NOTD #7: Crackle French Manicure

I've had this idea in my mind for a while and it has finally come to fruition. The crackle french manicure. Well, sort of.

I'm not sure if this would really be considered a french manicure, but it's almost the same idea.

A base coat is a must for this because you need something to put the white crackle on (so that it will crackle properly). Then take a a light, sheer pink color to layer over the crackle. Voila!



I used the Nicole by OPI texture coat and it's quite nice. Crackles nicely. The pink that I used was Essie Sugar Daddy. Probably one of my favourite french manicure colours. I also like Essie Mademoiselle but Sugar Daddy is more pink.

Overall:

Colour: ♥♥♥♥
Application: ♥♥♥♥♥
Lasting Power: ♥♥♥♥

What do you think? What are some of your favourite crackle combinations?

  4. @Amanda Rose Yes, I was really happy with how this polish works! It crackles nicely, especially when you do different angles instead of the length of the nail :).

  6. I love gold and silver crackle over black. I've been seeing a lot of gold crackle over turquoise which looks really cool so I'll have to give that a try, but I like your mani too!
