when will it be available? do you think it will be all that different from their Male polish that is matte?
ReplyDeleteFirepail, hmm... it says August, but nothing more specific than that... I'd think the beginning of August in order to keep up with the matte trend? I think it will be more matte than the men's treatment, but I'm just speculating :)
ReplyDeleteThis is good news to me. I'll think I'll just buy the top coat. That'll keep me from spending even more money on new polishes.
ReplyDeleteAny word on whether you can use hand cream with this? All the other matte lines say no hand cream, and I, personally, am NOT okay with that! All that work to keep my cuticles in check, and they tell me to avoid moisturizing! I think not!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how fast this will dry...I'm so spoiled by my CND Air Dry. I want a mattifying top coat that dries my nail color too.
ReplyDeleteI am excited that it's formulated specifically to make polish matte. Perhaps it will be a good replacement for my age old Maybelline Matte top coat. Here's hoping!
thanks! I must have not read carefully, whoops!

Awww, we have to wait until August?
ReplyDeleteC'mon Essie, you need to get this out faster!
I couldn't wait for my essie matte finisher to come by mail & it did today. I immediately painted my nails real red from essie & on top essie matte finisher. In seconds the shiny color turned matte right before my eyes. I couldn't believe it. I loved it. Now the down side: It chips for any little thing & if you are not a professional manicurist your nails will look very messy. Matte is unforgiving. But I love matte finisher & the price
