I'm sure you guys have heard of OPI's Black Shatter polish. It's the awesome new lacquer that gives nails a cracked or shatter effect. You just paint your nails as usual, layer the Black Shatter over them and before you know it, you have a fun, funky look.Since the polish is so popular, it's been crazy trying to find a bottle anywhere. However, I came across an entire rack of OPI Black Shatter while at Duane Reade {i went there for toilet paper and let with beauty products}. At $8.50, it's more than your typical drugstore polishes, but I had to try it and I'm glad I did. What's great is you can use any color you want underneath it. I opted for Sinful Colors' 24/7.
