I bought these for about 13 euro today in Boots.I find that they all dry really quickly which is always a plus and the green only needed one coat for good coverage and the orange two coats.Though I gave them both 3 because it took little or no time to paint them.

It was my first time using crackle polishes and so far I love them.I'm not mad on the black and green combination as I think its quite dull and dreary but I'm dying to try it with a neon pink or with a red to see if it looks better.The white is definitely my favourite .

I think they look quiet Halloween-y or patriotic but that works today I suppose due to the match.

Sorry about the dodgy paint job and lack of nails.I don't usually wear nail varnish because I have to take it off for work but I'm trying to give them a go now.

I absolutely love Forget-Me-Not. It was one of my first Catrice Nail Varnishes. So pretty and the sliver shimmer is just wow!

Honerbright, where did you get the nail plates if you don't mind me asking?

Sauvignon82, thanks a million - I need a LOT of nail art practice, but sure practice makes perfect

I have a few 17 polishes that I got ages ago and never really use cos they chip so easily. I decided to put on a layer of a similar colour first and then just one coat of the 'bad' polishes to see if it lasted any better....and it has!

First I tried Rimmel Euphoria over Barry M mushroom





Usually it takes even 3 coats of the Rimmel to show up nicely but I just used one coat of the barry m and one of the rimmel on top followed by a top coat. You get the colour of the rimmel but the staying power of the barry m. Lasted about 5 days like that.

Tried the same thing with a red 17 polish over rimmels coral, also still going strong 4 days later.
