So I wanted to really try out my black crackle nail polish, from OPI [the god of nail polish]. Instead of doing one color beneath the black I used three colors so I could achieve a gradient effect. I did a different color gradient on each nail, of course you can stick with one color scheme on all your nails and be normal; but normal is overrated.
So here are step by step photos of all my nails. There are a bunch of naked nails; don't say I didn't warn you.
Final effect:
Step by step:
Forever 21 Scented Nail Polish- Passion Fruit
Sally Hansen- No hard Feelings
Wet n Wild- French White Creme
OPI- Black Shatter
Unless you want to keep the matte finish of the crackle, I would definitely recommend applying a top coat since it intensifies the colors underneath.
Enjoy!
