Black and Gold !

I love the black and gold ones! I think they work the best! I had no problem with them chipping or anything. It also dried pretty fast... I love putting the black over a light pink! Super cute (:

Trash!

Even if the crackle was good and fashionable, which it wasn't, the way this tears up your nails is just unbelievable. I have weak nails that crack and peal as it is, this polish doesn't help that in the least. It makes things worse! Even if I had great strong nails I wouldn't buy this again because the crackle really isn't that great

Good Enough

I have all of the colors and they all work pretty well. The only one that I have a true issue with is the Blue( Distressed Demim) it is super thick and won't crackle properly :(
As far as drying time, it takes waaaay too long! But if I have an istant dry top coat it works out just fine!

Spend more for a successful crackle polish

This was pretty cheap and it didn't work that well I my nails. The crackle didn't really work, and it damaged my nails a lot. This product felt watery, and it was not the best quality. I think it is worth it to spend a bit more on the OPI polish because it is better quality. It is worth it in the end just to spend a bit more.

Horrible

I got these babies when they first came out in Pink & White they were horrible. I tried multiple times with different colors, finishes, glitters, etc and no matter what I did they did not work! It dries SUPER fast and can not be put on in layers or even in more than one swatch! It was very dissapointing considering I love Sally's products. I ended up returning them for some Salon Effects :)

I have this in silver and it "eh ok". I also have it in black and I loooove it! I get a lot of complements when I wear both. It last the normal amount of time that any other polish last.

Can work if you know what you're doing

Just like any other crackle nail polish, time and the amount you use are key. This stuff dries REALLY quickly, so one must always take that into consideration. Furthermore, putting it on like regular nail polish isn't always a good idea. If you do individual lines up/down your nail, you might "run into" some of the crackle you just applied as you go for the second stroke, and this can sometimes lead to something getting moved or smudged. When used correctly, it can look really cool, but you just need to know what you're doing and, as odd as this may sound, you really need to hurry up when you do this.

Not a big fan.

I bought this when the crackle nail polish was really big, I didn't have the money for the OPI and decided I'd give this a try. I will say the one I bought (black) worked better than any of the other colors, but it was still kind of a struggle. You have to apply a REALLY thin coat for it to really crackle which is a pain.

I even ran out of black nail polish when I was getting towards the end of a manicure, and used a pretty fair coat of this instead and it worked just fine.

Go for OPI

I bought OPI and used a whole bottle of that crackle. I didn't want to spend as much as I spent the first time so I figured I'd try this stuff out. I hated it. It hardly even crackles. It does a little bit but it doesn't even look good. I would say splurge on OPI if you are getting a crackle polish.
