**Step 1: Gather Your Materials**
Before you begin, make sure you have all the necessary materials. This includes your base gel polish, color gel polish, matte top coat, alcohol wipes, a UV/LED lamp, and a nail buffer.
**Step 2: Prep Your Nails**
Start by removing any old polish and filing your nails to your desired shape. Then, gently push back your cuticles and buff the surface of your nails to create a smooth canvas for the gel polish.

**Step 4: Apply Color Gel Polish**
Once the base coat is cured, apply a thin layer of your chosen color gel polish and cure it under the lamp. You may need to apply a second coat for complete coverage, curing each layer as you go.
**Step 5: Apply Matte Top Coat**
After the color gel polish is fully cured, it's time to apply the matte top coat. Remember to apply thin, even layers, and be sure to cap the free edge of your nails. Cure the matte top coat under the lamp to achieve the desired matte effect.
**Step 6: Cleanse and Moisturize**
Once the matte top coat is cured, use alcohol wipes to cleanse any tacky residue left on your nails. Finish off by moisturizing your cuticles and hands for a professional, salon-worthy finish.
