white mayo base with a bright orange rim that will look good on different lengths, shapes and sizes."
