The newest nail polish trend is said to be liquid sand, which is gritty glitter with a matte finish. Actually, this liquid sand finish is so new, that I'm not sure it has reached "trend" status yet... The polish is meant to be gritty, and should be worn without a top coat. When I saw that the newest liquid sand polishes from the Mariah Carey collection were available in a package with 4 mini bottles, I knew that I had to have them!
I have only used Can't Let Go, and Get Your Number so far. The finish is definitely as described. These polishes dry with a lot of texture. The formulas in both polishes were amazing and super easy to apply. You definitely need 3 coats to see the build up of the sunken glitter and other objects. Drying time was really fast, faster than any of the cremes that I have tried. As I'm sure you can imagine, getting these polishes off was quite an ordeal. Can't Let Go was about the same as any other glitter polish. Get Your Number was a NIGHTMARE. Definitely soak your fingers in nail polish remover for at least 30 seconds. Anyway, onto the pictures! I used 3 coats of polish in each picture.
