I have read a few blogs that claim China Glaze Fault Line doesn't crack as well as the rest of the polishes in the China Glaze Crackle Glaze collection. However, respectfully disagree. The formula of China Glaze Fault Line is different than the other polishes in the collection because China Glaze Fault Line has a slight shimmer throughout the polish, whereas the other lacquers are cream finishes. I've noticed the thicker I apply a coat of lacquer, the less likely the lacquer will dry with tiny cracks and more likely the polish will dry with one large crack down the nail. Because China Glaze Fault Line has a slight shimmer, it is a thicker polish overall and thus dries with less minor "cracking". The crack effect still works with a thicker application of the polish, however the cracks are less sporadic and usually larger - much like a "fault line" versus a "crack". Thus, China Glaze Fault line does exactly what its advertised to do - it dries with a large fault line in the nail, unlike the tiny cracks throughout the nail the other polishes in the collection create once they are dry.
I paired China Glaze's Fault Line with OPI's Green-wich Village for a almost Batman's Joker-like effect. I wanted my nails to be reminiscent of Batman's Joker. In the movies, the Joker always wears purple and green. Thus, I decided to apply China Glaze's Fault Line with a lime green (OPI's Green-wich Village). I applied Seche Base as a base coat, two coats of OPI's Green-wich Village, and one coat of China Glaze Fault Line for this result. Enjoy!
