Burst Crackle Polishes From Victoria Nail Supply


As far as color comparisons, Aqua Marine is quite close to China Glaze Crushed Candy. Pretty-In-Pink is similar to China Glaze Broken Hearted, but the Burst brand is more fuchsia than pink, with richer pigmentation. Obviously, Blizzard and China Glaze Lightning Bolt are both straight white shades. The other three Burst shades I got are all orange/coral tones, which I don't have anything similar to. I will mention that Hot Spot (when applied thinner!) is more similar to Orange Delight than they appear to be in the bottle next to each other, as you can see above.
Of the Crackle polishes that I have (old Cover Girl, OPI Black Shatter, China Glaze Crackle Glaze), the Burst polishes have the best and easiest formula to work with. The bottle is nice and heavy--they remind me of the Del Sol bottles--and the brushes are well-made. The formula is on the thin side but very pigmented, and they crack very quickly. The fuchsia shade and the 3 orange/coral shades are very bright and almost neon.
I keep thinking I don't need more crackles, but when I saw these I was curious about them, so...you know how it goes! I'm sure I'll probably pick up a couple of the Sally Hansen ones too when they come out. Are you cracked out yet or are you still enjoying this trend?
not impressed with any crackle/shatter. im old school that is like chipped polish!!
ReplyDeleteI have one black crackle that I eventually "cracked" and bought after ignoring the trend for so long. It's okay, but I don't feel the urge to layer it over every mani. That's when I know it's true love.
ReplyDeleteI am liking my China Glaze Crushed Candy crackle, however,Sunflower, looks like a pretty color crackle to me.Thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteI have the China Glaze Crackles and the OPI Shatters.....liking the OPI one wayyyy better so far. This might be an interesting prospect.
ReplyDeleteI still love this look! Orange Delight looks pretty!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't Victoria Nail Supply only sell to licensed professionals? Is there a way around that? I've seen a lot of bloggers talk about shopping there, and I know they're not nail techs. I'd love to know how to order from them.
ReplyDeleteNEVER enough crack(le) LOL!!!
