Crackle Glaze Lightning Bolt over Depend 225 = fail

Hey darlings! How are you doing? I'm in the middle of my preparations for today's night out, so I'm in a hurry a bit. But I promised you this combination yesterday and here it is. Why fail? Because I didn't let Depend 225 dry completely and Lightning Bolt cracked with ugly weird cracks and kinda dragged Depend and made it look wrinkly. I do like the colour combination tho so I'll try it again sometimes.




Yes, three pictures only, you probably noticed already I do that when I don't like my mani, don't wish to trouble your eyes more than necessary. ;) I hate the cracks on this one. Index has the coat too thin, middle is just one giant crack down the middle, ring finger is ... well, look at it, where do I begin, and pinky is just plain weird. So moral to this story is, put crackle on dry polish only! Other info - I've already talked about Depend 225, it's two to three coats, one coat of Crackle Glaze Lightning Bolt on top, no TC, because I removed it right away. 

Like I said, I like the colour combination, but I hate the cracks on this one. Sorry about the failed manicure, I know it's not pretty, but I wanted to show you anyway. :) What do you think about it? You can tell me, I hate it too. ;)

Thanks for reading, have a great Saturday night!

    I don't hate it but the China Glaze white crackle seems a bit thick. I prefer my cheapo UK option W7. It's much thinner and gives a delicate feel. I'm not a big fan of white polish anyway though....

    Thinner is your friend with the white crackle. I ended up adding like 20 drops to get it right. Try a bit before you use it again - it may crack better.

    Škoda, da ti ni lepo razpokalo, ker kombinacija je super.

    Yikes! I have heard with the CG crackles that they do tend to be thick and crackle kind of weird and linear.... kind of a cool effect if you do your brush strokes in a zig-zag motion though!

    Meni se beli crackli, od kateregakoli proizvajalca, zdijo kot edigs na nohtih. :P Depend 225 je pa fajn odtenek - jaz sem od spomladanske kolekcije preizkusila samo 221 in pri tem sta tako formula in nanos super. Tale zelena zobna pasta me pa se caka.

    Jaz se strinjam z Martino - tudi meni bel lak izgleda kot razlit edigs, in pri craclu se toliko bolj. Pri tebi izgleda zelo debela plast.
    Drugace sem pa jaz svojega cracla uporabila tudi, ko se lak spodaj se ni pousil, pa je bilo v redu (slabse kot pri posusenem, samo ne pa spet tako slabo). Tako da je mogoce bolj lak kot tehnika?

    Thank you all for your comments! I'd blame it on the Crackle, but the first time I used it, it went like a charm, with the blue Depend. So right now I'm blaming the semi dry polish as a base. If it cracks again so badly, I'll use thinner, thank you for the adivice, ladies! And yes, I love the color combo too, so I must try it again.

    kaneli & Aelfsciene: Isti stavek sem dobila od desca. ;) :D MEni je pa všeč :P
