When done right these look great. China glaze cracks really well and they have a nice range of Colors. I work at a beauty supply and the reviews are coming in top notch.
Instructions and the trick:
1. Apply base coat
2. Apply regular nail polish in the color of your choice as a base COLOR. Wait for it to dry well.
3. Apply your crackle color on top in a thin coat. Apply fast in about 2 sweeping strokes as this polish dries fast (hence the reason it cracks)
4. Wait for it to dry 3-5 minutes before applying the top coat.
5. Voila! Now admire your handy work :-)
7 Shades: Shine On (beige sparkle), Woodstock (radioactive pink), Love Light (baby pink sparkle), Hashbry (bright orchid), Magic Bus (emergency orange), Aquarius (electric teal), Psychedelic Sister (bright coral).
I love these colors, all of them are gorgeous and they last and wear well. I think this is the best summer nail polish collection yet! Also the bag is so cute and can double as a make up bag!

I love Essie Nail Polishes and have found that they tend to last a little longer than my OPI Nail Polishes. They don't fade or chip as fast. I also prefer the colors and small bottles by Essie. Check out the new colors by them and tell me what you think.
I will also post links to Amazon (they tend to be cheaper)
Btw Essie Nail Polish Contains No Formaldehyde, DBP or Toluene
