Crackle Swatches - Nicole, Ulta, Milani, Sinful, Kleancolor

[MariAoki616]

thanku for your respond and yes iwas kinda dumb><

[vesniica]

:megusta:

[MariAoki616]

when u swatch do u have to pay or tell u my adress???because if im going to have to tell u my adress then the only way that im going to be able to is just tell u on utube and if people see my adress they can do ALOTOF DANGEROUSE THINGS!!!

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@MariAoki616 do you mean swap? I don't do it myself but of course the other person would need your address or how would you get anything? Most people conduct their swaps via email or private message though, not in public comments

[CaitlinHannah98]

Is it just normal polish underneath?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@CaitlinHannah98 yes =)

[shae206]

Lol i dont think i would be able too either :) i just did my first water marble about a month ago after seeing some of your videos and i have done it a few times since, they come out so beautiful :) glad i found your channel

[shae206]

Can u crackle over water marble! That might be cool :) love your videos!

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@shae206 it's on my request list but I usually can't bear to cover them up =)

[regi8986]

@simplelittlepleasuee.... Does crackle work on water marble??? If I does can u try???

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@regi8986 no, most of them dry too fast =)

[HayleyRosePantich]

my klean colour polish doesnt take that long for me maybe it was the colour or somehting

[gabrielcantu1]

do u have to buy the crackle nailpolish or not?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@gabrielcantu1 yes =) where else would they come from LOL?

[gabrielcantu1]

@SimpleLittlePleasues

thank you =)

[Fujimiya12]

I bought china glaze crackle tarnished gold. Either A) I SUCK or B) the base polishes suck (using kleancolor) I did noticed it cracked pretty nice on a LA Colors polish. It's called Radiation. LOVE how it looked. It also cracked good on some random cheapo one I bought somewhere. On an OPI it looks great.

any tips? maybe i should wait for it to completely dry lol I was excited so i rushed a little haha (first time i saw china glaze here in my country ;__ ; )

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@Fujimiya12 yes, the base color should be dry before you apply the crackle =)

[The47thBasement]

You used it in water marble?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@The47thBasement they dry too fast to marble with =)

[The47thBasement]

The silver over the blue is my favorite, it's so pretty!! Super wintery!! How do you think Crackle would work if

[kitteesPJs]

I love your vids. They're always very informative and so well made. I appreciate all the work you put into them (I know it's a lot). Thank you.

Before I saw your reviews I tried the SH gold, silver, and white and they turned me off the crackle phenomena (they should be called 'Crapples'). Then I tried a couple of cheapie Pure Ice formulas and they worked MUCH better than the Sally Hansens. I'd love to hear what you think of the Pure Ice Crackles compared to the more expensive brands.

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@kitteesPJs I've had a lot of people recommend a pure ice ones, but I haven't found them around me yet =)

[emzieecali]

CHINA GLAZE CRACKLE PAINT NEW COLOR I ENJOY! - 981 CRUSHED CANDY....

Found at the Ulta Stores

[evacharmedandbuffy]

TIP: try ding the crackle in the other direction, it affects the way it crackles :)

[iluvstuff565]

the clean colors one is sooooo pretty!!!!

[costaseva16]

i absolutely love your videos! you are always so original and true and i much appreciate everything you show us! thank you for all the information!

[rose2hub2]

@SimpleLittlePleasues

I was wondering, where did you get the circle of nails? becuase i really need some? where could i find some and buy them?? thanks so much!

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@rose2hub2 I got mine online, they're also available at sallys =)

[904Jasmine]

I've done a purple crackle with gold and it looks pretty cool. Where did you get the Blue crackle from?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@904Jasmine I don't remember, but it probably says in the blog post or in the haul vid (linked in the info box) =)

[abbileigh1997]

What would happen if u did a water marble with crackle polish?probably a stupid question lol

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@abbileigh1997 they dry too fast to marble with =)

[Peaceprincessful]

Thank you for your advice

[iiZombiee]

You used Milani "Krackle" and what other brand?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@iiZombiee the brands are all listed in the title =)

[iiZombiee]

@SimpleLittlePleasues lmfao! That was my bad, girl. I'm soooo embarrassed. :-$

[MissSocietyKills]

"I apologize if my technique offends you." Haha! That made me laugh! <3

[hailstorm54]

I think the design is worth the wait on the last 2 swatches [:

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@gagan30512 I'll add that to my request list =)

[vickypub2010]

Sally hensen has a crakle polish top coat too

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@vickypub2010 I have a few of those - I showed them in one of my other vids =)

[sprinksonicecream]

@simplelittlepleseus y did it take so long for the 2 at the end to crackle?????

