This is an awesome top coat that takes shiny nails to a matte finish. I find it extends the life of the nail polish by an extra day before chipping starts.
Pricey but nice. This top coat makes for gorgeous matte nails without having to purchase new polishes - just brush it over the top of your favourites.
I have been reading and researching about the Chanel Matte top coat that everyone had been using, and to be honest it looked super cool! Since I absolutely love wearing dark coloured nail polish I thought it would be cool to try the matte top coat that Essie made because I am NOT going to spend a ton on Chanel polish (but I will buy the mascara). I paid roughly $12.00 for the Essie matte top coat, and although I may not wear it all the time it is still worth it! The matte finish gave me the extra bit of edge, which I love! The matte finish reminded me of my lovely X-Box controller because they both have the same matte finish! Love love love it.
This is the best! It turns any nail polish you own into a matte color when you apply it as a top coat. I particularly like applying it over glittery nail polish because it looks really interesting. It is definitely worth it, I can't find anything about it to fault.
I didn't think this finisher would work as effectively as it does. It dries instantly, is absolutely smooth and truly does it's job. Apply it as top coat to any normally "glossy" polish and it turns it matte right away. Instead of purchasing individual matte shades, this is an easy route because it enables you to turn ANY polish matte.
I think this is a great product to have for all nail polish lovers. I jumped on the matte nail polish bandwagon and loved the way matte nail polishes looked, i also loved the suede polishes are are basically shimmery/glittery nail polish with a matte finish. I bought a few and wished some of the polishes i already own can be matte too! Well this is the solution. This top coat turns any nail polishes matte. You need really little product and it dries really quick. It makes any nail polish matte! I also find that using regular nail polish with matte coat last a lot longer than matte nail polishes. It's also fun experimenting with this. You can do regular polish with matte tips/reverse etc. I know OPI has a matte coat but it's double the price. This performs well and is well worth it. If you love the matte nails look, this is great.
