My current top 3 OPI colors are:
Lincoln Park After Dark |
Do You Think I'm Tex-Y? |
Teenage Dream (from the Katy Perry line) |
Their newest polish is their shatter line. It's a colored top coat that gives your nails a crackled look. It comes in black, white, sliver and a few other colors. I was definitely intrigued!
It's supposed to look like this:
Mine came out more like this (granted I have short and stubby nails):
Not quite like the picture...I still can't decide if I put too little or too much on. My toes came out a little bit better...You're going to have to take my word because I couldn't get a decent picture of my square Fred Flintstone feet...
Like with most things I think you need to practice. There are a few pointers I'd like to share.
- It dries REALLY fast so don't try putting on too thin of a layer. I did that at first and it dried before I could color my whole nail.
- Use contrasting colors and make sure your base coat is completely dry before putting on the shatter.
- Practice, practice, practice
- The shatter has a matte finish, a shiny topcoat helps a lot.
Overall I really like the shatter, and so do my girls. I can't wait to try it with all my colors!
