OPI Navy, Turquoise, and Blue Shatter Topcoats

OPI has had mega success with the shatter trend that we've seen all over the country and abroad. This time they have brought us some new colors, this time in hues of blue.

Navy Shatter is a winner in my book, dark but still blue toned and beautiful layered on top of a pretty glitter like this one, Sakura Glow by Color Club. I love how you can see the glitter peek through.
Turquoise Shatter is shimmery and cracks less than Navy or Black Shatters but still does the job. It's lovely and very head turning. Here I've put it over Color Club's Strawberry Sherbet. I also did a mani for my sister Megan over OPI Mermaid's Tears which turned out rather lovely.
Blue Shatter is also shimmery and cracks a little less than Navy and a little more than Turquoise. The shimmer must do something to the formula eh? I like this but it's not my favorite of the shatters. I think I like the crème formula of the shatters the best. Here I've shown it over China Glaze How About a Tumble.
What do you think about these new sky tinted shatters?

  6. The navy is a nice polish and crackles effectively but I'm not keen on the others.

  8. They're beautiful swatches! The navy is my absolute favourite (I think you're right about the shimmer perhaps affecting the formula?) and I really love what you paired it with! :)

  10. I really love the Navy combo you did! You know what though, I am starting to resent OPI Shatter and its elusiveness! :) I cannot find it anywhere. I have black, but I really want to try others! I am a Nail Tech, and I can't even find it at my beauty supply/OPI retailer! They had the entire Pirates of the Carribean collection out the first day with NO silver shatter! Waaah... BOO hiss. Ok, I'm done with my rant :) Your nails look lovely as always!

  23. these look great! I especially love how you paired navy shatter. On lots of swatches I've seen the combinations uses just make it look black.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I love the combination of first photos of the two polishes but the others... it feels like the shatters are too much :/

  26. Love that navy shatter. So many interesting shades of shatter. Kae of thehungryasian.com sent me a bottle of Blue Shatter. I ordered some of her frankens and she sent me a gift! She didn't realize I was moaning and groaning about not finding any shatter polishes. She didn't know I wanted it. I'm also glad to know that the Blue Shatter didn't crack as easy. I thought it was me.

  30. I want all 3 shatters and I dig the Color Clubs you used for the first two. Yeah I want them a lot, lol.

  31. Finally a shatter I REALLY like - the Navy one that is! I have not liked any of them and given any away I kept buying, trying to find it to work and look right on me. I will get the navy just now when I had given up thinking of getting anymore in any brand at all.

  32. I really don't love any of them. :S Yes, the shimmer must affect its crackling power, because remember ChG Fault Line? That sucker has shimmer and hardly crackles.

    ReplyDelete
  33. these are so beautiful. I love the navy and turquoise best. OPI is kinda hard to find in my area so I only have the black and white crackle polishes by china glaze, but i love them :)
