Good evening all!
I know crackle polishes just became a "thing" again just last year, but doesn't wearing a crackle feel old school now? Nail trends come and go crazy fast don't they? Nails Inc. recently sent me one of their new Special Effects Crackle polishes to try along with a lovely White creme so I paired them for an eye catching look.
As you can see Kings Cross breaks up great and smooth. I hate when crackles get "lumpy" and you end up needing 17 coats of top coat to smooth it out. Kings Cross gets an shiny squishy texture once top coated and it looks awesome. The only downside is that I don't know how many colors this crackle would look good over since it's slightly sheer.
Here is my base color Nails Inc Floral Street. The name threw me off lol :D.
If you like shatters but have had issues with formulas I suggest checking these crackles by Nails Inc. Out. Nails Inc. polishes are available at Sephora.
Thoughts on neon shatter? I kinda love it.

I'm not a fan of crackles but I'm adoring this look! It looks gorgeous xx
ReplyDeleteDeja vu (

I think its being in a neon Orange made it a little different too.
ReplyDeleteI know lool! She posted it as I was wearing it :D! And Floral St is the bomb!
ReplyDeleteIts a really cute look. I think everyone got tired of the crack trend because of how over the top it went in such a short time. Now the gems are standing out, and people can decided wether they actually like the look for what it is, or pass on it with out worring that the polish they want will be sold out forever. Personally I (still!) like crackle/shatter/whatever but in small doses. This look plays on the orange trend too and I think its very cute!
ReplyDeletecrackle does feel old school now! lol. still love many of them though.. this is adorable.
ReplyDeleteNail twins! Looks great on you too! I agree about Floral Street as well, it's my new go-to white...the formula is great!
ReplyDeleteLove the look of the bold orange crackle over the white! Will definitely be checking these out
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore this look! I love that jelly crackle. I'm looking forward to seeing what other colors you end up using this with.
ReplyDeleteJelly crackles are awesome :) Love that orange! I wonder what it'd look like with some glitter underneath...
ReplyDeleteWow, this is truly, truly innovative-a jelly crackle, who woulda thunk it. I actually want this now, I'm soo tired of my glumpy Shatter!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I've been itching for a crackle in every color.
ReplyDeleteaww.. so cute!
ReplyDeletePretty! It looks like a creamsicle!
ReplyDeleteoOOOOOoooh snap, a neon orange crackle!? I'm in. :D
ReplyDeleteI love this!!!
ReplyDeletethis looks really great! I love it and I don't like crackles (they look too lumpy). But not this one. Great job on the combo, looks like an orangesicle.
ReplyDeleteI feel like crackle polishes are last year too. They just got run over by the new trends - most lately 'spotted effect'. But the idea of a neon creckle is awesome, it looks so fun for summer!
