    I've bought some matte polishes & been highly unimpressed with how quickly they chip. Also, I found some of them to look too flat, there didn't appear to be any dimension at all. Enter Matte About...

    I've been meaning to try the matte nails but didn't want to buy an entire bottle of the matte stuff. When I went to Han's, the lady recommended this to me. I think this polish does an amazing job...

    I love this! I just bought it and it looks fab over Essie's Wicked - really capturing the trend of the season. I've also tried it over Revlon's Steel-her Heart -- very cool. I love how fast it...

    I love, love, love matte nail polish so I bought this topcoat right away. I've been trying to use this topcoat, but I always end up taking it off right after I've applied it. The topcoat dries...

    Wow! This is a fun product. I have used it over various brands of nail polishes and it completely alters the look. It dries quickly, too. I find that it is most impressive over glitters, sparkles...

    i pretty much have a love/hate relationship with this topcoat. i love the look of this when it's freshly applied. it turns out perfectly matte over any color and seems to give it a whole new look....

    I guess I'm the debbie downer here in that I'm not really feeling this product. I was completely swooning over matte polishes as soon as I saw them but once I put them on, they kind of lack the...

    I LOVE this topcoat. I've been trying some of the matte nail polishes from OPI and sephora by OPI and i've been really disappointed with their chunky, uneven application. I was about to give up on...

    I agree with the other reviews, but keep in mind that it IS a ten dollar topcoat...for the price, I was expecting no application issues at all. It's possible to get an even result, but it's also...

    Wow, Im MAD about Matte about You! This makes everything super matte and not just "sort of matte", if that makes sense. With this matte topcoat, I could make everything matte, which saved me money...

    This works really well as a matte top coat. I've tried it with a dark red, and at first, I thought it was too intense, but by the next day, it totally works right. Doesn't look so great with a...

    I got this because I thought it would make more sense than buying a lot of matte nail polishes. This really does make any nail polish matte in seconds like it claims and dries fast. Would no...
