It depends on personal preference and the occasion. Matte nails are more subtle and sophisticated, while glossy nails are more glamorous and eye-catching. Matte nails are great for everyday wear, while glossy nails are perfect for special occasions or when you want to make a statement.
What happens when you put matte over gitter?
