Kelier Crack Polish - Purple

It's time for a Purple Crackle. It works like Red (pink!) crackle, just the brush is even worse, kind of turned up, total disaster.

My phone doesn't love purples so it's more blue than purple on my pictures. In RL is definetely warmer and pretty purple creme.

For the base color I used 1 coat of Essence - Black Hype from their Black & White collection - a white creme with kind of plastic finish. This is the worst white polish I've ever tried.

I didn't apply TC on these pictures. They're really hard to remove, but when I tried foil method it goes off quickly and smoothly just like the glitter. I'm really avoiding rubbing my nails with remover so the foil method is the best discovery ever.

What do you think? Like it or not? With a perfect color combination they really look cool. I just wish the brush was better.

Kelier Crack Polish - Red

Lovely Jessica from Born Pretty Store sent me a lot of new goodies to try out. Let's start with crackle polish I was most excited.

This is Kelier Crack Polish in Red. Color definetely isn't red but shimmery hot pink. I applied 2 coats of Cheers to you by China Glaze's last Holiday collection - silver foil polish. I waited just a few minutes so the second layer was half dry and then I applied 1 coat of crackle polish. You must apply it over not fully dry manicure or the crackle won't stay on your nail. When I got it I applied it over my dry manicure and I could wipe off the pieces of crackle.

I really don't like the brush - It's imprecise, plastic and nothing special, but you don't have to be careful while you're applying the crackle. I recommend you to clean the cuticle line quickly, because later it's really hard to remove crackle polish. I'm using a nail polish remover without aceton, but probably it would go faster with acetone.

This crackle doesn't start crackling quickly like OPI's, Barry M, etc. so you have to wait for few minutes or use a hair dryer like I was, so the process was even quicker.

I didn't apply any layer of TC, but if you want that your manicure last longer, you should. After long shower pieces of crackles fell off the nail, so don't forget to use a coat of TC to seal the crackle on the nail.
If you want wider crackles apply a thick coat and if you want more crackles apply thinner coat and then the magic happens.

After using the crackle I recommend you to clean up the neck of the bottle, because it dries fast and when I opened a bottle there was a big piece of dry polish. It could seal the bottle.

I really like this kind of crackle effect, what do you think? Which one do you prefer more - this one or OPI's Black Shatter and similar? If it comes in pink, I really don't mind what kind of crackle it is.

You can buy this crackle here in 7 different colors (use a cuopon IVANA and get 10% discount), you can also enter my giveaway, where I'm offering 3 of them - this one, purple and blue one.

Tnx for watching,
Ivana
