How To Do Matte Yellow Nails at Home
Giving yourself the perfect matte yellow manicure at home is so easy that anybody can do it.
The supplies you will need include clippers, cuticle nippers or mani scissors, file, buffer, base, and top coats, and your matte yellow nail polish.
You are going to start by gently pushing the cuticles back and trimming any excess skin that is sticking up, the only skin you want to cut is the dry and dead skin that is sticking up.
Next, you will want to cut and/or file the nails to the shape and length you desire. Followed by a light buffing of the free edge and the base of the nail to get rid of any bumps, ridges, and sharp points.
Pro tip: when filing your natural nails, file them in one direction as opposed to back and forth.
That is it for your at-home manicure. Simple, tight? you can apply some acetone to the nail to clean it of any oils or products and begin polishing your base coat.
Finally, in long strokes from cuticle to free edge, apply the matte yellow nail lacquer, you can find matte nail lacquers on Amazon. Apply up to two coats and let it dry. The matte nail lacquer will dry matte and does not require a top coat of any kind.
If you use a navy blue nail polish that is not matte, that is perfectly fine. Just finish the look off with a matte top coat.
That’s a wrap.