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@sprinksonicecream because they have a different formula =)

[isabel054]

Loved the blue and silver :)

[XxPureAddictionxX]

I dnt like how long the last 2 took 2 crack but really awesome video nd its kinda cool nd creepy how the last 2 cracked cuz it looked kinda like a snake skin =]

[2012amarie]

I love watching these types of videos!

watching the polish crack is kinda cool :)

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@purplecraziic not yet, since it's a UK brand, but they have several cool colors so I'm considering looking into websites that ship internationally =)

[DivaInDaMaking]

Lady thanks for the vid. And I went to the link for the song at the end of the vid and it pulled up tons of different songs..do you have the direct link? Its nice to put a vid behind it.

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@DivaInDaMaking I don't keep a direct link once I download the song but you should be able to find it if you search by artist =)

[mslorraine]

I said this in another video where you have featured Kleancolor's crackles, you have to apply it when your base color is still a little wet. Not completely wet but just before it's really dry. My cracks are usually a lot bigger than that. It still holds that interesting pattern but bigger and it usually cracks and dries faster for me. My only problem with that brand is that it chips off a lot. :(

My local beauty supply sells them for only $1.99.

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@mslorraine the size of the cracks also depend on how thick of a layer you use - I didn't have much luck applying it over tacky polish though =)

[Peaceprincessful]

Can you make water marbling with crackles?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@Peaceprincessful most of them dry way too fast =)

[crazycookingirl]

wow i don't think i'll be buying any kleancolor crackles...22 minutes to dry? what the heck!

[shahirubbie]

I purchased a Kleancolor crack polish some time ago, I love the way it cracks but I noticed that it flakes off even with a layer of topcoat D:

did this happen to anyone else?

[mslorraine]

@shahirubbie It happens to me too, I'm actually wearing it now and it has chipped off a bit. I just painted them the other day. D: I thought it was because I had a crappy top coat but I see I'm not alone. I also thought it was due to the brand because I've never tried any other crackles yet.

[MaciesMakeupInMinute]

oh and sally hansen crackle is terrible. i bought the white and within a week, it got thick, and it didnt crack very well at all when i first got it

[MaciesMakeupInMinute]

good thing the sinful color one works good, because i just bought that exact one today! i got it at riteaid

[MrsConarth]

Wow! The two last crackles took so long! But the final crackle was just SO beautiful!

[Mainzermelli]

Thanks for the swatches, again you saved my day =) And I adore how confident you were when you threw the nail polish across the table LOL, that was some brilliant reaction! <3

[mariettaaltenor]

where do you get the kleancolor and the kelier crackles from??

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@mariettaaltenor kleancolor is available in independent beauty supply stores - kelier I got online but the site I got it from no longer carries it so I'm not sure =)

[KAYLEENUHMANG]

A great silver crackle (that was less sparkly) is from LA girls. :)

[299justme]

thanks for the swatches!!!! what crackle brand and/or color do you prefer??? thanks :)

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@299justme with the exception of Kleancolor & Kelier, they're all really very similar - it really depends on which brand has the colors you want =)

[ItsShayTime]

what race are you? and where were you born? :3

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@ItsShayTime I'm mixed & I'm from Minnesota =)

[ItsShayTime]

@SimpleLittlePleasues wow really? thats amazing :D keep up the great videos :3 <33

[jadeisthenewblack890]

Yes, I have used Shatter over the Katy Perry Last Friday Night blue from OPI and the glitter did pose a problem with the Shatter.

