A nail cosmetic used with a buff to add shine to the nail is a ______ nail polish.

  1. Gloss

  2. Matte

  3. Dry

  4. Quick-dry

The correct answer is: Dry

A Gloss is a type of finish that creates a shiny, reflective surface. While gloss can also add shine to nails, it is not used in conjunction with a buff. B: Matte is a type of finish that creates a flat, non-reflective surface. It is not used with a buff and does not add shine to nails. D: Quick-dry nail polish is formulated to dry faster than traditional nail polish. It may or may not add shine to the nail, but it does not require a buff to achieve a shiny finish.
