Well manicured and neat black nails have been the safe go-to for a while now, but this year’s new black is matte black. Observe:
You don't need a special nail polish to do it either. Just a special top coat.
“OPI has launched this savvy product that can mattify all of your existing nail polishes,” says Freelance Nail Artist, Katie Dawes.
