OPI: Summer 2013 Bond Girls Liquid Sand Collection

I Bought This!

Aloha my dears! Today I have the Bond Girls Liquid Sand Collection from OPI. As I’ve said in the past, all these textured polishes have really caught me by surprise. I am so obsessed! I was extremely excited when I heard about this collection and for the most part OPI hit the nail on the head!

“Honey Ryder” is a pale gold textured polish with sparse silver and champagne microglitter. 2 coats but it barely needed 2. This is so luxe!

“Jinx” is an amazing shimmering orange textured polish with slight pink undertones and electric gold and red microglitter. Absolutely fabulous. No question, my fave. I literally could not take my eyes off of it. Glorious! 2 coats but once again it barely needed 2!

“Pussy Galore” is a pale pink textured polish with metallic bubblegum pink microglitter. I was worried this one would be frosty but to my surprise, it dried more metallic looking than frosty! 2 coats.

“Solitaire” is a white liquid sand with very sparse black microglitter. This has pale silver undertones. It’s also another one I feared would be frosty and although it had a bit of frostiness to it, I still really liked it! This is somewhat sheer compared to the others so I used 3 coats here.

“Tiffany Case” is an icy Cinderella blue liquid sand with aqua microglitter. My second favorite but I’m so disappointed with how badly it stains. :( I was able to get the stains off using THIS tutorial although I really hate buffing my nails because they are so thin so I just did it lightly and used some Sally Hansen “Instant Cuticle Remover” which really helps with stains too! I would make sure to use at least 2 coats of base coat. You will still get stainage but at least it helps 2 coats here.

“Vesper” has a muddy purple textured base with black microglitter. Really not a fan of this. It has the potential to be awesome but they missed the mark. Too bad since this collection is superb otherwise! 3 coats.

      I have no idea! Such a shame!

    Wow! Great swatches! By what I have seen of other swatches of Vesper it looks like you may have gotten a dud bottle. The others are beautiful.

      I’ve looked at other swatches and I thought they looked similar to mine… I could be mistaken. Either way, I’m so disappointed with the bottle I have!

    Beautiful swatches! I think I like Solitaire the best from these. I was really looking forward to Vesper but man, it looks so disappointing. Looking at your pictures it looks more gel based? I definitely agree, this could have been a pretty great polish, too bad!

      Solitaire is fab! It does have a more jelly base than the rest. I’m sure your looking at the edges of each nail, which looks purple. That’s kinda what made it weird for me, that it looks so dark (almost black) on most of the nails but the edges are purple? So odd!
