China Glaze Crackle Glaze vs OPI's Black Shatter

I've been working on this post for a week now and I really am tired of staring at and editing these pictures.  So how about I post 'em, eh? :P  I brought out all three new "crackle" polishes I have to see how they compared.  Well, more like I just wanted to play with them together!  The base color is RGB's Punch, which is used under all of the rest of the polishes.  I used Clarins 220 (which I'll cover in a different post) on my index finger, the middle finger is China Glaze's Crushed Candy, the ring is China Glaze's Cracked Concrete, and the pinkie is OPI's Black Shatter.  Bottle picture (with polishes in reverse order):

Don't click if you hate crackle!

What good is picking winners if I never post them?!

Hey, remember that contest I had?  I picked winners... and now I'm gonna post 'em! :))  Without further ado, the two winners of one Black Shatter each (yup, I bought more for the contest) are icitea and dirigible.  Stine Marie has won all four colors plus Black Shatter.  Camelia, you have won the set of ten makeup brushes by Sinful, but if you'd rather have a Black Shatter, just let me know. :)  If everyone could contact me by February 17th, that would rock. :D

And since I feel like every post needs to have a picture, here's China Glaze's Zombie Zest and OPI's Simply Smash-ing! and Black Shatter:

And in other news... it's snowing.  Maybe I'll stay home and swatch today!

Any Glee fans around here?

The Sephora by OPI Glee polishes are trickling into stores now!

The polishes themselves retail for US$9.50 (did they go up in price recently?), and the following set was $24 (though I had heard it'd only be $22.) |-|

Slushied is a crème and Celibacy Club is holo, while the rest of the colors pictured are shimmers of varying sizes.  I'm missing Hell to the No, Diva-in-Training and Who Let the Dorks Out.  I hope to pick those up tomorrow.

Here's a quick picture of Sephora by OPI's Glee collection polish called Mash-Up (SE 290) compared to Katy Perry by OPI's Not Like the Movies (NL K09):
