O.P.I - Alcatraz...Rocks

Below I have a swatch of one of the liquid sands from the new O.P.I San Francisco fall collection! I am so in love with this liquid sand. At first glance it looks like just a dark glitter but there are so many colors in it it's amazing. Even if you aren't into liquid sands you sure will need this!

 Alcatraz...Rocks is a gorgeous dark navy/purple (dare I say blurple?) color with tons of gold shimmer in it. At different lights I catch lighter purple, pink, dark blue, and even some green shimmer. It was too much for my camera!




These two out of focus photos show the other shimmer colors hidden in there a little better. 





Definitely one of the prettier liquid sands in this new collection! I got this at a discount store luckily, but I'm hearing people have to do some store hopping for this hot item! So go get yours. Like now. Yesterday even.

First OPI Liquid Sand!


Today I have a swatch of Jinx, a lovely texture polish from the OPI Bond Girls Liquid Sand collection! This is also my first texture polish!
Jinx is a gorgeous warm red/orangey-coral polish with golden shimmer throughout the polish.




The sun was not in my favor for swatches today :(



 But it came out today! So I took a couple more photos in more intense sunlight.
The golden shimmer really comes alive in bright sunlight. This color makes me want a juicy tangerine or an orange Popsicle mmmm!



Gold gold gold!
The formula on this was amazing also. Opaque in two coats. No top coat of course or else that would defeat the purpose of the texture :} 
I'm not a person who likes bows, big rhinestones, ribbons etc... on my nails, so these liquid sand polishes everyone has been coming out with are a happy medium for me!
I would definitely recommend this unique shade to anyone! I wasn't sure if it flattered me, but I fell in love with it over time. Wore it for two days even! I couldn't stop feeling my nails either ha! It's not super gritty or anything. And removal is also a breeze! Nothing like removing a glitter like I thought.
