With lip glosses getting more lacquery and the season's hot patent leather accessories catching the light, aren't you tired of everything being so shiny?

That's why I think you're going to love the new Nicole by OPI Matte Lacquers.

These are very different than what you are used to.

First of all, they are not long wearing like your usual Nicole and OPI polishes. 

That's because you don't apply a "top coat, drying products or hand lotion when wearing Matte." But you can wear a base coat, which will keep it going for a couple of days longer than if you wear it on its own.

So it's a short-term look, but a great one.

I tried Positive Energy - a light silver (pictured above), and Razzle Dazzler - a dark gravelly black.

I love how edgy they look and how quickly it goes on. You'll also be pleased that there's no DBP, Toluene or Formaldehyde.

If you want to change things up, as I always do at this time of year, then you should get Nicole by OPI Matte Lacquers.
