Of all the many nail trends, matte is definitely one every beauty junkie just has to try.
No one is saying to abandon the gorgeous gloss of a fresh, clear top coat, but sometimes you gotta change it up a little. And with fall right around the corner, now is a great time to refresh your manicure methods for a dose of the fab and trendy. Now matte nails are definitely still in as autumn quickly approaches.
