Sahara sapphire is metallic baby blue polish that was released in 1998, and rereleased again in 2009; Colorcopia Collection. Its really very calm looking and this was one of the few first OPI’s I owned. I didn’t like it initially as I was more into nude colors (its safer and less maniac:-)) but I was forced to purchase it by a friend.

Anyway back to this color, ya its metallic and if you notice the swatches, there is this heavy streak-ish finish. It’s just so awful to watch! I don’t have any topcoat on because I wanted to show you guys how bad the brushstrokes are.
The drying time was average and it does stay chip free for a long time so everything else is good. Only the heavy brushstrokes is a huge problem. Any idea how to get rid of them? I still cant get a solution for this. Any help?
nice colour! maybe i'll get one. putting the top coat maybe will look nicer?
ReplyDeleteYea it is:-)
ReplyDeletetop coat should be able to help:-)
I love metallics and chromes but haven't found a way to be rid of the brushstrokes entirely. Only thing I know, is that you can eliminate some with careful application, but when you have one that's super brushstrokey there really isn't anything you can do about it.
ReplyDeletehmm. Im not a huge fan of nail polishes that leave streaks. :/ i find it annoying trying to put them on my nails really carefully. D;
ReplyDeleteI suppose it's weird that I enjoy those brush streaks, they give it a nice texture. I enjoy this nail polish :)
ReplyDeleteWow! This is stunning!
