Chipped right away!

I have some Matte nail polish that I wanted to use a top coat and keep it Matte. I rec'd a coupon in the mail for $2 off any polish and another $2 off for any top coat, base coat, or other type product of Essie. Since Essie is $8 a bottle, I thought I would give it a try. I used a grey matte polish, two coats. Then I added silver tiger stripes and topped it off with a coat of Essie Matte About You. In about an hour, I had a couple nails chipped already. I didn't do any thing, no typing, no dishes, nothing. Just watched tv. The next morning, after my shower, half the polish on all my nails was gone! I have never seen that before! So, IMO, this is a pass. I have read some had great exp. Perhaps I got a bad bottle or something. I bought a bottle of Hard Candy Matte-ly In Love and it was on for four days before I noticed tip wear. I still have the Essie so I might try again, but it is not my go to Matte top coat.

Love it!!

This is such a fantastic product. It can completely change the flavor of polishes you already own - I love how it works over any polish and any color. At $10, the price was a little steep, but for what it does I'd definitely buy it again!

Yes! Matte!!

I love the Matte Nail trend and if u love it, You def need this in your collection. Goes on smoothly and dries super fast. One thing i did notice that if u rub on the polish or it gets crazy oily that it does take the matte finish away a lil but good otherwise

This is a must have!

I read about this product a while ago and have been hunting it down ever since. I finally found it about a week ago at Ultra and I love it. I'm currently doing a review on http://www.youtube.com/dearnatural6... Matte About You, instinctly dries into a matte finish on any gloss polish. I even tried it on my high gloss polishes and it does the job. And I have a huge nail polish collection, check out the video under my profile!

Like it!

I do love this! You can use it on any color to make it matte but if you touch your nails a lot the matte factor dies down a bit. its still really good though and i recommend it!

LOVE IT

This, i think is one of the best things that i have in my nail polish collation because now i don't have to o out and buy a bunch of matte nail polishes, i have this one top coat that i can use with all of the nail polishes that i already have! :) when you first put the top coat on, don't panic! it will be shiny but once you give it time to dry it will have a beautiful matte finish! :)

This is a decent Matte Finisher. You have to apply it on, almost pretty thick so that it doesn't streak. It takes quite a while to dry, as it rehydrates your nail color after application. It gives you the ability to try a different look with your favorite nail color!

I have used this several times on many different polish colors and they all look amazing. It instantly doubles your nail polish collection with only buying one bottle. The only downside I have noticed is it has a tendency to chip easier than I would like.

Gorgeous and unique finish

I tried using OPI's Nail Envy Matte Coat, and it was terrible partly due to the fact that it's supposed to be a base coat. I was reading some nail blogs and most of them recommended Essie's Matte About You.A comparison with OPI suggests that it 'mattifies' the nail color more and leaves a smooth finish.
