New China Glaze Crackle Glitters


SPARK YOUR SUMMER STYLE!
China Glaze® Introduces Four New Crackle Glitter Polishes for May 2012


Los Angeles, CA – (March 2012): Sparkle all summer long with China Glaze®’s new Crackle Glitters collection. Once again taking crackle technology to the next level, this third-generation polish pairs the edgy innovation of crackling nail lacquer with glamorous glitters. The China Glaze® Crackle Glitters features four shimmering shades including:

· Luminous Lavender: Luscious light purple
· Jade-d: Radiant bright green
· Glam-More: Bold fuchsia
· Gleam Me Up: Bright sky blue

Create glamorously different looks with just one sweep of China Glaze® Crackle Glitters. Layer over different base colors to create bold styles. Use a lighter coat to create a fine crackle, a thicker coat for a deep shatter effect. Brush sideways or on an angle to create different looks. As versatile and edgy as China Glaze®’s biggest celebrity fans (Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Nicole Ritchie and Kelly Osbourne, to name a few), China Glaze® Crackle Glitters add a spark(le) to one of the hottest nail art trends!

The China Glaze® Crackle Glitters collection will be available as open stock colors and four-piece counter display. Individual polishes retail for $9 MSRP and will be available at fine salons and beauty supply stores nationwide in May 2012.

I have another giveaway open! Only a few hours left to submit entries for my First Nail Polish Giveaway for Followers! Submit your entries now!

Nail Look: China Glaze Crackle Polish in Fault Line Over OPI Houston We Have a Purple











Here's another one of my favorites from the OPI Texas collection. Houston We Have a Purple is an extremely forced and corny name, but I like the color a lot. I have also mentioned in my previous OPI Texas entry that six of the shades are in the new "sorbet" formula- sort of like a jelly but fluffier, creamier, more "airy" because it doesn't settle too low on the nailbed. It's super sheer but very easy to apply.

I applied one of my new China Glaze Crackle polishes over it, Fault Line, a bright orchid purple.











Crackle is the new fad for 2011- the equivalent of the 2009 matte polish. I like Crackle/Shatter a lot better than mattes, honestly.

What do you think? Is Crackle a yay or a nay?
