Good mid morning!
I got the BEST package in the mail this week! I had been lemming for it forever! Its finally here!
Here it is, the best, constantly raved about:
ESSIE MATTE ABOUT YOU!
Ive always been a fan of matte, but I have no matte and a few plastic finishs. I have a huge polish collection and to get a topcoat that could double my collection in finishes!
So naturally I had to try it on right away!
I decided to use a new polish, Sally Hansen's extreme wear Emerald City.
Its a gorgeous emerald with tons and tons of shimmer enclosed in its .40 fl oz bottle. The cap is great and the brush is long and flat. This is how it looks without the matte top coat.
This is two coats.
Then I tried my essie matte about you.
The topcoat is AMAZING! It goes on and drys the polish so fast and then you have a beautiful soft silky matte topcoat. I am SO impressed. This works like a dream.
Pros:
Beautiful Matte Finish
Fast Drying Time
Doubles all your varnish, adding a new depth.
Cons:
Price- $10 (I ended up getting this on ebay for 5.50!)
I heard it chips faster than normal but since i am SO hard on my nails this isnt a dealbreaker.
For me the pros DEFINITELY outway the cons!
if you havent checked out my giveaway yet, please do!
Love it! Looks great on you!
ReplyDeleteMatte top coats are so much fun! I haven't tried the Essie one, I have the one from Butter and I love it. Such a nice quick way to change your polish.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking of getting a matte top coat, but I really really love shiny things...So I'd end up mattening a glitter mani :p
ReplyDeleteLove the combo you did :)

I have the matte topcoat from Diamond Cosmetics, I love it! I really like mattes! <3
ReplyDeleteI love this!
ReplyDeleteI've used it on and on since I bought it this spring :) Essie was a really good choice, something I can't say about Essence :/
I love this top coat, it is what I use whenever I want a matte finish!
