texture tips

Base: Sally Hansen Hard as Nails with Nylon "Lavender Lace Sheer" 1 coat

Tips: Sally Hansen Xtreme Nails "White On" 2 coats and Nicole by OPI "Red Texture" 1 coat, painted horizontally

Top coat: Sally Hansen Xtreme Nails "Nude" 2 coats

I kinda like these new texture coats! They're much like OPI shatter, however, you absolutely need a base coat. The shatters it is possible to do on a bare nail, these you can't. I usually test my polishes on paper to see if i'm gonna like it on the nail, when I tested this one, it was magenta on paper, and didn't crackle!
I was a little scared to try it on my nail, but it turned out a success after all!

sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead

Base Coat - Sally Hansen XTreme Nails "White On" 2 coats

Top: KleanColor Crack Nail Polish "Green Crackle" 1 coat.

Clearcoat: Sally Hansen Hard As Nails with Nylon "Nude" 2 coats

I really like this crackle, it's much more subtle than OPI. However, it's application process is slightly different. You MUST put this on on top of slightly wet nail polish, and you MUST apply a top coat while it is still wet. It needs to mix with the other wet polishes to achieve the crackle effect. It's much better with two top coats because with just one the crackle falls apart and just peels off without even trying. Hence, the tip damage to the index and pinky nails because I originally put on one top coat only.
