I bought Black Enough? because I could not find any Matte black. Everywhere I went they would be sold out! Anyways, I love how fast it dries but it doesn’t have ANY staying power. I will get a chip in a matter of hours. Is there a Matte base or top coat that I can use to help with this? BYW I LOVE your site. Been checking it out for 4 days straight now.

In general I am not a huge fan of mattes because I just adore that glossy finish of a perfect creme. However, I am surprised at how attracted I am to the shimmery matte of Studded! I’ve been very “off” shimmers and glitters lately (they can just be too much sometimes) but I think the matte shimmers might be a good middle ground for me. Not to mention that Studded is an amazing gunmetal silver that is ROCKIN’.

Seeing your picture of Studded really makes me regret that I did’nt buy it. And now it’s probably sold out. I’m gonna have stop by a MAC counter tomorrow and see.

huh, i dont know, studded is unique but ive always prefer true mattes and this is a first black matte nail polish that i know that i could purchase. so ill definitely take black enough since i absolutely love black. it makes me happy that i could get it. =)

I’m a MAC girl at heart, but somehow have never bought one of their polishes. Studded may just be my first! I’m loving metallics lately.

Wow, studded really is pretty, and I’m not even that huge of a fan of matte polishes!

That’s a shame. I randomly saw a display of the original Orly mattes at a local CVS. It was one with a pretty big beauty department so maybe try one near you since they carry Orly. I’ve never seen seasonal collections there before but it’s worth a try.

Thank you for catching that! My proofreading skills failed me today! I meant that MAC’s mattes are similar to the other matte polishes we’ve seen from Orly, Zoya, OPI, etc.

Studded looks to have a similar finish as the Orly Metal Chic collection. I still yearn for Iron Butterfly,but alas, the Sally stores in my area ran out quick.
