What is this? It doesn’t go away when I shake the bottle. It’s never used, and looked normal when it arrived. Now it’s been white for a few months already.
Sometimes there’s weird settling that never seems to go away. I have a few bottle that have weird parts, but it doesn’t change the polish application.

Looks like there was some type of pigment in there that separated out and settled. I have a few bottles like this from various brands. Try giving it a really good mix, I’ve seen vintage dusties on tiktok use a stirrer stick to mix up some old polishes that have settled titanium dioxide, which could be helpful!
I’ve not found that it’s really visibly effected the quality in any of mine like this, maybe just makes it slightly less opaque on the nail I would guess — not enough to notice in my experience tho.