[harajukubarbiie1231]

if you use normal nail polish instead of texture coat, would it look the same?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@harajukubarbiie1231 no, normal polish won't crackle =)

[KnG1Dakota]

i want some crackle nail polish

[Nicky89Springer]

You should be a spokes person for nail polish lol

[iiEATCOOKIES4ever]

where do u get that nail thing?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@iiEATCOOKIES4ever I got mine online, they're also available at Sallys =)

[iiEATCOOKIES4ever]

@SimpleLittlePleasues Thank you !! :)

[MissXoxoDancer24]

I love the way u say stash instead of collection <3

[laylay1027]

can you do a nail polish collection video?



[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@laylay1027 there are some pics on my blog =) I don’t know when I’ll get to a vid but in the right sidebar there's a dropdown for my labels - look under the tag "my stash" & I think it's the 2nd post that will show up

[Marieveah]

im just wodering how many nailpolishes do u hav

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@Marieveah over 1500 bottles =)

[liveforlove13]

@SimpleLittlePleasues where do you store it all? :O

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@liveforlove13 I have 3 Helmers & some plastic shoeboxes =)

[liveforlove13]

@SimpleLittlePleasues wow. i have, like, 60 bottles and i can hardly find a place for it. respect. lol :)

[iHeartNailPolish1]

@SimpleLittlePleasues 1500? WOAHHHH. i thought 100 was alot.. wow hahah!

[pinksapphire44]

China Glaze has a cream finish gray ... I love it

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@pinksapphire44 I do have that one =)

[bubblemuffinxp]

i looove the first purple :)

[irishgirlkisskiss]

snap,crackle and pop goes my nails

[kbbles]

@SimpleLittlePleasues

I'm pretty sure Barry m is a uk brand...

And LOL! I just noticed that Pleasures is spelt wrong in your YouTube username ...

[fishergirl8701]

did you get the crackel at claires because there is like 5 colors

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@fishergirl8701 yes, I showed the colors I have in a previous vid =)

[d1992minnesota]

I LOVE ULTA!!! Lol Ulta is my hotspot for cosmetic misc; Sallys is my hotspot for NAILS(cuz I'm in love with anything that has anything to do with nails :-)) and Aeriel is my hotspot for stuff for school :-) I'm definitely a dedicated subscriber to you!!

[tankersgal]

I love the unique way that the Kleen Colors crack, I'm just not patient enough to wait 22 minutes for the polish to dry, I would end up smudging/denting/completely destroying my manicure in that amount of time lol. They do look great though, and I really like the way the Ulta brand cracks too.

[pomegranite98]

Where do u get the nail wheel

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@pomegranite98 I got mine online, they're also available at Sallys =)

[BeautyKillerMF]

Oh saw a video with a silver polish and it wasn't sparkly it was " BarryM foil effect " they have gold and silver just so u know

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@BeautyKillerMF I never see that brand around here - where is BarryM available?

[klurr2k6]

@SimpleLittlePleasues BarryM is available in the UK, it's a great affordable drug store brand that stock ALOT of nail polishes, including crackles and foils aswell as other cosmetics, and just show you know, they do ship internationally! May be worth a look :) barrym.com

[Millyandmakeupmatch]

@SimpleLittlePleasues Its only availible in the uk in stores but i think they ship internationally xx :)

[JepRoweFace1]

@SimpleLittlePleasues BarryM is an english brand :)

[lexy974ever]

dELiA's has a gold crackle nail polish that I think you should try!

[lexy974ever]

dELiA's has a silver crackle polish that looks pretty promising.. !

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@lexy974ever I'll have to look there next time I'm at the mall =)

[lalalaband10]

You can buy funky fingers crackle nail polish at five below for i think 2 for 5

[MrsJustKarii]

I am tottaly not going to wait 22 minutes ............ I cant wait 5 min you are talking about 22 ...

[allyd998]

@forevermisunderstod2 oh well i think that if you put it on like regular nail polish it doesn't work as well as if you just make a thin coat here or there it looks good because it is messy looking. and i am wearing it right now and it hasn't cracked yet...

