Anyone who is convinced that a good nail polish should have super-shine and long-lasting gloss should pay attention to the new trend - matte varnishes. They look very noble and at the same time unusual. Depending on the brand, matte varnishes can have a suede, velvet or plastic effect. Such bottles are produced by brands of different price levels, so it will not be difficult to find a suitable copy. Location: Location: The first matte varnishes appeared several years ago. Only professional brands were engaged in their release. Later, such textures were mastered by mass brands, and, finally, the corresponding varnishes appeared in luxury lines. Today it is very easy to choose the desired shade and texture. On sale there are pastel, dark and bright colors with the effect of soft shine, frost, vinyl, plastic. There were also semi-gloss varnishes,texture reminiscent of brocade or taffeta.

For those who can't find the color they want, there are matte tops that instantly give your favorite polish a trendy velvet effect. This top is applied over two layers of regular enamel - it helps the varnish dry quickly. To keep the manicure decorative, the top needs to be updated daily.

Suede, velvet and plastic textures are quite demanding on the quality of the manicure. Such varnishes emphasize the irregularities of the nail plate - waviness, grooves, roughness. To achieve perfect coverage, you will have to take the time to prepare your nails. Align their shape. Matt and semi-matt varnishes look especially impressive on short square and rectangular plates.

Polish the surface thoroughly with a special file or sanding stone. Then apply a leveling base to the nails - for especially problem nails, it is better to lay it in two layers, drying each one thoroughly. Shake the varnish before applying, matte textures are prone to flaking. Twisting the inverted bottle between your palms will quickly return the varnish to its original appearance.

Take a sufficient amount of the product on the brush - a semi-dry brush will leave ugly grooves and bald spots on the nail. One of the advantages of matte varnishes is their instant drying. Be sure to apply a second and, if necessary, a third layer of the product. When finished, dip the brush into the varnish, wipe it on the neck of the bottle and run along the edge of the nail, as if sealing the color. This will extend the lifespan of the manicure.

Fashionable varnishes also have a drawback - a beautiful suede effect lasts no more than a day. After that, the nails acquire a light gloss. If you want to bring back a beautiful velvet texture to your manicure, renew it with another coat. The matte top will also correct the situation - although it can change the original texture of the varnish - for example, turning the vinyl covering into velvet.
