China Glaze Crushed Candy Crackle

Hello hello,

  Today I have another crackle for you guys. This is the very pretty Crushed Candy from China Glaze's Crackle Collection.
  For this mani I layered Crushed Candy over Zoya Dove. I applied the crackle polish in a zig- zag motion to create a cool pattern on the nail. I thought there would be more contrast between these two colors and I know it's not coming across very well in my pictures but this combo is actually really pretty and subtle. The formula on this one is really easy to work with and it crackles really well. I don't know why but I love my shattered manis matted so much more than glossy. 

Thanks for stopping by :)