[Ibbygirl19]

Ah thank you SO MUCH for doing this swatch video Colette. :) I really appreciate your videos so much. You give me so many ideas and things to try. :) I'm just curious... will you be doing another swatch video, or a blog post with the swatches of the other polishes you got in your haul??? I'm really interested to see that Sally Hansen Midnight sky (I think it was called that) and the pumpkin spice ones. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this swatch vid. :) You're fantastic! :)

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@Ibbygirl19 I don't usually do nail wheel swatches of normal colors, just show them on the blog when I eventually wear them =)

[Ibbygirl19]

@SimpleLittlePleasues Oh, okay. :) I think I'll just pop over to CVS and see them in person then.  Thanks so much for your reply. Loved your haul. :)

[MrsxEris]

I wonder:

if nail polish dries faster when dunked into water, do these crack faster if one does so?

I didn't try yet, but my crackling polish is empty and I'd really like to know

[ramennoodlesyea]

I love your videos so much! There is no one else like you on YouTube! I cracked up when you said "sorry if my technique offends you" lol

[BreeSnow777]

For the last 2 I didn't rlly like them cuz I couldn't see the bottom coorand isn't that the whole point?

[ReikaGonzaga]

Hi. Can you help me? When I put the first color in the water, it will spread but when I try to put the second color it's not spreading, and when i try to put the 3rd color it stays the same its not spreading please help!!

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@ReikaGonzaga sometimes even colors that each spread on their own don't work well together - you just have to keep trying different colors & different combinations =)

[lilmissbunny]

I have seen a polish a company has come out that uses magnets? You heard of them before? Whats your take on it? They seem pretty cool to me =)

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@lilmissbunny I'm looking forward to it! I have seen the magnetic colors from other countries & they look cool =) unfortunately it sounds like they're going to be on the expensive side

[asingingmonkey121]

where can you find the nail wheel?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@asingingmonkey121 I got mine online, they're also available at Sallys =)

[Str8UPdork]

avon made one as well i think its called mosaic i havent used it yet but i just got it. those last two take forever to crackle but they are very pretty and unique on how the appear compare to the rest

[MsChococat99]

The last ones kinda look like snake skin!

[doctoringthetardis]

Models Own, a brand in the UK, have a silver crackle that's much less sparkly.

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@doctoringthetardis thanks =)

[blondielove17]

I have a question ? How many polishes do you have ? Btw i love your vids (:

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@blondielove17 over 1500 bottles =)

[IdaLovingMiro]

@SimpleLittlePleasues OMG! hah :D

[xxmandipants]

Is there a store around you called Five Below? We have one where I live & they have a brand called 'Funky Fingers' they just came out with a crackle.. I bought them all haha.

But, they also sell other brands like Sally Hansen and wet n wild & such. Just thought I'd let you know! :)

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@xxmandipants I haven't noticed any, but there might be one in one of the malls =)

[SebenFusion]

Wow those last two are gorgeous! They look more antique in the end then just basic "rock slide" effects. Totally worth the wait in my opinion.

[cynthialuciano]

The absolute crackle looks lovely!

Got my OPI Gold Shatter.. Hope it looks as pretty as the Nicole gold !

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@KayKSlider I got mine online but they're also available at Sallys =)

[mouse923]

Awesome....love, love, love

[tiaanaxox]

Can you just put the Cracked Nail Polish on without a colour on the base?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@tiaanaxox I think you'd need at least a base coat or clear polish for the crackle to grip, but I've never tried =)

[EABray0]

@tiaanaxox You can't put it over a bare nail.

[tinafromohio]

@tiaanaxox Nope, it doesn't work - I've tried it before. :) I suppose if you don't want a polish underneath, you could paint a clear coat of polish and then crackle on top.

[BAKARAMA]

I love the OPI crackle, though I find it rather expensive (but all OPI polish is)

I was very disappointed with the Sally Hansen crackle, it didn't work very well.

Thanks for a great video :)

[rmshack1]

hahahah idk y but i started laughing soooooo hard when she sed sorry if my tecnique offends u

[CUPCAKEhnd]

Lmao tht wiz hilarious when u dropped the bottle " keep a good grip so u don't throw it halfway across the room and scare urself 2 death like I just did

[lyndsie92]

Lol, you're so funny. 'I'm sorry if my technique offends you.' Just amazes me that people actually get mad at you for the way you put nail polish on your nail! And also when you dropped the nail polish, I giggled :) Those last two crackles are so interesting. But I don't know if I would have that kind of patience.. I'd probably end up smudging them on something ten minutes in.

