The first nail-focused beauty blog

ALU Archives – China Glaze White Kwik Silvr

The ALU Archives is a new series focusing on older, beloved shades from the All Lacquered Up stash.

A few weeks back, we hosted a party for some of my girlfriends from high school and their hubbies. It was great getting so see the girls and have a night to catch up. One of them is a doctor on the west coast and she doesn’t make it home often so getting to see her is a treat.

Of course, I took the gathering as an opportunity to unload some of my excess polish and beauty stash which overjoyed the boyfriend to no end. The less beauty booty overtaking the house, the better. It was then that one of the girls asked me for a recommendation. She’s looking for the perfect white polish. Something that isn’t overly pearly and “grandma-ish” or chalky and white-out white-ish. I’m sure you can guess where my mind immediately went. China Glaze White-Kwik-Silvr. Possibly the best white polish EVER created.

White-Kwik-Silvr comes in the amazingly unique glass flecked formula that China Glaze is famous for. It’s sparkly without being a glitter bomb and opaque with three coats. I wish I could say two but you can’t have it all. So here you go Steph. I know I linked you to my old review but here’s a full manicure look at this stunning beauty. Is it any wonder I chose it as my favorite white in the Fanatic Favorites?


Even though White-Kwik-Silvr was released with the Surf collection almost two years ago, you can still find it online at my favorite e-tailers, 8ty8Beauty.com and Head2ToeBeauty.com

    Such a coincidence! I actually took this out last week and was thinking about what a great color it was! I think it would have made a great roller derby name too…

    Do you happen to still have this bottle? I was wondering what the code number was on the bottom of the bottle (normally 3 to 4 digits). I have the bar number (72038) but not the code. Thank you!

      Of course I have the bottle. It’s my all time fave white polish. Unfortunately, mine doesn’t have the code number you speak of. Mine is from before the formula and label switch
