Coming soon: 17 Gold Shatter Nail Polish

They’re all at it, Barry M, OPI, China Glaze and now purse friendly 17 want us to shatter, crackle and smash our nails.

Granted, most of us over the age of 16 might want to give trendy nail art a wide berth, but the gold is very summery and less dramatic than the black ones on the market and with an estimated price tag of around £4, I’d say it’s worth a go. Although be careful not to be too heavy handed, in this picture taken from 17’s Facebook page, the product looks a little thicker than it’s pricier competitors.

Set for release later this month, have some fun creating weird and wonderful patterns.

LUST HAVE: China Glaze Crackle Nail Varnish in the UK

Don’t just paint your nails, CRACKLE them!

Give your nails an edgy yet fabulous look with China Glaze’s Crackle nail polish. Following in the footsteps of OPI’s Katy Perry Shatter collection, these amazing nail varnishes make nail art easy and accessible, what’s more they’re now available in the UK.

Now I know they’re not everyone’s cup of tea and it does look a little like the highlighter/varnish/Tip ex experiments my friends and I concocted when we were ten, but there’s no denying they’re fun, clever and pretty edgy.

China Glaze is known for providing high quality, trendy and innovative nail care products which are meant to help your nails look amazing without any damage. The Crackle Collection comes in 6 colours including broken hearted and crushed candy. Simply apply over any base colour and watch the cracks appear.

Available from The Beauty Partnership £9.96. I’ve got my order in.
