The next day after my OPI’s Do You Lilac It? with Shatter, I felt it was boring and needed pizzazz. So I added glitter, naturally.
My Nubar haul also came in coincidentally, so what we have on top is Nubar Purple Fire. The name is very misleading– it isn’t purple. Just an explosion of glitter 🙂
Check out the colors standing out!

Hehe attempt at punning… Let’s see how it goes? Stretching it? Eh, maybe. Ok.
We have OPI Do You Lilac It? here. Which is a very light lilac, more of pink actually to me, under OPI Shatter. I experimented with thickness and direction of the brush strokes, and as you can see it does create a very different look.
Pardon the chop job hehe 😀
The pinky is the thickest layer I ever did, and horizontal– you can see how chunky it really is.
Yes I felt the need for a million pictures. Thoughts? Do you like horizontal or vertical strokes?
Also, you know– It seems that Shatter doesn’t work on everyone, or over any polish? My roomie begged to borrow it and… It didn’t work for her! It just dried matte and clumpy on the top of her toenails. She did choose a Sinful Colors polish, but I doubt that Shatter would have refused to work over a certain polish? Weird. 😛
China Glaze is releasing a Crackle collection, which will have different crackle colors!! I am SO ordering that when it comes out! 😀

My cousin wanted to see how the OPI Shatter worked, so here’s a video of it in action! 🙂 The magic really does happen before your eyes, this is just so neat

Guess who came in? That’s right– the OPI Katy Perry collection! I’m so excited for this 🙂
eee~ see what’s peeking on the left? Shatter! I got so excited when it came on I plopped it immediately on an accent finger of my Harlow funky french manicure.
I was a little disappointed– it didn’t do that amazing crackle effect like I’ve seen on other blogs, but maybe it has a different effect on matte finishes? Nevertheless I soldiered on, breaking out China Glaze Custom Kicks and Snow.
China Glaze Custom Kicks. When I photographed this at first for a personal swatch (would you ever be interested in seeing my swatches??) I thought there was something wrong with my camera, or me. This polish is actually a very strong teal green but in all of my pictures it showed up as BLUE. So when I googled for other people’s pictures I saw they had the same problem. Looks like this is just shy 🙂
Edited: Apparently my Flip takes pretty great color accurate videos? Here’s a snapshot, which is a screenshot of what the Flip thinks Custom Kicks’ true color is (and it matches it wonderfully) however blurry.
CG Snow. Pardon the messy application, Snow was very streaky and HARD to get even with.
Thoughts? I love this!! 😀 I need like, 300 bottles of this stuff. For serious.
