Crackle FX Polish Review

hi everyone!

it sure has been a while since my last post. last week was a busy week for me & then i was sick over the weekend as well, so i didnt have the time to post. but im better now! so today, i bring you a review!

a few weeks back, the very sweet Nicole of Pink Nails emailed me and asked if i wanted to review some Crackle FX Polishes.

she kindly sent me three bottles for a review:

Sky Blue, White, & Black.

Nicole also sent me a letter with some tips for using the Crackle FX polishes. she suggested to wait until the base coat & nail polish are both done drying before applying the crackle polish...and that Crackle FX is supposed to give a matte look, so to not apply top coat over it.


one coat of Sky Blue over 2 coats of China Glaze's Sea Spray. no top coat.


just for fun, i applied top coat on my middle & pinky nail.


one coat of White over 2 coats of China Glaze's Sea Spray. no top coat.


again, top coat on both middle & pinky nail.


here is one coat of Black over ...i forget what polish im using as base X_____X


and here is with top coat on middle & pinky nail.

im not a big fan of crackle/shatter polishes, but overall, i liked these. White was my favorite~

Crackle Fx polishes are being sold at $3.00 over at Nicole's site, Pink Nails so be sure to check it out! :)

once again, thanks to Nicole for sending me these to review!

have a great one!,
