Matte Nail Polish, A Knock Out

February 9, 2009 4:25 pm

For recovering hardcore kids who spent their disgruntled youths scribbling on appendages with a black Sharpie or a bottle of Wite-Out, matte nails are nothing new. For those members of the movement who grew up but not out of their chain-wearing, head-banging ways, there’s ManGlaze, the branded bottled version of the look that got its humble beginnings at Magma, a punk and hardcore festival in Yokohama, Japan. If you like the idea of a no-shine manicure but fall into neither of the above categories, Knock Out Cosmetics’ Flatte collection will keep you on trend, without having to attend a Slipknot concert. The brainchild of makeup artist Mike Potter, a.k.a. the man behind the hair and makeup for the stage and film versions of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, KO launched with two nail lacquers in black and powder (a dull white) and will debut calamine, a nude pink shade, at Henri Bendel this week.
