how to do ... matte nails!
Matte Nails are very popular right now, so I thought I would give them a go! You can see a mini review of the two polishes I used HERE. Below, I show you how I created my matte designs. They're very simple and you don't need many tools or polishes! I will be showing you use of 2 polishes: Mocha and Espresso. I hope you like them! :) p.s sorry for the bad lighting, the sun went in way too quickly :(

Step 4. Finish off your manicure with a tidy up around your nails!
Don't forget: DO NOT use a top coat on this as it will ruin the Matte Effect! :o

Step 3. Using a top coat (preferably a quick dry one), go over the tips of your nails. It only needs one stroke with quite a bit of polish on, but if you're worried about painting a wonky line you could use striping tape :)
One stroke is all it really needs but you can go over it to make it extra shiny like I did. |
