Matte nail polish is a polish that has a flat finish as opposed to shine. Matte is super in right now but the popular options for people who want to try it out are to buy a brand new nail polish from a store or use their own eye shadow to make it themselves. Thankfully, there is another way to easily make affordable matte nail polish.

Sephora offers a clear top coat that will turn a nail polish into a matte color but it is $10 and a pain to have to go out and buy a new polish. Sephora doesn’t even sell colored matte nail polishes. Matte nail polishes can be bought at a pretty cheap price at the drugstore but they are also cheap in quality and chip very easily… you can’t add a clear topcoat of protection because that would ruin the matte effect.
The next option is making your own matte nail polish. Most DIY matte nail polish projects online suggest using eye shadow and clear polish to make matte. This is problematic because you have to find an eye shadow color that appeals as a nail polish and waste it.
Thankfully, there is a very simple way to make matte nail polish with only three ingredients: regular nail polish, a disposable container/surface, and corn starch.
