When you're in a rush...

**Thank you blogger, for eating this post up :(. At least it wasn't totally deleted though...**

Hey everyone~ Suede/matte polishes are such useful polishes when you're short for time. They dry extremely quickly and are pretty easy to apply.

Below I have two coats of OPI Lincoln park after dark suede and Zoya Harlow.

Wanting to spice things up, I then added some nail stickers I received from Born Pretty Store.

I finished the mani with a top coat to protect the stickers. Unfortunately they didn't stay on too well this time. This mani didn't even last a day without some of the stickers falling off.

What do you think? Do the polishes look better suede/matte or glossy? ^^

    I've just buy a Suede (Here today, Aragon tomorrow) and I'm waiting that it arrive! But I love the three finish. The stickers that you apply are a plus! Greate!

    Lincoln Park After Dark suede is my go to quickie! try a top coat over your stickers and then matte it with something like essie's matte about you or china glaze's matte top coat. Love this mani :D

    I'm really not sure why they fell of so quickly this time, they held up much better the first time! :(