[BeBeChizz1]

@lyndsie92 i laughed so hard. mainly becuz of the way she say "whoa"

[lyndsie92]

@BeBeChizz1 Haha, me too. Cuz like just as I was thinking it, she said it.

[lynays]

I have the pink colour shatter frm OPI! Got it for $10!!

[alikc25]

I Like all your vides the way you explian the tips you do in the videos,keep at it.

[spontaneouspink]

I bought a Kleancolor crackle a few months ago and I was disappointed. Not only did it take a lot to dry, but the polish just peeled off and it was horrible!

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@spontaneouspink they are very fragile - definitely need a top coat to protect them =)

[spontaneouspink]

@SimpleLittlePleasues I figured that... But still, they made me unhappy. Great swatches btw :)

[dmndrtyhippie]

maurices just came out with a crackle polish line

[MarshmallowMaiden]

It took 22 minutes but I really loved how the last two crackled.

[MarQHen]

The kleancolor (the last 2 I think) took sooo long but made like a snake skinned crackle! Super cute! But too dang long

[supurrstarr13]

the 2012 silver crackle, Apocalypse is an opaque white metallic silver. SamsBeautycom is having a special on the 2012 crackles this month buy 2 for $2.99

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@supurrstarr13 I will look for that - I think it was gone from the display when I purchased mine because the one silver I saw just reminded me of the ones I had=)

[himitsusj]

Have you tried the Sally Hansen silver? I've found it very metallic when I've used it...less glittery and more reflective.

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@himitsusj I do have it, but even that is a little too textured ... I want something more like what China Glaze Millennium would look like as a crackle =)

[VMsharks]

If you want a more "creamyer" silver sparkle crackle, go to Justice, it's a children's store just for girls, and go up to the counter and it should be there. It cracks good and it is exactly like how you described you wanted it. Amazing video as always(: I enjoyed watching it!!

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@VMsharks thanks, I'll have to check them out!

[kklautnerkk]

I have the Kleancolor crackles a tip for it to crack better is to make sure the base colour hasn't fully dried yet.:)

[13821080]

Have any of your crackles become so gloopy that you can't use them anymore?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@13821080 I have one that's a total lump because I didn't close the bottle all the way - but I've heard thinner works on them fine so I'll do that the next time I want to use it =)

[Bexx500]

I loved the music at the end!:P sounded like something out of Professor Layton!

[XxPureAddictionxX]

wat do u do with most of the nail polishes u dnt use very much

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@XxPureAddictionxX I do let close friends use it also, but I treat it like a real collection, I like having them just to look at or compare with newer colors =)

[EliAmbrosia]

I really like the laushine crackles. Have you done swatches for those? When I put it on I like to dab it on all over the nail rather than doing regular brush strokes. Gives a more abstract effect, kinda like the ulta one. All over rather than vertical. Which I love, by the way. Your swatch videos are soo useful.

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@EliAmbrosia I do have one (purple) that I received for review & I swatched it but I honestly don't remember which exact vid - might be easier to find on my blog than on youtube =)

[Sugarplume5]

where did you get the nail wheels?

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@Sugarplume5 I got mine online & they are also available at Sallys =)

[Sugarplume5]

@SimpleLittlePleasues

I have the ones from sallys but they arent flexable.... i tried to bend it and that nail broke. do u know where i can find the flexable nail wheels? thanks!

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@Sugarplume5 hmm, I figured they were all pretty simlar but I guess not. I really don't remember which site I got mine from, maybe 8ty8beuty or transdesign =)

[cherilyndria]

too bad the kleancolors take so long, by far the best effect imo, I wonder if you had a spray bottle of alcohol would help it dry faster without changing the final outcome?

[eclectivity]

great color choices, I wanted to see how that mauve would turn out...

[wolfie100001]

The kleancolor cracks so little
