Kelier blue crackle polish

Prije par dana stigao mi je paketić od Jessice s Born Pretty Store koja me zamolila da recenziram par stvarčica, između ostalog i... dva crackle lakića! ;;) Mislim da me uhvatila lagana crackle-manija :D. Tek sam ih jučer podigla na pošti a već ih mažem preko svega na što naiđem. Nakon nekoliko swatcheva na celofanu preko nekoliko boja, ova kombinacija mi se najviše svidjela. Za podlogu sam koristila srebrni CND Silver chrome. Na jedan sloj još mokrog srebrnog laka nanijela sam jedan sloj crackle laka - tanki sloj na svim noktima osim na srednjaku gdje je malo deblji. Izgleda da što je tanji sloj ima više pukotina a što je deblji, pukotine su šire (ili se to možda čini jer je i plava tamnija pa je veći kontrast prema srebrnoj podlozi). Nakon što lak ispuca i malo se osuši, dodaje se nadlak. Ne preporučujem brzosušeće, bolje je nanijeti neki za sjaj. Ja sam se zeznula i stavila Seche vite - naravno, za 10 minuta Seche je uspio stisnuti sve pukotine :P (vidi sliku dolje). Kako vam se čini ovaj crackle? I koji vam je tip crackle efekta ljepši - ovaj ili OPI/Barry M?
Born Pretty Store drži, osim lakova, raznorazne nail art stvarčice. Poslali su mi i jedan image plate i još par lakića, koje ću isprobati uskoro.Cracking lakova imaju u nekoliko boja: crna, ljubičasta, plava, zelena, crvena (više hot-pink) i žuta, dođu 4.5$ a do 31.1. uz kupon na stranici daju 10% popusta.

A few days ago I received a package from Jessica of Born Pretty Store . She asked me to review some of their products, including... two crackle polishes! ;;) I think a have a slight case of crackle-mania :D. I just picked these up from the post office yesterday and I've been applying them over everything I can get my hands on. I swatched various combos on foil and liked this one the best. For the base color I used one layer of CND Silver chrome. While the base polish was still wet, I applied one coat of crackle - all were thin coats, except the middle where I used a thicker coat. It seems that the thinner the coat is - the more crackles you get and the thicker it is - the cracks seem wider (this may also be because the contrast between the colors is more pronounced with the thicker coat). After the cracking is done and it dries a bit, I applied a top coat. I don't recommend quick-drying top coats, I would go with a thick coat (or two thin coats) of a glossy TC. I made a mistake and used Seche Vite and in 10 minutes it managed to shrink almost all cracks back together :P (see picture below). What do you think of this crackle? Which do you like better - this or the OPI/Barry M type of crackle?

Born Pretty Store holds various nail art goodies. I also received an image plate and some more polishes, I'll be trying soon. Cracking polishes come in several colors: black, purple, blue, green, red (more hot-pink) and yellow, they are 4.5$ and there's a 10% discount till 31.1. with a coupon on their site.

I sa slojem Seche Vite - shrinkano. :D
And with a coat of Seche Vite - shrinked. :D
