OBSESSED

I have wanted this for so long and absolutely love it! It transforms every colour in my collection and is absolutely great for nail art. It dries fast too which is always good!

Tips: Try matte nails with shiny tips in a black polish!

love!

I just love the matte nail look and I was using an orly product to achieve it however the orly option wasn't very versatile so was very happy to give this a go. It makes your nail polish collection and colours all of a sudden feel like they are multi use and gives a new lease of life to colours you may have forgotten about as you will just want to play around with everything you have!

Tips: Matte glitter looks really cool and a bit more reserved and grown up if you cant always pull off the OTT sparkle that some glitter polishes give!

Saw it, Tried it, Love it!

Typical OPI, great product, and oooh does it get the creative going! Have tried black french tips, both ways. polka dots, stripes... want to try more detailed designs, so much to do with such a versatile product. It does chip like any other nail polish and sadly my nail polish chips very fast, a good base coat helps though.

Tips: Apply it thick enough the first time to avoid a streaks. Have fun, be creative

Works perfectly!

I have tried other matte top coats but none have worked as well as this. It does exactly what it says it will and it dries quickly. Glad to have finally found one that works!

Tips: Apply it semi-thickly to avoid streaking. If applied thinly it won't mattify properly.

Am in love

I absolutely love this top coat. I have some polishes I stopped using because I didn't like them any longer but the matte top coat has given them a whole new life and changed the look for me. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this. Can't rave about it highly enough! You won't regret buying this one - it doubles the amount of polishes you have really because it changes the look of them so much! Couldn't live without it now.

Tips: Apply it thickly enough the first time and blow on your nails straight away to watch it change instantly.

A must have

Loved this so much, so many different techniques you can use; Just have a look on youtube. Makes your one tone nail polish stand out more.

Tips: A cool way that i use this nail polish, is to put it over the top of any colour + glitter combo. It gives it real depth.

Love!

I bought this on sale and thought why not give it a go. It really does work! It can give your polishes a whole new life if you are sick of using the same colour and is just nice to use instead of the same old polish. The only negative I have about it, which is probably more my fault than this top coat's, is that the polish underneath the matte top coat (if not applied perfectly) can come out streaky looking once the matte top coat is applied. Again, probably more my inability to paint nails perfectly or impatience to wait until my nails are fully dry before putting on the top coat.

Would definitely recommend it (as it does work) and is really kind of fun use!

Tips: Make sure your your nails are dry before applying and make sure to use a thick coat for even distribution (thin coats always leave little bits 'un-matted')!

Love it!

Loved the result.. I must admit that at first I was a little unsure as it looked chalky but over the days I really liked it! Also it seemed to dry quite fast which is always a bonus.

Tips: Make sure the nail polish underneath is a thick enough coat, if its a bit finer in some areas it doesn't look as good :)

Not a huge fan of the matt look

Personally I am a fan of the mega shiny nails but this matte finish is awesome for nail art.

Its a bit on the slow side to set compared to other OPI top coats so you need to have a bit of patience or you'll end up smudged or with fluff all over it. I love using this as a dot effect with shiny nails or just the odd one of two painted matte.

Its long lasting too, and as I only use it on rare occasions its affordable as if you keep it in a dark place it keeps for a while. I never had any problem from flaking or chipping from this top coat either.

OPI Matte Top Coat

I've been wanting a matte top coat for so long now, and although I am a big OPI fan, I was considering buying one from another brand because OPI didn't have a matte top coat in their range. So glad I waited though because not long after, OPI released this matte top coat into their range! I managed to get my hands on one of these when I went to a makeup sale, so was super stoked and excited to try it out!

The first time I used the matte top coat, I applied it over a navy colour (OPI "Yoga-ta get this Blue"). I think it looked good over the navy because the navy is a dark colour and so the matte is more obvious over it.

In terms of application, it was really easy to apply. It's like any other top coat that you would normally apply, but after you apply it onto your nail, it starts to turn matte.

I found that the top coat lasted me a few days, which wasn't very long compared to what I expected considering it was an OPI product and that it was a top coat. However, the matte top coat isn't hard to remove (unlike glitter polishes which can be such a pain to remove).

Overall, I was quite pleased with the product as it did add a matte effect to my nail colour like it said it would.

Tips: Don't apply a top coat over this as it will take away the matte effect (therefore defeating the purpose of applying the matte top coat). However, don't forget to still apply a base coat to protect your nails before you apply a coat of your desired nail polish colour, then follow with the matte top coat. I also think that the matte effect looks better and is more visible over deeper and darker colours like black, plum purple, navy, etc.
