ManGlaze Matte is Murder

First up, if you haven't heard of ManGlaze, what rock have you been living under?

ManGlaze currently offers 13 matte shades, and 2 matte topcoats (one clear and the other is a glitter top coat which I'm dying to try). They have the craziest, in-yer-face names for their polishes and they make no apologies for them!

Today I'll be showing you Matte is Murder, a matte black polish.

This is one coat of Matte is Murder. Now, we all know matte polishes dry REALLY quickly. You don't have to paint your nails with lightning speed but you still have to be quick enough. I've read a few sources and generally, it's adviced not to use a base coat below matte polishes as it may cause the application of the polish to be more streaky but considering how quick matte polishes normally chip, I decided to paint a coat of NailTek II (a matte base coat).

Back to the above picture, as you can see, with one coat, the polish does appear streaky but fear not.

This is two coats and the second coat definitely even things out. Yes, it's still a little streaky but I'm going to blame it on my application and not the polish. I haven't been painting my nails very often lately and so I've kind of gotten rusty with my application "skills" so I tend to have to take longer to paint my nails, which was what probably caused the streaks. Plus, my pictures are really zoomed in and the streaks aren't that noticeable irl. Seriously, go look at The TraceFace Philes' swatches and you'll see how awesome the ManGlaze formula is.

Another thing about ManGlaze polishes is their label designs. THEY ARE RIDICULOUSLY COOL. Seriously, look! It's art on a polish bottle!

I love that the labels are all matte too, really amps up the whole matte thing ManGlaze has going.

I then proceeded to paint glossy tips. I've seen so  many matte manicures with glossy tips and I've always wanted to try it! Plus, it's an added "cheat code" to help make your matte manicure last a little longer too.

One last thing. You don't ever have to worry about ManGlaze polishes looking flat. Matte does not have to look flat. No no...

...because when the sun hits this gorgeous polish, you can see turquoise and pink glitters! I mean, seriously, LOOK AT THIS BEAUTY. You have to click on the picture to enlarge it and see Matte is Murder in its full glory!

I don't know about you but I'm already convinced I need more ManGlaze. SERIOUSLY. I can't wait to see how Fatty's Got More Blood, ILF and Lesbihonest (love the name!) will look like on my nails!
