Shatter Nail Polish

I love this nail polish. I bought the blue one. First you put on a contrasting shade of nail polish, wait for it to dry completely and then put the shatter polish over the top. It works really quickly and then you get the shattered effect. I get lots of comments about who does my nails enough though I do it myself. I have bought this several times now.

Tips: Use a contrasting shade for your base coat.

Awesome nail polishes.

These nail polishes are very trending and stylish looking. They add a nice touch to your polish, makes it look that little bit more detailed than one simple colour. I own a dark purple and black. Although I would quite like to purchase a lighter colour which may suit other colours better than the dark ones I own.

Okay..

I have it in black and it takes some practise to get it right. You need to make sure you have enough polish on the brush to cover the entire nail in 3 brush strokes because it dries really fast and will start cracking almost immediately. If you need to go back and dip into the bottle halfway through painting a single nail it would've already dried and you will muck up the nail as half of it will be a thin coat and another half a thick coat. This becomes a problem when you've used up most of the bottle and need to really reach around to get polish on the brush.

The consistency of this nailpolish is a bit thin/watery/runny for my liking and what annoyed me at the start was I either did not have enough polish on my brush (which left me with a streaky light grey finish which kind-of shattered but looked poorly done) or too much polish on my brush (leaving a thick messy look which wouldn't even shatter).

After a few months the polish started to become gloopy on the brush and I just stopped using it.

Tips: You need to make sure to have enough polish on the brush- not too much as it wont shatter and not too little because you can only do a single coat of this, otherwise you'll be painting over the shatter and it will just end up looking messy.

Great but dries too fast

I love these nail polishes and I love the final look when I want a unique look. I have 3 of them but I don't use them regularly because I can't get it right the first time and by the time I put more nail polish on the brush it's already dry. And if I re-apply another layer it becomes lumpy and ugly.

I usually have my artistic friend put it on for me when I want to use it or apply it by myself if I have time to remove and re-do each nail about 3-4 times XD

Tips: Practice your applying skills and only apply once.

Sometimes works

first time I used this nail polish I loved it because I thought the effects of it was so cool. It did work for a while but for some reason it stopped working after a while and it became hard to apply and thick.

Shatter nail polish

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.

Loved it

I loved everything about this nail polish. Great colours, easy to apply. I loved the way it shattered. It did everything it said it would plus more. I loved it. Only thing was that it didn't last long.

Honestly

I thought the hype or these was well overated when they first came on the market , when I got around to actually using a shatter nail polish the outcome was nothing like the pictures you see on the net I think these are probably best used by a professional.

think I grew out of the phase

OPI Shatter nail polish, I remember that was the hype when they first came out. Everyone went crazy for them and I was one of those people. I mustve had like almost 10, all different coloured shatter, all blew my mind. I think the OPI Shatter nail polish is definitely very cool, very edgy and gets people looking which is always good. I just believe I've grown out of that phase of my life and now tend to stay more towards pastel and calm nail designs :)

Tips: When applying the shatter coat onto the nail, be sure to be as still as possible as it works best with just one coat. Two coats starts to mess the shatter look up abit.

Not that great

I was expecting good things from this as it is from o.p.i but was very disappointed with it. It didn't go on that smoothly and didn't look good at all. I have tried other brands which are cheaper and worked much better.
