Valentine's Day Crackle
I've been wanting to do a Valentine's Day crackle manicure, and today was really my last opportunity. I'm leaving to study abroad in Vienna tomorrow, and, unfortunately, I will not be able to bring the majority of my nail polish collection with me. :'( But, I'm looking forward to buying plenty while I'm there. ;) I've already scouted out some German/Austrian brands to be on the lookout for. Anyway, I'm leaving my crackle polishes here, so I had to get one last crackle in.
I wanted to use a combo of all six nail polishes pictured below, so I started with Pure Ice - Super Star on my pinky, Pure Ice - Flirt Alert on my ring and pointer fingers, and Sally Hansen InstaDri - Rapid Red on my middle finger and thumb. Once those were dry, I covered my pinky with Pure Ice Crackle - Show Stopper, my ring finger and thumb with Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat - Snow Blast, and my pointer and middle fingers with Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat - Fractured Foil.

Chinese New Year
Happy Belated Chinese New Year! I know these are a little late, but I had seen a handful of nail bloggers with this Chinese New Year manicure, and then I saw this set on sale at Walmart today for $5 so I had to buy it.
I started with two coats of the gold base. It's just called Pure Ice - 313CP. After the gold was dry, I applied one coat of the crackle, which is called Pure Ice Crackle - Show Stopper.

White Crackle Polish
I decided today to just mess around with some white crackle polish I purchased a few weeks ago. I applied one coat of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - The Real Teal. Then, I just painted some random lines of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Pacific Blue. I painted over these with a thin coat of Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat - Snow Blast. I wish it had crackled more, but then again maybe it would have if I had let the polish underneath dry completely like you are supposed to.
