Shattered...

Want a new trendy look for those nails-torn, tattered let’s talk OPI Shatter. Shatter first came out with OPI’s Katy Perry Collection in black and then they rolled out Silver Shatter in their Pirates of the Caribbean collection. Now OPI is adding even more colors to its Shatter collection promised to be available in July (you can already find the new colors on amazon.com) the new colors include Red, White, Blue, Navy and Turquoise. OPI promises a fantastic shattered look in 3 easy steps

1.       Apply base coat and two coats of your favorite OPI polish and let it dry completely.

2.       Apply one quick coat of the OPI Shatter and then wait and watch the magic happen.

3.       Finish with OPI top coat for a high gloss shine

So let’s put it to the test I started with a base coat then painted on two coats of OPI’s need sunglasses from the bright collection (yellow), and then I applied one quick coat of OPI’s Black Shatter. The Shatter dries very quickly so I was able to immediately finish the nail with OPI’s top coat. So with my first try I used a thin quick coat of the Shatter and it really did nothing but streak my nail, not the shattered effect that I was expecting. So I tried nail number two with a thicker coat and I have the shattered look as promised.

Some tips- use a thicker coat to get the shattered effect, a thin coat will leave you streaked and starting over. Do not overlap the coats you are applying or you will not get the shattered look. All in all I think this is a fun product for some funky looking nail and can’t wait to use the red, white and blue for Fourth of July.
