I can't believe this is my 100th post! It doesn't feel like I've written that many but the numbers don't lie. Today I have one of OPI's liquid sand polishes from the Bond Girls collection, Solitaire. Bond movies were a staple in my house when I was a kid so anything Bond themed automatically catches my attention. Solitaire is a pearly white polish with a handful of small silver glitter. It dries to a matte textured finish.
The directions said to use two coats but I ended up using three as it still seemed a tad sheer after two. Application was easy. The only thing I dislike about the liquid sands is that they seem to stick to my skin so much better than other polishes, so this makes clean up a bit more difficult.
The above photos show three coats of Solitaire in natural sunlight. The photos below show it in shade.
As I've said before, I think textured polishes need a bit of glitter to add to depth of the textured effect. Solitaire adds to this theory because it has some glitter and it looks amazing. It's definitely a great option if you want a white polish that stands out. What do you think of textured polishes? Is this trend still going strong or starting to fade?
