(Giveaway, Review & Swatches): China Glaze Crackle & American Apparel Nail Lacquers

Lets be serious, we all love chocolate, but who needs the extra carbs with spring right around the corner? And what we do need is a fresh new look from fingers to toes. Just like a little black dress is a necessity, so is nail accessorizing. And we don’t only mean that in the ring/accessories department.

A new form of art is etched nails. China Glaze has come out with a new line called Crackle; a layering process that gives each nail its own identity. How does this work?

1. A base nail lacquer is applied to nails and left to completely dry.

2. Apply a coat of Crackle Glaze and let your nails dry for 3-5 minutes.

3. To secure the design, seal with a top coat.

Once the Crackle Glaze is applied to the first layer of base nail polish, you can watch magic before your eyes. The polish begins to shatter almost instantly, but I highly recommend wait the full five minutes to achieve the desired look. This is magic at its finest…and nail lacquer like you’ve never seen before. We like to think of it as a Jackson Pollock painting for nails.

A bouquet of colors is the best way to describe Rouge and Rose; polishes from American Apparel Nail Lacquer collection.

Feminine blush tones really set the mood for spring. One coat is all you need; it smoothes effortlessly coating the whole nail with one coat. This makes it perfect for a quick at home mani/medi before a date.

    I like my nails medium length. The shape has to be square and the polish color varies on my mood that day!

    I Love TO WATER MARBLE MY NAILS ! It’s really fun and the results turn out great ! It does take a bit of time, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll really like it !!

    I like to do everything to my nails, from nail art, to just plain polish or french tip. I always try to grow out my nails to medium length, so I can do more with them.
