If you are looking for a quick and inexpensive pick me up, try the new Shatter nail polish by OPI. Part of the Katy Perry Collection, it is in fact a teenage dream, and even fun for the mother of the teen! A black polish that “shatters” when applied over a dry colored coat, the final effect is two-tone nails that look like a spider web close up and a leopard print at a distance.

You can try different color base coats to mix it up. My daughter chose a bright gold base coat, and I went with the bubble gum pink. (I like her look better!)
OPI Black Shatter is offered as a selection at most nail salons, or you can purchase a bottle to try at home at Amazon.com.
