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!,

  3. I'm not too in love with the crackle trend either but these definitely look just as good as OPI and China Glaze's crackle polishes.

  4. I'm not that into the crackle trend either though I did pick up the OPI Silver Shatter because I thought it would make a good top coat. These ones seem to crackle more than it and I like the look better.

  5. Wow, I actually like that crackle pattern because it lets most of the base color show through. Nice!

  7. Hi :) So happy to have found your blog, I saw some photos of your nails over on Pinterest and immediately fell in love with the cuteness of them. This is definately the best nail blog I've ever found!
