Nothing To Get MATTE About!
Ok. Yes, this only cost $2.00 but you definitely get what you paid for. I applied this to my Black French manicure. Not only did it not make my nails Matte but left this chalky white rim around my cuticle on every nail. It was bad!! Ending up costing me more because I had to remove all my nail polish. Then I had to repaint my Black tips of my French manicure and use more forms(I'm not so good a free hand). So, another hour doing my nails. Time is money. All and all I'd say this product sucks!
Just awful.
No matter how few or many coats I applied I always found this made my nails just look chalky. They never had a nice matte velvety look. Won't be using it again.
Picked this up because it was only $1.50, but it's now clear why. I tried it on several polishes, it's very ineffective. Picture attached with a quick and dirty sample of four polishes - each finger has three coats of pure ice on top of the polish - from left to right, OPI's "My Dogsled is a Hybrid", Sally Hansen's "Barracuda", China Glaze's "Lemon Fizz", Joe Fresh's "Purple Haze". Three coats, still shiny. And quite honestly, this is the best result I've ever gotten. Over several attempts it has dried streaky and often with small white patches that look like that cheap snow in a can - not in a good way, just randomly speckled across the nail.
