Today's shatter polish is available on Born Pretty Store, and is a nameless Chines brand called Laushine. The crackle polish comes in a variety of colours, but I picked the Laushine White Crackle Polish, at the very reasonable price of US$5.50 per bottle. At that price, it's not bad at all.
The texture of this polish is quite thin, and it dries fast. I recommend applying a slightly thicker coat, but I wouldn't advise applying multiple coats, otherwise the polish takes on a very odd looking texture and looks a little bit thin and brittle. You can see this on the ring finger - there's this bit in the middle that looks a little bit different from the rest of the nail, and that happened when I applied a second coat on that part of the nail. Otherwise, application was smooth and easy, and I have no complaints.
The polish was pretty opaque with a slightly thicker coat, and dried fast and crackled pretty nicely. All in all, I don't have any complaints about the polish at all. For the price I think it's a pretty great buy, and the Born Pretty Store has these shades in a wide range of colours. Must-have colours are white and black, of course, but some of the shades, especially the shimmer ones, are quite unusual and would interest anyone who wants a greater variety of shatter shades (e.g. green shimmer shatter, anyone?).
If you're looking for cheap crackle/shatter polishes that come in a wide range of colours, and if you don't mind ordering online, the Laushine Crackle polishes aren't a bad deal. The Born Pretty Store ships internationally, and shipping is pretty reasonable as well, so they are worth checking out.

Looks interesting...but quite thick.
