Nails, Nails, Nails!

Nail polish has become really popular.  It seems a lot of makeup companies are into making their own brand.  Along with many colours there are also textures like magnetic, crackle, 3D, nail art design stickers etc.  It seems every colour is trendy now so you can't lose.
There are also many tutorials on you tube, one of my favourite is cutepolish.
If you follow me on instagram you will see I try to update my nail colour every week.  I tend to like darker colours for fall and winter and then go back to lights and brights in the summer.  Another trend I like is painting one or two nails a different colour/shade or applying nail art/decals.  My favourite are the sally hansen salon effects.  I usually do this to my ring finger.

OPI Black Shatter - My new favorite nail polish and review...

If you know me you know that I LOVE nail polish and getting my nails painted every Friday at lunch.

I found this nail polish on a website and went on a search to find it.  Took me a couple weeks because it was sold out everywhere, but I finally put my name on a waiting list.  (Yes I am weird, but I LOVE new colours and trends in nail polish). They emailed me and I went right after work to get it. 

So to use this you need a base coat of colour, preferably an opaque light shade (I used silver), wait for it to dry and apply one coat of the black shatter.  Almost instantly the black breaks up (shatters) to reveal the colour underneath.  Every finger is a different pattern. If you want, wait until fully dry and add a clear top coat.
Price: $9.95 - $17.95 CDN (depending how greedy the store is)

For this review I give the OPI Black Shatter nail polish 4.5 out of 5 ;)
