So today's theme is your favorite color family and because I always have to do things my way, I chose Matte as my favorite color. Anyone who has been haunting my blog knows that I have been seriously obsessed with Matte polishes. I was inspired by Lucy at Lucy's Stash HERE. Here's what I came up with.
I started with two coats of a new polish to me, Layla Ceramic Effect Soft Touch Effect. The bottle I have only has the number 07 on it, although I have seen it called Queen Bordeaux on other sites. I finally found a bunch of Laylas at my local Ulta. I had heard that Ulta was carrying these, but this is the first time I had seen it. I LOVE this polish. It is a deep burgundy matte. Although you can use a matte coat over any polish, no matte coat can match the beauty of this finish. Want to see what I'm talking about? Click the pics below to see.

Then I added some funky french tips with China Glaze Stone Cold and dotted with China Glaze Gold Fusion. Want to see some more? Sure you do!
A simple mani, and if I were to do it again, I would make the tips a little smaller, but it is matte, so I LIKE IT! Now check all the other favorites.
Wow, cool matte you did there! I simply adore it! <3
