Most pure liquids (water, methanol, and acetic acid, like the last person said) are covalent and their pure solutions are not very polar. Adding an ionic solute such as salt (NaCl) makes the solution polar, with the ionic compound dissolved and dissociated in the solution.

However, yo can have ionic pure liquids (for example, molten salt) if you heat up an ionic compound until it melts, so I don't think all pure liquids are covalent!
