OPI’s NEW Chrome Effects and Infinite Shine Glaze Toppers
After seasons of barely-there manicures and minimalist nail looks, chrome is officially back in the spotlight.
NTNA Season 8 Winner Emily Nash shows us a few of the endless possibilities for matte nail designs using Gelish Professional.


It’s no secret that Gelish is one of the most versatile professional nail brands available. Any design you’d like to create, you can surely create it with Gelish. Next Top Nail Artist S8 winner Emily Nash (@nailsbyem) finds the brand particularly wonderful for matte designs, which are extra popular in the fall and winter.
Take a look below at some of Nash’s fun matte looks that she created with Gelish.
This look reminds us of a fuzzy cheetah print jacket from the ‘80s. Nash expresses that she loves the black and tan color combo for the cold months, and we feel the same way.
Nash creates this classic cold weather nail trend with a delicate swirly pattern. The acrylic powder sprinkled on top gives the nail that matte texture of a warm sweater.
For this festive look, Nash uses Gelish’s Blooming Gel to create some ghostly shapes, completing them with cute little faces. She mattifies the look to get a creepier texture and ends up with some spooky Halloween perfection.
Gelish is the perfect medium for all of your nail design needs year-round. Get your creativity on with their full range of products.
