No it has been discontinued. I bought it a few years ago and didn't realise it was so rare until quite recently. Some of the Models Own Bettlejuice collection and the W7 Metallics look very similar from the swatches I've seen online though if you were after an alternative?

oh i know - plenty of alternatives around, just having a little "blast from the past" moment

i wear black under silver crackle, not very origninal but it works!

I think I would probably wear pink or red under silver crackle.

I've not long purchased a gold crackle but I have no idea what to wear it over, other than black of course.

Gold crackle looks great over red or dark green.

Has anyone seen the nubar polka dots? I quite fancy one of those, they look pretty.

Thank you starry. There was a red in my lovely little parcel this morning so I'll give the two a whirl sometime.

I wore an electric blue under my silver crackle, it looked amazing (i wasn't sure at first, but it grew on me) and i got a lot of compliments about my colour combination. The colour was called zoom (electric blue), it's a very old l'oreal jet set polish.I did try a vivid purple too, which looked good, but not as good as the blue.

When I tried a really bright purple under my silver crackle, the purple kind of leeched up into the silver, making it more like a lilac crackle. Was still nice, but not silver anymore. I've not had this happen with any other combination.

Have you thought about getting the 17 Magnetised Polish in Blue? It's deep, but bright too. Plus you could just use it as a normal polish .

I bought this one for Emma the other day. I'm still thinking of getting a No. 7 blue though as I have the voucher.

Does anyone have China Glaze Ruby Pumps? I've been after it for a while but I don't know how easy it is to remove being a glitter. I normally put glitters over a peel-off to get around the chore or removing but being peel-off it can easily get pulled off before I want it too.

I own Ruby Pumps. In fact I think this is the only China Glaze lacquer I own. I LOVE IT. It's not very difficult to remove either. I think it's the chunkier glitters like OPI Rainbow Connection and Golden Rainbow that are difficult to remove.

Years ago I had a manicure done with Jessica Ruby Slippers and bought a bottle but it soon became gloopy. The ChG one is so much better quality.
