Maybe it should be called line because there was definitely no crackle! I normally use OPI Shatter but I saw Sally Hansen at Walgreen and since I normally use a lot of Sally Hansen products (The Sally Hansen HD nail polish is awesome!) I decided to try their crackle. Big mistake! I've tried it with multiple Sally Hansen nail polishes and Revlon polishes, let each coat dry for 30 minutes, tried thin coats and thick coats and it just doesn't work! Maybe I'm bias because OPI works so great but this crackle is definitely worth purchasing! Maybe it's different in a different color but silver was awful!

I liked this product a lot when I first purchased it. I used it over dark nail polishes (deep red, blue, purple) and it always looked pretty cool. The crackles were a nice size and the polish wasn't too thick or too thin. You do have to apply it quickly, and each nail only gets one coat or else it will ruin the crackle effect. I also found this polish to be very hard when dry and thus long-lasting. Use a top coat to make the polish smooth, otherwise you can feel the cracks.
After owning this polish for about 6 months, however, I have noticed it has become quick thick and hard to use. Now it just globs onto my nails and hardly cracks at all. It's so thick that I can no longer mix it in the bottle! It was a nice product while it lasted, but I probably will not purchase it again.
Best Deals for Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat Nail Polish, Fractured Foil, 0.4
This stuff didn't look like it crackled on every nail. About 50% of my nails looked like they had the pattern but the rest just looked like I put silver glittery nail polish on them. Also this stuff is VERY silver. If you're looking to have junior high girl nails then you might like the color but I didn't. It's not at all what it was like on the cap. I wouldn't recommend this product. It doesn't work like they advertise it does.
Honest reviews on Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat Nail Polish, Fractured Foil, 0.4
I have been looking all over my small town for this polish and finally found it over the weekend at Walgreens for $6.99. I am in love with the effect! I painted my nails a bright pink and let it dry for 15 20 minutes. I then went over with the silver crackle and the crackle effect is beautiful! It is so easy to use! My sister was so impressed that she asked me immediately to do her nails and they turned out great also. I did notice that the thicker coat provides more of the pictured crackle effect. I used a thinner coat on my nails and wound up with a little crackle, but more of a shimmery top coat with small cracks. I used a thicker coat on my sister's nails and wound up with perfect crackle. You must make sure your base coat color is completely dry before you try to put the Crackle coat on or it will take the base coat color off completely. Also, don't forget to finish with a clear top coat when the Crackle is dry.

You have to do a single coat. If you rebrush the same area at all it will fill in the area that is supposed to look cracked. My left hand looked streaky til I realized what I was doing and then my right came out perfect.
