Manicure painted in Oyster Noir, a crème matte lacquer

Crème Matte

Oyster Noir

The shade that behaves like a neutral and reads like a statement

★★★★★233 reviews$30

Smoke, taupe and a whisper of mauve. Oyster Noir covers in a single coat thanks to a high pigment load, and dries to a suede-soft matte that makes hands look sculpted. Pair with Lustre Top Coat if you'd rather have it glossy.

How to use

The four-step ritual

  1. 01

    Prep

    Clean the nail thoroughly — dark crèmes show every trace of oil.

  2. 02

    Base

    Grace Base Coat is required with deep pigments to prevent staining.

  3. 03

    Colour

    One generous coat, or two thin ones for depth. Work quickly, matte sets fast.

  4. 04

    Seal

    Leave bare for matte, or add Lustre Top Coat to convert it to high gloss.

Store upright away from sunlight. Roll the bottle between your palms — never shake — before use.
