Springtime is the perfect time to push the beauty envelope — and one of the easiest ways is through your nails! This season, nothing’s hotter than manicures with texture (think glitter, wild prints, and funky decals). We found a nail polish that makes this trend super-easy to DIY at home.

OPI Shatter Nail Polish creates a cool, 3-D cracked effect on nails when you layer it over any solid color. Available in Silver, Black, Blue, Navy and Turquoise, the OPI Shatter shades add instant edge to any ensemble — plus, your mani will be a total conversation starter. A few ESSENCE staffers have tried it, and no one ever believes we created such funky-cool nail art at home!

OPI Silver Shatter and Turquoise Shatter Combo Set, $17, amazon.com
