Matte and Glossy Nails: Choosing the Finish

Matte and glossy describe the surface appearance. They do not identify the colour or establish which product creates the final finish.

Check the system

Read whether the finish belongs to a colour product or a compatible top coat. Follow the selected product instructions for application.

Use finish as contrast

A glossy detail against a matte area can define a shape without a colour change. Compare photographs under the same light to judge the effect.
