Crackle nail polish

I just bought a bottle of crackle nail polish. How do you use it? There are no instructions and nothing is happening. Thanks.

Apply a bottom color, I use pink (because I have black crackle and it makes it pop) once your base color has dried completely you can start applying the crackle. The trick with crackle is avoid overlapping crackle on crackle, if you overlap it will become solid. I start in the middle of my nail and swipe down once with the crackle, then I apply it to the sides of my nails. I usually only have to swipe the crackle on my nails three times. It may take a few times but once you get the hang of it you'll love it! Good luck!

Thanks,yeah, the first time I was a bit heavy handed and had to redo it. I appreciate the tips!

just apply it over a regular coat of paint, like a top paint, and after a few mins, it will crackle!
