OPI Solitaire Swatch





This was a nice long relaxing weekend for me since I took Thursday and Friday off work. It was more of a staycation. I didn't really go anywhere or do anything special. I liked that. I usually tend to plan ahead and do stuff on my days off but all the work and activity put into it doesn't always feel like a vacation. 

White polish isn't typically something I would get excited about but this one is special. It's a liquid sand. Solitaire looks like a mix of crushed white pearl, white diamonds, and a little sprinkle of silver glitters. 
The formula is somewhat thick but easy to work with. It doesn't quite look opaque in two coats as I can still spot some faint visible nail line so I would suggest a third coat if you really want it to be completely opaque. It dries fairly quick, like most texture polish do. I love the classy chic look of this white polish. 

What do you think of textured nail polish? Do you have a favorite? I only like the ones that are sparkly. I don't like those with a matte finish.

  4. That's really interesting! I've seen some liquid sands that were kind of "meh" on their own but with a topcoat--bam! Suddenly the texture could really shine (pun intended), since it wasn't all matte and flat looking. I agree though the shimmery/glittery ones are much more interesting. I'm not terribly into mattes overall.

    1. Yeah matte isn't really a favorite nail polish finish for me either. I love how top coats or layering polish can add more oomph to a shade that looks boring.

  5. This is beautiful. I could definitely see myself wearing this one. I finally stepped onto the textured nail polish bandwagon and bought two of Zoya's Pixie dust polishes in Liberty and Stevie. I'm surprised at how much I actually like them.
