Sugar Coated Pink Crackle

So, I was incredibly bored, which I was thoroughly enjoying (haha!) and couldn't decide how I wanted my nails to look :) I started off with two coats of OPI Princesses Rule! Which is a gorgeous powered pink sparkle polish, which was pretty...
....but I wasn't satisfied, so I then coated it with two coats of China Glaze White Cap which is an incredible iridescent sheer glitter...and still bored with the mani, I added OPI Black Shatter!
The winning trio!

Some Katy Perry Nail Shatter!

After I used my SH crackle, I had to compair it to my OPI Black Shatter. So I came up with this fun mani! I used one of my all time favorite polishes for the base color, Nicole by OPI in The Next CEO. This is seriously one of my favorite polishes. It goes on so smooth, and while it takes a few coats to really get that foiled gold look, it's completely worth it! So this is 3 coats of The Next CEO:
I waited for it to dry completely, and then went over it with OPI Black Shatter, I really like this formula of polish minus how thick it is. Sometimes I find that it dries super quick when I'm trying to cover my entire nail and I end up with bumps. But it still shatters better than SH Crackle in my opinion:

I'm Back I promise!

I am so sorry for my delay in posting! Life and summer caught up with me, I promise it won't happen again!! But while I wasn't posting on here, I was actively documenting my new manis!! For this mani I used my new CC polish in coo-coo-cachoo. This is the first CC polish I've ever tried, and I love the color!! I used 3 coats to get it to a bright rich hot orange. I went out and bought a few more CC polishes since! :) I then used SH new Cackle Overcoat in Fractured Foil for the shatter.
I actually really like the SH crackle, more than I originally thought I would! The contrast between these two colors isn't that strong, but I love the look! I had a ton of people doing a double take on my nails with this mani!
