i loved the shattered look because you can change ur base colour and it would be a different change.The base colour has to be completely dry and have a couple coats on it, before you apply the shatter coat over it.

I loved the concept of the shatter ! When I did get it I was a bit disappointed with the finished looked as it dried with a matte finish - Only having it for a couple of month the lacquer become thick and unusable :( was very disapointed
Tips: - Try not to leave the bottle open too long when you are using it as the chemical that makes the shatter effect reacts with oxygen and thats why it does become gugly over time
Shatter can only be pulled of with certain outfits.
If not done right it can come across as tacky.
You really need to ensure you pick the right base colours to go with the shatter.
Tips: Make sure you have enough polish on the brush to apply just one stroke of shatter to the nail otherwise it can get bulky and ruin the entire nail look
I like the idea of this, But I found it to be a little tricky for me and it dried up and clumped up easily.
I love the look that the opi shatter creates however I find it a bit tricky to apply. I always get some nails looking awesome while others look average.
Tips: If you muck up your nail polish the shatter is great to cover it up and still have awesome looking nails without redoing your nails.
a bit glugy (is it even a word) . Needed to be used quick as it kept drying to like a powder. Unsure if it was just the one i was using or if it happends to a few? Nice colours though
personally, some of the colours are much better than others in this range as the shatter is more visible and the colour is more vibrant ie- the blue, red and black were the strongest. what I probably dislike about the shatters is that if you go over the shattered part again if you missed a spot, it doesn't give the same effect and goes all weird.
Tips: if you find the shatter bad, then just apply 2 or 3 coats of the shatter polish over a base coat, the polish won't really shatter and you get a full colour.
I have used black, white and dark green shades of OPI shatter and of the three prefer the white. I especially like the white for Summer over coral tones, hot pinks, baby blues etc. I only ever put this on my toes as I find it a bit tacky looking on my fingers but think its a neat little time saver when you don't have time for a pedicure. It gives nails a bit of character and life as opposed to a straight colour. I have had problems with the polish becoming gluey and clumpy so probably wouldn't buy it for myself (I only tried as I was given some) as it's really expensive.
Tips: Make sure its stored somewhere cool - can turn gluggy.
Does what it says it does. But need to be careful as the more you put on in one go, the worse it looks. A light application looks the best. It was good when it was the "in style" look but I don't seem to use it anymore. I have the dark blue one, which I love the colour of. It can look good but also can look bad. One of throes purchases that when brought I used a lot of and now not really at all. Just sits in the cupboard!
I never personally liked the shatter look, but in saying that they are good polishes, as long as you put on thinly, too think and they definitely do not "shatter", but they have definitely done there dash in the popularity category
