Yay for the weekend!! Anyone doing anything fun? Last night I got a few things at Ulta and Sallys(Poshe Super Fast Drying Top Coat being one of those things because I’m hoping it can be my Seche Vite healthier-replacement [it’s 3-Free]. I’ll let you know after I’ve tried it a few times) but I’ll swatch some of my new polishes later.
For today, I bring you a mani that I saw on Kewt-ified Nails here a few days ago. Go check out and follow her site!! I had similar polishes so it was easy for me to try it out the same day I read her blog post!! 🙂 Hope you like it as much as I did. I think the best looking matte manis are usually done with darker colors or glitters/shimmers. The matte gives it an awesome look!
I used:
Sinful Colors Black on Black
Wet n Wild Party Of Five Glitters
Essie Matte About You
Very easy and quick mani, yet I love it!! What do you think? Thanks for reading!

Wow stunning!!! Looks sexy!
@Jossie, thanks!!
Love this look!
@Wendy, thanks!!
Obsessed! I think I will have to recreate this soon!!
@Amber, hope you do! It's definitely a new fav!
I love it! Why don't I have a multi colour glitter so I can recreate this?!
Love it!
@Laura, my wetnwild was so cheap, under $2 if you can find it!! and thanks!
@imfeelingnail-venturous, thank you!
Love it! Yeah, the WnW Party of 5 is not as dense as some of the Happy Birthday dupes– I believe Milani Gems is the most dense, but that one is difficult to find for me (maybe easier for you?).
Looks great thanks for showing me! 😀
Gorgeous. Loving this look lately.
It's really nice, I love that the black is matte. 🙂
I love this mani, it's so different! I have the same matte top coat but I never use it. I really should!!
Thanks everyone!!
Omg I LOVE this and I have all the components to recreate it!
To the people looking for Milani Gems: I saw it on beautyjoint.com pretty cheap!
@Amanda, thanks!! And I appreciate you sharing, I keep hearing good things about that site. I'll be checking it out!
yay for matte sparkles! this is a great combo!
@Rachel, thanks! I can see myself doing different variations of this a lot!
mom and i tried this the other weekend and mine didn't turn out as well… i think/know i put too many coats of the party of five on so it was like a glitter overload instead of looking more like stars in the sky, which i think yours looks like here. we also used a blue matte, not a black. how did you get it to not turn glossy when you put the party of five over the matte? did you just use a very thin coat?
