I have the shatters in black, turquoise and pink. The pink is the only one that I found shattered properly. The turquoise is gorgeous but for me it only ever cracks in about 1 place on the nail, which isn't the effect I desired. The black is the worst, it was really thick when I opened it and because it is so thick, it never dried for me and just sat there all sticky on my nail. I only used the black several times and now the whole bottle is completely dried and caked up, the nail polish has separated from the sides and even nail polish thinner wouldn't be able to salvage it. It's basically now an empty bottle with a small ball of rock hard polish, so disappointing. With such a really expensive price, you can find a much cheaper one that works better.

Tips: Use nail thinner on them when they are new as they are quite thick and sticky.
Like the title says, I find this very hard to get the shatter to work properly; like I don't want to put too much polish but then I don't want to under use and this is my problem. I think that if you're a beginner, then it's best to stay clear cause you're just wasting your money. But if you are a pro, then this should be no sweat for you. I only have the white one and It looks great if you've done it right!
When shatter nail polish was all the rage I bought this in black as black looks great with everything. And it did it worked really well for a while but once it got older and I used it less, the liquids inside the bottle started separating and even after shaking well didn't shatter anywhere near as well as it did at the start. Also it took really long to dry.
I really do not like this product. It only works on certain nail polish, you always need a top coat, it chips way too easy. And I feel that it looks to tacky... I guess thats why the fad only lasted a month!
The product works well and it looks pretty cool but you definitely need to a few coats underneath to get a great look. I have 4 colours and although I had a lot of fun in the beginning, the novelty has worn off and I won't be using it again.
I find that this has lately gone out of fashion, when first released this product was all the rage! Does work well if you are patient and have the time to wait for the first coat to try and then apply the shatter other wise it tends to smudge and the affect will be ruined!
So this says what is does and i loved it when it came out but once the bottle is open it really only lasts a short period of time before it doesn't shatter properly and goes clumpy mine lasted about a month.
Tips: Keep nail polish in the fridge makes it last longer
Tried it a few times and not overly fussed on it.. It looked streaky I didn't understand what all the fuss was about.. Wouldn't buy again
Tips: I did find a couple of clear coats over top would make the shatter stand out more
I own all the metallic, sparkly shatter polishes in this range and I must admit, I haven't touched them in months. I have always loved them over a black base polish as they would stand out a lot more but even so, I find the end result looks a bit disappointing. The last time I opened a bottle it had turned gluggly, which also doesn't leave me impressed.
Tips: I find if you love more classy designs when it comes to your nails, this product probably isn't right for you. Unless you love experimenting and are into edgy sort of looks :)
I will start off saying that I don't knownignit was me and my 'technique' or of this is just crap but I wasn't impressed with the look after. I spent the 15 dollars I read instructions and it looked like ass. Not what I was expecting especially because of all the hype around this product. I will never stray from my usual 'boring' plain nail polish again. Lesson learnt!
