Autumn Trend: Matte Nails

Matte nails are big news this autumn. OPI have brought out a new range of matte-finish colours, and a variety of companies have now added a mattifying topcoat to their line. Given that the new "in" colour of the season is plum, does this mean that the hottest trend is a matte, plum nail?

I've not personally seen any matte polishes in the flesh yet, but can't say I really like the idea of a matte nail. To me, nails should be glossy at all times. What do you think?

If you're interested, you can see OPI's new Matte collection at Lookfantastic; I can't really see a matte grape-green working on many skintones, can you?

  1. Oh matte nails -- No thanks.. I like shiny sparkly nails - almost wet look :) The ONLY thing that should be matte is your skin !! :)

  2. Hmm, not sure. I like the idea, but I can imagine it just looks like paint or Tippex when it's on. I'll just have to try some I guess.
