Katy Perry Shatter Nails...I Love You!

Happy Wednesday Fabulous Readers!

Jessica here and I am so excited about nail design week and being able to share with you my review on the awesomeness of the cracked/shattered nail look.                


Specifically I tried out the O.P.I Katy Perry Collection, Black Shatter. I LOVE the look of this! It is the first time I experimented with the cracked/shattered nail polish and I wasn't sure how it worked...still don't really know how it works, but I think it looks FABULOUS! It actually comes out looking like a zebra or leopard print over the nail color you use as the base color.

You know I like my products to work with little to no effort and let me tell you, it looks like I spent time on my nails when it only takes a few minutes to paint on and it dried SUPER fast. That being said I do have some tips and suggestions for you to do if you want to try this.

TIP: First you can choose any color you want as the base color, but I recommend picking a lighter color than what your shatter is or if you have a light shatter (silver) picking a dark color for the base might look best. Since I tried the black shatter I used a baby pink color as the base. Once you have painted your nails a color and let them dry you are ready to apply the shatter.

TIP: The shatter dries so fast, so you want to make sure you have an ample amount of polish on the brush before you apply. It's always better in this case to have more than less, because when you have less and have to "double dip" it's not as nice looking and you end up layer / over lapping too much.

This actually lasted a long time when used correctly...I had experimented and tried putting the polish on by itself and it basically was just like a matte black nail polish and it chipped off easy...very strange considering when applied with nail color it shatters and last forever....but anyway I get curious :)

This is for sure my go-to nail design polish and I will use this up fast for sure! I love the look of it and I don't think I could ever get bored or tired of looking at it. Too cool, and I have so many options to change the look by just changing the nail base color.  I loved this SO much I have to show you all a demo of it working before your eyes! So this Friday I will work on a YouTube video dedicated to showing you how amazing this is and you can see for yourself! I will use a bunch of different colors so you can see the different looks...

Until then, Keep on Being Beautiful You!

PS - Katy Perry is just plain cool, so you can only expect products with her name attached to them to have a "girls rule, be your own person" type of strong style!
