OPI Shatter Review

I like the shatter effect and found it easy to apply myself at home. I did find that the white did not work as well as the silver and black shatter I purchased. An easy and affordable option if you don't want to go to a salon for a different look.

I loved opi shatter at first but its a lot harder to do than you would think. you also have to have a color underneath which sometimes messes with the look of the nail polish. Its nice if you have the time and do it right.

I have purchased/been gifted a number of shatter OPI's and have to say I am not very impressed with them.

I find that some of them look really tacky and it does take a bit of practice to get the right amount of polish on in order for them to shatter with a nice look to them.

You need just a base covering- too thin and it shatters too much/ you cant see the colour very well. Too much and it hardly shatters and just looks messy.

The other problem I found was that after really short amounts of time the nailpolish went gluggy and unusable in its jar. This was something I found for all my 4 shatter polishes.

At first, everyone was all about shatter polish and so I went out and got a few OPI shatter polishes.

I found them rather hard to work with, yes it became easier and looked better with practice but I still didn't completely get the look I was expecting or wanting.

One thing that completely annoyed me was after paying the ridiculous amount for each polish they went gluggy and dried very quickly.

I wouldnt try this nail polish again yea it cracks but not as good as it says it does and it dosent last that long very dissapointed

Mehhhh... everybody talked about these nail polishes for quite a while but I never really toke interest in them. It is pretty easy to stuff up. Doesn't really appeal to me. It's okay. Doesn't actually shatter a lot, it shatters a small amount as what the product advertises. But yeah it's okay. Not worth the 25 dollars though, you can get them cheaper online and in sales

When done right it looks awesome however I had trouble getting it to look nice found it a bit fiddly.

love this shatter nail polish does exactly what it says it does and creates a cool different look. heaps of awesome colours to choose from too

I had high hopes when the Shatter polish was released as it looked like it would be amazing. I was a little disappointed with the product though as the polish shatters differently depending on whether you do a heavy coat or a light coat and I found most of the times I would have a mix of nails that looked amazing and some that would look so bad I would need to re-do them. This was probably me just being picky but it was annoying. I also found out that if the dried layer on the rim of the bottle flakes into the polish it can cause the shatter to stop working and unfortunately this happened to my black after only being used 2 or 3 times. It is a very good idea for a nail polish but it was a bit disappointing for me.

I got OPI shatter nail polish in Gold as a gift from my MIL. I was happy to receive it as I collect nail polishes and this was my very first shatter collection. The consistency was thin unlike other OPI nail polishes. What I didn't like was it doesn't really match with all nail polishes. I could only make it look good on Red or Blue nail polishes. Same applies to other shatter polish colors, it's hard to pair with other colors. After 3-4 months, the nail polish in the bottle completely dried, it had solidified in to a small ball in the bottle. I was disappointed as I have many OPIs but this particular one was a shocker, even the nail lacquer thinner couldn't come to rescue. Overall I really liked the look of the shatter on my nails, it stands out and gets noticed too.
