makeup review: metro chic matte polish

Last night I tried out Metro Chic, a new matte nail polish from Sephora's OPI partnership. I used Chip Skip underneath because it's matte as well. Here is the finished product with two coats. It was much more matte than I thought it would be, if that's even possible. I thought it would have some satin-y finish. The polish itself isn't thick at all, so I put an extra coat on after this one.
I'm still deciding whether I like it or not. I did get a chip this morning but the rest look alright. I think I'll end up putting a top coat on it. I do like look of a glossy gray. The matte? Eh... I'm not sure. Maybe it takes some getting used to.

I'm excited about the gray colors that are in style right now... but I'm just not into the matte thing. I think that might be one trend I have to skip completely.

That is very unique. I bet it would look great with purple, black or Grey clothes. xoxo

Thanks for reviewing this-- I was curious how it turned out. I'm not a huge fan of matte finishes, but I think the gray looks nice!
