Matte fingernails: this is how it works

Now we've told you what utensils you need for the matte effect - let's move straight on to the instructions:

• Paint your fingernails as usual, i.e. use the base coat first and then the gloss polish.

• For each fingernail: Moisten the brush with baking powder and go over the still MOIST nails with it. Work quickly and evenly.

• Leave the baking soda to work in and wipe off any excess with a clean brush.

Tip: You can also use corn flour and baby or body powder instead of baking powder. The matt effect also works with potato starch.
