Loved the aqua blue, will be great for any season! A bit of streaking with first and second coats but completely opaque with third coat. Dries easily and great lasting power. On the 5th day noticed a bit on chipping on the sides but nothing major. No peeling either. Would definitely recommend and re-purchase again! This collection is said to be DBP, toluene and Formedhye free, a bonus!!

OPI Nail Lacquer Review
Reviews
Tips: Use three coats, with two coats you will encounter streaking!
I just ADORE this colour. As with all OPI it glides on beautifully, colours beautifully and so far has lasted very nicely. The colour itself is just divine and will be gracing my nails all autumn and winter....and probably spring and summer as well! One of the things I love most about this colour is it's versatility. Apply one coat for a more subtle look for work and day time. Apply 2 coats for a darker more striking look and either leave it matt or add a top coat for more shimmer.
Unlike other liquid sand nail polishes I found the finish of this one to be MUCH more enjoyable and reminding me less of sandpaper!!! So overall I say BUY IT!!! I know I'm certainly going to when this bottle is finished!
Tips: Play around with the application, try one layer or two or even three! Leave it matte or make it shine with a top coat!
This nail polish did exactly what it said it would do. The great thing about this nail polish is that it is long lasting. So far I have had it on for 3 days and not one chip and that is with doing household chores. Although the colour is not my favourite OPI colour, it is very sparkly and would be great if you had an outfit to match. Although the instructions say do not add a top coat, I did. This still meant that there was a 'sand' texture and it is still a matte finish but lasts longer!
Tips: For a gold look apply only one coat, 2 coats makes a dark bronze
LOVED this nail polish. The colour is a lovely bronze colour with gold and silver flecks through it. It dries with a sand paper sort of finish which is perfect for people like me who always seem to dent my regular nail polish, this isnt a problem though since this polish dries super fast. Literally takes about 5-10 minutes to dry fully compared to regular nail polishes who are not completly hard even after an hour or more. Loved this polish, is a great colour, interesting finish and so quick to dry. Will be using this a lot in the cooler months. Remember to use a base coat to protect your nails.
Tips: I used two coats of this. I waited for the first coat to be semi dry before applying the second (this literally took a few minutes, you can easily tell when its dry when the 'sand' starts to appear). Waiting for it to dry helped the second coat have something to hold onto rather then just moving the colour around your nail. If the sand finish is not your thing, try a top coat over it to get that shiny smooth finish, shouldnt take too much away from the sandy/matte finish. I would say that this polish will be a wee bit harder then usual to remove, soak a cotton ball in nail polish remover and hold it on the nail for a few minutes, this will loosen up the polish and it should slide off easily.
I am a regular OPI user infact its the only nail polish i used i expected the liquid sand would be like the glitter nail polishes such as teenage dream, gone gonzo etc ,I really hated this nail polish as i was applying it i thought the colour was fowl and very translucant , but as it dried i found the colour changed to a nicer blue and it is super sparkley the texture feels exactly like sand if you rub your fingertip over it once dry, VERY COOL!! i found it dried really quick also and that doing 2 coats makes it extra glamorous :) love it , would definitly buy liquid sand opi again
Tips: 2 coats for perfection
Excellent product, glides on easily,brush is easy to use, the colour payout is excellent,its so glamorous! Feel like a star!
I was so excited to recieve this colour, The polish when applied with two coats is true to colour when viewing through the bottle. I really love this as it really suits any outfit and looks amazing for the autumn/winter months. After applying one coat it was quite an transparent more glittery colour, after applying a second coat it became more opaque and metallicy looking, Two coats were enough for me to get the perfect finish. I find that it doesnt take very long to dry to a hard finish compared to other polishes where it can slide around the nail within an hour if your not careful. It really looks like sand! The sheen under light fluctuates between matte, metallicy and sparklyjust like real sand! and the texture is very different to other polishes ive had, but isnt a bad thing either,good for hiding any imperfections in your application so you cant do any wrong! Lives up to its name; Give it a go, you wont be disappointed xx
Tips: Apply base coat to protect your nail, apply 2-3 coats, no need to apply top coat if you want the liquid sand effect, it chips less then other polishes xx
I LIKE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!
This was the first time that I had the opportunity to try an OPI nail polish and I loved the results. It went on for a smooth and flawless finish, was quick drying and was a beautiful colour. Also I didn't have any problems with it chipping quickly either, which is a problem I usually have with nail polishes. I loved the liquid sand texture of this nail polish, it felt a little rough but I enjoyed the textured feel of it. I recommend anyone to try this nail polish as it is great quality and the fact it dries quickly makes it even more worth it.
Tips: My tips would be: If you don't like the feel of the liquid sand textured look use a top coat to smooth it over - it will still look textured but won't feel it.
As the title says -it sparkles in the sun! Apart from the amazing texture and super easy to use wide brush ,this would be the most stand out thing for me.I had to put three coats on to get a nice colour-as it dryed it faded out.
Tips: If you are into your Autum/Winter colours this is for you.I would say three coats will give you a nice rich deep colour :) Thanks for the trial Beauty Review xx
