![]() ![]() (Has anyone else noticed this, too?)Īnd if you apply the polish in circles, on a diagonal, or just not traditionally cuticle-straight-to-tip, you’ll get a different crackle pattern just like I mentioned in my OPI Black Shatter post. I applied them the same, so I’m attributing this to the formula. ![]() ![]() Plus a good top coat will also make Silver Shatter sparkle even more! (You can, however, wear it by itself, but it’ll be more prone to chipping and the shimmer isn’t as vivid as with a top coat.)Īlso, it seemed like while OPI Black Shatter created more linear cracks, OPI Silver Shatter gave me a variety of both linear and giraffe patterns. And, of course, I used my trusty Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat to seal it all. I found that Silver Shatter cracked and dried quickly when I used a thin coat. You have to experiment a bit to see what you prefer. With thinner coats, it created more cracks and it let the base color peek through, which is what I prefer. Some bloggers suggest using thicker coats, but when I tried that, there were too few cracks and it looked clumpy. If you go over the same area more than once, it messes up the way the cracks will turn out. If you don’t, the cracks won’t be as nice or it may not even crack at all.īecause of the goopey consistency of Silver Shatter, try to apply a single thin coat on each of your nails. Like with OPI Black Shatter, to avoid goof-ups, you must wait for your nail polish to fully dry before applying Silver Shatter. When you wear Silver Shatter out in the sun, it sparkles so brilliantly! Even when indoors with natural light coming in through the windows, it looks so lively. (I paired it with NARS Zulu, a near-black green jelly polish that I felt could use some cheering up.) While you can layer this crackle nail polish over any shade that tickles your fancy, because it’s a light silver, I suggest putting it over a darker polish so the contrast is more dramatic. It really ‘wakes up’ your nails, and it’s a fun way to change up a manicure that you’re already wearing or not impressed with. Silver Shatter by OPI is a super-sparkly silver that catches the light.
