I look at quite a few blogs, and unfortunately did not bookmark where I first saw this polish! If you’re a reader let me know, and thank you.
The black ‘flatte’ polish, which dries to a completely matte finish comes from Knock Out Cosmetics, brainchild of make up artist Mike Potter. It’s also offered in a white ‘Powder’ and a pink ‘Calamine’, although when I tried to order the pink it wouldn’t let me add it to my cart, so I’m assuming it’s out of stock.
I really love the matte look! KO claims it’s incredibly chip resistant, but I just painted it on last night, so I have yet to confirm that claim. I’ve never worn black polish before, but this is really growing on me. I’d like to try it in a french manicure style as well-shiny clear on the nail, flatte black on the tip, or flatte black on the entire nail, made shiny on just the tip with clear topcoat.
