Matte black refers to the flat finish of a black-colored item with no gloss or shine. This color is popular in the fashion and automotive industries.
According to Elle Canada, matte black eyeshadow provides the base for achieving a makeup look that resonates in the modern fashion world. "Ensure a pared-down look by using matte eye-makeup textures," advises Aston. “Anything shimmery will make it feel like a bad ’80s flashback.” Car and Driver Magazine suggests using glossy black details to provide contrast, as seen on the 2011 BMW M3 "Frozen Black" Special Edition. The flat finish gives a sophisticated look that contrasts nicely with chrome accents on cars or with glitzy jewelry in fashion.
