Hello Ladies!
First of all I have to say that Fall officially starts in a matter of days and I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself! I love everything about Fall. It starts to cool down outside and it's my favorite season for fashion!
I was pretty intrigued when I found out about this seasons new nail trend the "crackle" effect. When I went to Target to pick up this crackle polish I came across the four new Fall colors from essie... I had to get one too, right? Right!
This is my first coat with just the essie "Carry On" deep burgundy. This is a beautiful color and can be worn on its own. Currently its the polish I have on my toes.
Next I applied the crackle polish. I'm using Salley Hansen crackle silver overcoat. After playing with this polish a few times I've found that the crackle effect works much better if you apply one thick coat covering your entire nail. Then while it dries it will do the crackling effect on its own. If I apply a thin layer in a few strokes it doesn't behave like I want. Oh! One other thing... When I bought this I figured the crackle would be the secondary color but that's not the case. Whatever you apply as your first color will only be the accent or secondary color so make sure you invest in a crackle polish color that you will wear more often.
This is a picture of me failing to show all my nail polish. Hahaha
Let's try only two polishes this time... There, that works much better! The other two polishes were just my top (sally hansen) and base (O.P.I.) coats.
My two colors. 1) essie new fall color call carry on. 2) Sally Hansen's silver Crackle overcoat
