Is Matte Becoming the New Black? Let’s Ask OPI (Matte Top Coat)

I’ve noticed a lot of interesting nail trends this season and one of them is the “Matte” manicure and/or using matte nail polish in nail art. If you’re not sure how you feel about the matte trend or don’t want to invest in a full sized bottle of a matte polish, OPI is coming out with a Matte Top Coat in April. You can use the top coat over any of your existing polishes or alongside nail design tools to get the coveted matte effect. 

The OPI Matte Top Coat instantly transforms glossy nail lacquer to a matte finish when applied over any polish. It provides sealing protection, without shine and protects nails from chipping, making manicures last longer.  With a matte, transparent finish, this top coat is designed to leave nails velvety smooth while creating a touchable texture and an edgy appearance.

Here is what Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Co-Founder VP & Artistic Director says – “A matte finish can be worn over any OPI nail lacquer shade and should be applied after the base coat and primary coats of color to give nails a unique look. Using Matte Top Coat to transform any shade in your collection makes it a more versatile and budget-friendly way to embrace the matte trend. Give your favorite lacquers an update with a new finish without altering the color.”
