New Collections

OPI Liquid Sand Nail Polish

January 8, 2013

Have you seen this new nail polish collection from OPI?

It’s the Mariah Carey collection and half of the polish in the collection is called Liquid Sand.  There are 4 color choices in this group.  They’re interesting…  I didn’t buy into any of the trendy textured polishes in the past, but one particular color in this collection seemed a bit interesting to me.

I bought mine at Ulta for $9.  The directions say to apply a base coat first followed by 2 coats of the color.  That’s it.  No top coat.  This gives you a matte finish.  I chose The Impossible.  It’s a fuchsia red color.  The glitter in the polish is big and chunky and includes little stars (I did not pick those up on my brush when I applied it).  I thought I’d like this type of polish for an accent nail rather than on all fingers.

So, what did I think?

I really like this polish!  It dries super fast and has a gritty sandpaper-like feel to it..  The background of the nail is matte with the glitter standing out and making it sparkly.  I would repurchase this polish for something fun and different.  I’ve seen swatches of the other colors on a variety of blogs and they all look like fun colors to wear.

Have you seen these yet?  What do you think?

      I can only do the easy stuff with nail art. Wish I was more artistic. Since I’m not, this sort of stuff has to do it for me. LOL! Thanks for stopping by! Stacie xo

    I love it, but it seems it would feel weird to have bumps on your nails? Does it or am I missing the point.

    Love reading about all your makeup and nail adventures, makes me feel happy.

      It is a little weird. I touch it all day long. I think I prefer this as an accent nail on each hand and the others are smooth. I think it’s just a trendy little thing. Have a great day! Stacie xo

    My daughter is obsessed with doing her nails. She would love how the glitter stands out on the nail.
