I wanted to kick off the OPI Bond Girls Liquid Sand Collection today! First up in the collection is Solitaire, a shimmery white with round silver glitters that dry to a textured finish.
Solitaire is beautiful and pristine, like glistening snow on a sunny day. It goes on with a shimmery metallic finish, but dries with the gritty sandy texture you'd expect. The formula is quite good. It goes on evenly and smoothly. The first coat is a little thin, but the second coat fills everything in nicely and reaches opacity. Dry time is a little longer, but that is expected for these textured polishes.
You can find Solitaire at your local nail salons and beauty stores such as Ulta and Dillard's for a retail price of $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

I saw swatches of this on another blog and it looked like a hot mess. Your swatch looks so much better!! It really does look like snow! I can't wait to see all of these swatches, they all look so interesting in the bottles.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! :D

I thought textured polishes would've dried a little faster, or that's what I read somewhere but I guess not all of them are the same. This one looks nice. I'd still like to put a top coat on just to see them sparkle more though lol.
ReplyDeleteMy experience with textured polish is that they tend to try slower. It takes a bit before their texture is fully visible. Hehe... I'm sure a top coat would look fantastic on this one! :-)

I didn't think I would want to own any textured polishes, but I NEED this one. Lol. It's so freaking pretty!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it? I think it's pretty too! :-)
