Crackle/Shatter

     Today I am going to talk about one of my favorite things to do with my nails. I call it crackle, but the OPI website calls it shatter, so I guess you can call it whatever you want. Crackle/ Shatter looks like this.

When I first saw this, I thought it had to be done by hand and I was like, wow, that must take alot of time. But really it's quite easy.

1. First you apply a base coat of normal nail polish. It can be any color you like.

2. Wait for it to dry, then apply it again.

3. Then take some crackle nail polish.


You buy this at most stores that sell nail polish. Apply it onto your nail just like it was another layer of you base coat.

********You want to make sure that your base coat and your crackle colors go well together. You also want to be sure that the two colors are very different, because if they are too alike you won't be able to see the crackle as well.

4. Wait for it to dry, and the VOILA!!!
