Pure Ice Crackle & Ice Duo: Strike A Pose

Hi guys! Hope everyone had an awesome weekend!

Today I have one of the Pure Ice Crackle duos to share with you. I know, I know..most everyone is so over Crackle. And for the most part, I am as well. But...I never really used it much so on occasion when I want something quick, easy, and still eye catching, I'll pull out a crackle. The Pure Ice Duos are actually pretty interesting. I'm drawn to crackles with eye catching color, and these little duos have just that.

This particular duo is a Silver Glitter polish (It's actually Pure Ice Beware) matched with a striking shimmery bright blue crackle. I like the look of glitter under crackle, so this was naturally the first of the 3 duos I have that I tried out.  Here, have a look!
































Oops! I managed to whack my ring finger against the table right as I finished this mani! Good thing about crackle is that that little ding was only noticeable in pictures. :)

I love the color combination of this silver glitter with the bright blue crackle. This is one of the few crackles that I have worn that didn't glop up on me.  The crackle dried very quickly though, so you do have to work fast. I used a thicker coat on this swatch since I like larger cracks and really wanted to show off the color of this crackle. I tried a thin coat on my thumb, and it led to smaller, spidery cracks. Still looked great, but the color wasn't as vivid. I actually liked the Pure Ice crackle much better than the Sally Hansens, which glop up quickly and tend to be very thick. And for the price ( I think these were around $2.99 at Wal Mart), these little duos are certainly worth a wear.  I picked up the Gold/Red combo and the White/Purple combo as well. After wearing this one, I'm actually looking forward to trying out the other 2.

Happy Monday! I hope your day is less crazy than mine is slated to be!

Happy polishing!
