Keep It Kinky: Natural Hair and Beauty: Easy Red and Black Crackle Nail Design

I wore Berry Red nail polish by LA Colours with a random black polish on my middle finger for two days before applying Color Club's black crackle polish to my red nails. As usual, I used Won't Chip® by Orly as my topcoat. LA Colours has some really nice nail colours in their collections.

Berry Red by Jordana Covered and black Colour Club Crackle Nail Polish

Berry Red by itself does not last very long on the nail and chips quite easily. The polish on the tips of my nails seemed to rub down very quickly too. Add a topcoat, however, and you're good to go.

I LOVE crackle combinations because they tend to reinforce the nail which minimizes chipping and tearing. The combination lasted me four days with only a little rubbing at the tips as seen in the picture of my nails below. I got a couple of chips on day 5 but I could really wear this for another day.

So in all, the colours combined lasted me 7 days. I loved it. It's Friday now and time to do my nails again. Let me know what you think about the combination.

Tip!

If you're trying to grow out your nails and want to reduce tearing or chipping, add a crackle for reinforcement. Your nails will be long and strong in very little time.
