    This is a very late review. I bought this a long time ago. I've used it maybe 3 times. ( I hate waiting for nail polish to dry since this involves layering.) It has dried up a bit and clumped in the bottle. I still used it, not as great of an effect since it was clumpy. It looked streaky due to the dry formula. Use the bottle quickly. Overall, the look is cool but using a clear top coat is a must otherwise the black color looks very dull.

    The Shatter line is fun and gives you a different look. Black works great over so many different colours. Though I do find that after about 4-5 uses, it does dry and clump up in the bottle. I actually found that the other colours in Shatter work better than black. Not sure if it's a different formula or not. Compared to China Glaze's Crackle line (same concept) OPI does seem to have a better application. The "shatter" seems to apply more evenly so that the bottom colour comes through... mind you this is before it started to dry out in the bottle.

    I got the shatter in white so that i could do my nails in my school colors, white and blue, and i found it worked really well! I was very pleased with the result! the only problem i had with this product is that my sister, who has more rounded nails, did not have a good turn out with hers. they looked more liked zebra then shatter. It looked cool, but its not what we wanted.

    I was one of those people lining up for Shatter when it first arrived. In fact, I bought two bottles!

    The results are great, and give you an edgy look without very much effort.

    My only complaint is that it dries and clumps in the bottle very quickly (I store all of my nailpolish properly). One of my bottles actually completely dried up after 6 weeks!

    This is not a long-term investment, but it definitely has great results.

    I love the look of black shatter. So far I have used it over gold, blue, red and green all with nice results. I found using one coat gives you the best result as with two it doesn't crack as much or at all. It also looks too thick with one coat. I receive compliments on this product, and the price was fair. I believe I paid around $8.00 for this nail polish, and will wait for a sale before purchasing it again. I also recommend only buying it from salons, only because retail stores never seem to have the same consistency.

    I bought the shatter in both navy and tourquoise. The navy i LOVE! i put it over a bright fushia and it was awesome. I had to do it twice though. the tips i have is put a coat of clear on the color, between the shatter coat. when you put the shatter on you need a decent amount on your brush but not too much. i try and wipe jsut one side of the brush on the bottle. put it on quick.
    now, the tourquoise, Maybe because it has shimmer in it, but i jsut cant get it to work. i try lots of color, little color, and it doesnt seem to shatter as well.
    so my recommendation: buy it if it is a non shimmer shade.
