China Glaze Crackle Nail Polish Lightning Bolt
Hello Everyone! I wanted to share with you cuties my second attempt at applying crackle nail polish. You can see this article on my first application of China Glaze Crackle Nail Polish – Black Mesh and also see the tips on the right way to apply crackle nail polish.
Today, I am showing you China Glaze Crackle Nail Polish in the white colour Lightning Bolt. As mentioned in my earlier article, I got these crackle nail polishes as a set of 6 colours from an online shopping site.
First, I applied my base coat – Sally Hansen Double Duty Strengthening Base and Top Coat, followed by the base colour for the white crackle nail polish – Bourjois Ultra Shine So Laque No. 31 Bleu Violet, price Rs. 350. This is a deep violet creamy nail colour.
This is how it looked after application of 2 coats:
After giving a good gap of at least 6 hours, I applied one coat of the white crackle nail polish.
I found that the best way to get your crackle nail polish to look downright outstanding is to use a completely opposite contrasting colour as your base nail paint. Also, once your crackle coat has dried completely, use a top coat to ensure longer wear and more attractiveness, as crackle nail polishes dry to a matte finish.
Pros of China Glaze Crackle Nail Polish – Lightning Bolt:
• You can do a whole variety of mix and match with Lightning Bolt and it looks different each time on top of different colours.
• Gives a nail-art effect on nails within a matter of seconds.
• Saves a lot of time yet looks like you have spent a lot of time and trouble doing nail art!
• Each nail’s crackle effect is different and unique.
•Extremely eye-catching.
• Good quantity provided – a whopping 12 ml.
• Going to last me a very long time.
Cons of China Glaze Crackle Nail Polish – Lightning Bolt:
• As far as I know, this brand is not available in India.
• The crackle effect is a matter of personal choice altogether.
Rating:
5 on 5.
Verdict:
A great choice if you like crackle nail polish, like experimenting with colours, and want an out-of-the-ordinary look on your nails. (I now have my eyes on China Glaze OMG Holographic range of colours!!!)
Have a great week everyone!

I hope you find some crackle nail paints soon, Pragnyadeepta. As of now, I guess only Colorbar has introduced a few in the Indian market. 🙂
Yup. It’s quite a bummer,actually. :(( I just hope our Indian brands catch up with the crackle trend soon. :waiting:
