How To Make Your Matte Burgundy Nail Polish Last

Matte polish chips faster than glossy, shimmery, and cream versions.

For the DIY nail maven, it’s an opportunity to experiment with different hues. Think about switching your style in a snap! After all, that’s what nail dreams are made of. 

The good news is there are steps you can take to get the most out of your mani.

Read on to learn how you can make your eye-catching mani last longer:

  • File your nails down because longer nails take the hit faster than shorter ones.
  • Get rid of any traces of oil on your nails before you get down to business. In addition, pushing your cuticle back allows the polish to adhere properly and prevents chipping.
  • Choose a matte topcoat. It will seal in color, give your mani some top-tier staying power, and keep environmental elements from fading the hue. 
  • Matte dries quickly so apply it in multiple thin, light coats, allowing each layer to dry completely before going in for another coat. As a bonus, it will extend the lifespan of your polish. 
  • Avoid getting creams and lotions on your nails. They can damage the surface of your matte fingertips, dull their finish, and cause them to chip. 

And that’s it. You’re all set to flash those burgundy beauties for a good while!
