Fall-esque Matte Nails



Here is a fun matte fall idea. Start with your favorite base coat. Then go with a creamy color, the color I used was Wet'n'Wilds megalast Sugar Coat, on all your nails leaving your pinkies undone except for base coat. (I recommend three coats of this color as it is very see through, I only did two coats in the picture.) Next, if it makes it easier for you, tape off all the nails except for your pinkies, as you will do a full coat of brown on your pinkies. Make a nice crescent shape on the tips of your nails for a nice accent. Once those are dry apply a silver fleck nail polish on top of the brown if you wish, I did as it made it really stand out. Or you can just apply a clear top coat and then a matte top coat on the tips of your nails. On the pinky fingers I added a tear gem and applied my matte top coat on after that. Clean up any mess on your edges and you are done. Very simple and elegant and goes with just about anything you have that is fall-esque and will be perfect to wear around family for the upcoming holiday, Thanksgiving. Enjoy!
If you recreate this idea, feel free to upload and tag yourself! I would love to see your recreations!
